Folks there are multiple links out on the Rad website for the owners manual for the RadCity bike. This is the most current version (check the revision number on the last page 4.004. What I just got with my new bike is 4.002. 4.004 has a page specifically addressing battery balancing...

I rode a Raleigh Detour while up in Petoskey Michigan. Was very impressed with the bike. Probably would have bought one until I called Raleigh and found that sales noted that the Detour's were out of stock and not expected to become available until March of 2020. Way too long to wait and I...

My derailer guards had a slight bend to them on both RadCity bikes that were delivered today. The Velofix mechanic noted that it wasn't unusual to find that and that it was easy to correct and then make any necessary adjustments to the derailer. She rode the bike after that and had me ride it...

In my case my carrier is one that can be used inside a pickup or in a van. It requires you to remove the front wheel. So I'll be pulling the battery and front wheel off prior to lifting the bike into the van and securing it to the holder. As far as the state of the bike, better to expect the...

Agreed on the weight. When riding it’s not noticible. Well I did appreciate the Velofix vehicle. As far as the bikes go I figure I'd be preaching to the choir!

Well today was assembly day and my worst fears did not come true. The bikes came out with no damage. The derailer guard on each bike needed to be pulled out a slight bit on each bike. Probably because of pressure on them during shipping, but all else was just great. Batteries were at 75%...

Looks like I probably need to add a torque wrench that will register in newton meters. I do have one that works in foot inches but obviously you can't get an exact torque setting in nm due to the conversion process. I'd like to find one without having my pocket picked, but I guess like...

However unless something changes, we know that an additional 10% charge is going to be levied on Chinese goods in late August. For any Chinese produced product there is a decision point that businesses and American individuals will have to make. How that translates to Rad is unknown at this...

The Fedex guy backed his truck into my drive to my garage door. It was a low bodied panel truck and he lifted the back door and slid it out. Probably no more that a foot to the ground. Was very easy to get it down on the ground and he helped me as we pulled the bikes out. I did notice the...

I just spoke to technical support and they said to document with pictures and if any problems occur, call them, provide pictures of the parts if damaged or defective, and Velofix's estimate to make the replacements. Rad will send the parts to me and reimburse any costs from Velofix for coming...

Both bikes showed some heavy impacts on the container with the sealing tape popped open. Both bikes show punctures or a tearing of the shipping container. I looked at the points of the tearing and I saw a brake disk right next to the cardboard on one bike. Did not see any scratches but any...

Here’s bike 2

Just got 2 RadCity bikes delivered. Here is the state of the cartons with the bikes inside. Here’s bike 1.

The interesting aspect for me is when I was riding the Pedego's up in Petoskey Michigan. I was on the bike trail and 99% of the time I was being passed by non electric folks. Only time I passed any riders was when there were smaller kids riding with the parents and other family members...

Yeah that's the boiled down version, but obviously the city fathers of Mackinac Island want to keep their no motorized vehicle rules on the island pristine. But notice the official will accept a verbal claim of a disability. Personally I would have loved to have had the access to a pedal...

I continued to be curious about the ban on e-bikes on Mackinac Island. I wrote a note to the Pedego store on the island about e-bike usage. Here was their response to me. Personally it makes little sense from a business standpoint from having a Pedego store on the island, unless they rent...

Well I ordered and my brother in law combined the order with mine, so we got another $200 off the selling price by buying 2 on one order. No shipping charges and no sales tax in Missouri. Was a wonderful deal for us both @ $1,399 each. He's will be coming over when they're delivered and we...

Well I was surprised when the dealer told me it was a state law, and the crazy thing was that the Pedego I rode still had the throttle active if you held it open. Obviously I saw no signs on any path or Mackinac Island regarding e-bikes. With all the bikes I saw on the island, I never saw a...

Mike’s, not the style I was looking for. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder! Want fenders! Thanks for the recommendation.

William, didn't notice the date of your original post so you are obviously much further along than I am in the process. Good to hear things went well with you.
