    My nightmarish experience with Rad Power.

    Don't trust anyone who does not understand the basics. Kittens are added to the world to balance the negative, not taken away. Have no fear, no kittens are being harmed by the purchase of any e-bike or e-bike component. Any humans harmed by such purchases are technically contributing to...

    A look inside a Juiced 52V 13Ah battery.

    I looked and I don't have any pics of the BMS that show anything more really. In one of the pics above the model number though is visible on the sticker. I was trying to do as little disassembly as possible. I've attached one that shows it end-to end, but still only from the heatsink side, so...

    A look inside a Juiced 52V 13Ah battery.

    I'm not sure if I have more pics, but I can confirm it is a passive top balancing BMS like almost all BMS in battery packs these days that are aimed at consumers that are less than 5kW. Ignore all the BS on the internet about how to extend the live of the Lithium batteries even from the...

    Battery Failure on Rize RX Pro

    sure, just check the output voltage of the old charger you dropped, that's what voltage and multimeters are for.

    New Rad Rover 6

    RAD is trying to get more money for their service now; "making it easy" is no longer their goal. Unfortunately to support their mobile service and on-going business they are now more interested in proprietary or at least non-standard components.

    Specialized Turbo Tero Step-Through 3.0 Review (Demo Ride)

    If equipped does not work, hard with FS bike, then it's just a casual trail bike, not 'long adventure' class. A few tweaks to the latest Vado seems the way to go.

    Priority Bicycles just launched the most affordable Gates belt mid-drive e-bike

    I'm shocked at such a reply… this has me worried although i doubt i will buy a Current as they are not even stocking batteries yet, but i was considering another bike of theirs.

    Direct drive + Pinion gearbox + Gates drive system = Lowest maintenance powerful E-bike

    On a belt drive though i would think you are not replacing the cogs very often or i would guess ever for most people? Just the belt for frequent riders or off road riders.

    New Rad City, as expected now a geared hub

    The custom motor and drop out spacing go hand in hand. The motor wires are on the non drive side and do not come out through the center of the axle. This requires some extra space I guess with their motor. Looks like they took a page from the Grin motor design book, but probably not for the...

    New Rad City, as expected now a geared hub

    Nice bike, but sad to see the price increase along with all the no-name (RAD) components. With all the no name components and drive train down grade I would have expected they could hold the price even in the current environment. I suspect their markup on this is now much more than in the...

    2022 Rize Models - Thoughts/Comments/Experiences From Owners

    Actually that's not really much use; it maybe closer but, the profile and actual circumference of the inflated tire will be different for different 27.5" tires, and their is a fair variety in that size. Some of the popular wider ones are actually near equivalent to 29" tires. The software...

    2022 Rize Models - Thoughts/Comments/Experiences From Owners

    If you just bring them the front wheel, rotor, and spokes and ask them to do the repair, how will they know it's an e-bike?
