    Sometimes you feel like a mid, sometimes you don't....

    First city ride 7 miles with the Bosch Cargo line mid drive. More of a workout, a lot of gear changing, slower average speed, but I can't say I didn't like it.

    My first Mid Drive

    Got it installed last night and made a grocery run this morning. No issues whatsoever with the load. Much more of of a workout and a lot of gear changes but I can't say I didn't like it.

    Sure a few short rides is not enough to overcome the mid drive learning curve after riding hub drives for months. But... I will continue to ride the cargowagon Neo mid drive bike and make a grocery run this week. Still for my street riding all the shifting seems like unnecessary wear and tear...

    My first Mid Drive

    Got the derailleur adjusted and found a second key located in the second battery mount. In first Low gear the derailleur idler cage is very close to tire and still takes two clicks to get to second gear.

    My first Mid Drive

    Indeed I should have looked at page 38 lol First ride impressions very light weight feeling small. Deore shifter needs adjustment but no barrel adjusters. Nice that the battery and wheel lock are keyed the same but they only supplied one key with code.

    My first Mid Drive

    I haven't ridden yet but I can see why Cannondale needs a pro bike shop to assemble them. No instructions so I had a lot of trial and error especially with the front fender mounting and lock assembly. Missing clamp for dropper seatpost cable so that is not working yet. Miss mash of hardware in a...

    My Radwagon 5 arrived

    Rode to store today with best ride comfort to date. Modded seat post really works nice now. The Cannondale cargowagen neo will be hard pressed to beat this setup but we will see. It is out for delivery today. I do have some plans for it.

    My Radwagon 5 arrived

    They can ship to your local dealer and you can return if you don't like it but I think you will. At least the eBay dealer I bought from accepts returns.

    I watched some YouTube videos and had it in cart then out of cart several times but when comparing to other ebikes with similar specs the value was unbeatable. I will post my experience. So I uploaded the flow app on my phone in anticipation of unlocking full power The motor is capable of more...
