    Cargo ebike for two adults occasionally

    Hi there, just a few comments. It seems like a longtail cargo bike could work well for you. Certainly the xtracycle with a bafang will work well with regard to the drive assist, but I wonder if the low deck (where your son would sit) would be problematic as he is so tall. Usually the low decks...

    Commuter Bike for Female, 350 pounds, $3500?

    Some of the bikes from radpowerbikes could be good fits, depending on your preferences. The radcity has very traditional bike "looks" but is sturdy and well set up as a commuter.

    Radwagon vs Yuba Spicy Curry vs Yuba Spicy Curry Bosch?

    Shifting was/is fine. It is not a high end drivetrain but plenty adequate for the purpose. As far as brakes are concerned, they are okay. I just feel like I would like a better brake given that crazy hill I live in and the type of "cargo" I carry. Another member of the forum with a radwagon has...

    Radwagon vs Yuba Spicy Curry vs Yuba Spicy Curry Bosch?

    Hi there, I can't completely answer your question but I can give you some input. I live in a hilly area, have two kids that need hauling to daycare and about a year ago I was looking also at the spicy curry and the radwagon. I eventually decided to take a bet on the radwagon because of the...

    Any RadWagon owners hauling two kids?

    I carry them both in the rear deck with the caboose. I bought a yepp seat for the little one originally, but it turned out it is a little bit of a pain to install the adaptor in the wagon, so I ended up setting that in a different bike. They both ride fine in the caboose either together or...

    Any RadWagon owners hauling two kids?

    Hey SurfHawk! You just found yourself a real world example of the usage you describe. I've had my radwagon for 1 year and I use to haul my 3 and 4.5 year old to and from daycare with a caboose mounted on the rear rack. They fit fine and I expect they will fit for quite a while. The only issue we...

    Radwagon fixes, upgrades, modifications

    Windmill, could you give the exact model of the brakes you installed? I was thinking of making the same upgrade to cable actuated hydraulic brakes in my wagon and could use the info. Also, did you keep the original rotors? Any other things to watch out for in an install? Thanks!

    RadRover child carrier or child trailer

    The seat is mounted on the rack in the back (there is some type of adaptor, but I forget the details). Both our 2 and 4 year old have ridden in the seat btw, it works well.

    Do you get more exercise riding an electric bike?

    Regardless of sweat levels (seriously, who cares?). I wear a heart rate monitor for my commute, which is sometimes done in the ebike and sometimes on a regular non-assisted bike. I find my level of effort to be similar but of a much shorter duration in the ebike because I am going faster and...

    $5k budget, fat tire+ child seat

    As someone said above, a cargo bike will work for you, but it is not your only option. I take my 2 and 4 year olds on my radwagon cargo bike, but my husband has his fat bike (radrover) set up for carrying one kid and if works great too and is great fun when riding kidneys.

    Replacing my SUV with an E-Bike

    Hi there, did you get your bike already? I thought I would add my input here since my use case is similar. I got a radwagon to haul around my 2 and 4 year olds to activities and to commute to work once in a while. The frame works great for this purpose and the kids love riding in the bike and...
