    Another deal I could not pass up on eBay this time

    A couple of things right off the bat the radwagon 5 has centerstand and the longer rear rack will accommodate the larger 27 gal tote box I just bought (under $10 from Walmart) So instead of having three separate totes for 22 gal total capacity on the Aipas I can just use the one with 27 gal...

    Another deal I could not pass up on eBay this time

    Try to get a radwagon 5 as many of the issues from the version 4 have been improved considerably. Also tire size is standard 20 inch versus 22" odd ball size. https://www.radowners.com/index.php

    The last upgrades for my Aipas

    I had a trailer but didn't like the way it bounced around empty so I gave it to my son. With the heavier stuff in the side totes now which are ahead of the rear axle virtually all of the wobble is gone now and the bike feels lighter when loaded. Taking of that 7 pound rear basket really helped that.

    Rode to grocery store today with new tote setup. First thing I noticed was the louder it sounded, tire and motor noise seemed amplified but I got used to that ok. The old bags muffled the sounds. Next the bike just felt lighter and more nimble. After loading the groceries which was so much...

    New setup is now lighter than before I removed the heavy rear rack and bags and it was ok then so I expect it to be even better now that it is lighter.

    Removed about 7 lbs, counting hardware, of high rear weight by attaching tote directly to rear rack. Cleaner look and much easier access no more bungees.
