    2 Rad Power Bikes in the back of a Subaru Outback?

    Or if you really want to keep them inside the Outback. A floor thru axle mount. I know Rocky Mount has one and I believe Yakima does also - they're like 80 bucks each. You'd need to do some drilling to mount on the floor and take off the front wheel. Looks like there is probably enough head...

    2 Rad Power Bikes in the back of a Subaru Outback?

    Depending on the year, I think the Outack is about 2" short. RadRover 6 is 77" long. The 2022 Outback rear length from the 1st row (front seats) is 75". You would need to remove the front wheels, then it would fit fine. FYI - I carry a Radmini folded in the back of my Crosstrek all the time...

    Espin Aero... any firsthand feedback?

    No firsthand experience with the Aero. But have you seen the crazy promotion Espin is running thru the end of the year? Buy one at $799, get the 2nd one for $399. https://www.espinbikes.com/pages/2021-end-of-year-sale

    Single Speed Recommendations

    Looked at all. I have the Roadster V2. I really like it - a lot. Easy to ride, light, quick, nimble and easy to maintain. And would think I'd also like their gravel version. The Rize was my 2nd choice (has throttle option which I could care less about). The Aero is 10# more. Don't know...

    *FINAL POST* for my Roadster v2, after 8000 miles

    Actually the Rize can be set to class 1, 2, 3 in the controls (and if you get the throttle) and I believe they even provide different stickers when you receive it. But that being said I really doubt it weights 34#'s and agree with Solliex I just REALLY like the V2. So no regrets at all. In...

    Taylor57, have you looked at the Rize Fixie? Hydraulic disc brakes, kickstand, lights, 3 amp charger, single speed, class 1, but has a throttle option ($20). Still low weight at 34# supposedly. A little more expensive at $1499 + $20 for the throttle.

    Oh btw. If you want to check if your front axle is spinning ok. Lift the front wheel and slightly rotate it. When it comes to a stop it should reverse spin a little before coming to a stop.

    *FINAL POST* for my Roadster v2, after 8000 miles

    Thx Solliex for the video. I have to say I really like this bike and frankly I'm really surprised just how easy it is to ride. I actually like the narrow handlebars - really nimble. The bike arrived with the front wheel really out of true. Box was ok, so a QC issue it seems. Ride1Up was...

    *FINAL POST* for my Roadster v2, after 8000 miles

    I wondered the same thing as I appreciated the great reviews by PSm and Solliex (thanks you two!!). I did just get a 52cm Roadster on their sale and so far really like it though it's pretty early. I might give my impressions later, but it is a really easy bike to ride. I did think about the...

    Rolling a mini

    My "older" mini (2018) spends a lot of time folded in my Subaru Crosstrek and has been all over the country (I have a couple of other bikes that I can also get in, but the mini is the easiest). The 2018's supposedly were a little lighter. But remove the seat and battery and that cuts 8-9#'s...

    Ride1Up Roadster V2 Reviews

    Maybe everyone knows this by now, but the Roadster will later this year have a battery extender. https://ride1up.com/product/roadster-battery-add-on/. I did reach out to them to ask if the whole extender could added if needed for longer runs AND then removed when not needed (the battery is...

    Rad Rover handle bar end mirror suggestions/reccomendation

    ^ Agree with Graysco242. I have them on my ebikes. Seem sturdy and can be taken on and off with ease.
