RadMini was on my list too, I like it a lot and given the awful customer experience I had with Voltbike I regret not going with it! I would have gladly payed 300CAD more to get a quick support instead of waiting for weeks for an answer! RadMini shares the same motor and wheels with the Mariner...

Are you talking about the display panel (the one that shows the PAS level and speed), or about the battery level indicator on the battery itself? The panel should stay on, the battery charge level on the battery will briefly light on when you press the power button on it and then stay off. Good...

@PCDoctorUSA Yes, after 3 emails (no answer to the first two!) and 3 weeks waiting time I finally received the pin yesterday! I must confess that I am very disappointed with Voltbike support and their lack of responsiveness and consideration for their clients! I had to mention legal actions on...

Yes, I wish the weather was fine every day to go to work by bike! I have a paved (asphalt) bike path on the entire commute with trees and grass on the border, beautiful flat road. It takes me the same time by bike or by car (50 minutes), so I definitely enjoy more the bike, even though I need to...

Hy guys, Just to let you know, yesterday, shortly after hitting the 600km mark, on my way home from work, the pin that locks my Mariner 2018 frame in place detached and felt somewhere. I did not realize until this morning when I tried to leave for work and the bike's frame opened! You can find...

I have placed the order for a new 2018 black Marine on April 3rd and I have received it 14 days later, on April 16th! Today was the first day I could actually ride it (to work), so here are my impressions so far! :) The delivery The bike was delivered by Vitran Express. The initial delivery...

Not yet, still snowing here :(. I plan to test ride it as soon the weather allows me to and order it this spring. I'll be back with my review! :)

I guess you're right, I should wait until spring since winter is already here! My commute will be mainly on reserved bike paths with a couple of traffic light. I will be very happy if I'll be able to reduce the travel time to 50 minutes! :)

Thank you for the quick and detailed answer! It certainly helps! :)

@Cnugget Thank you very much for your answers! Great explanation and details, as always! I intend to use the Mariner as a daily commute in the Montreal metropolitan area and the terrain has around 60m elevation from home to work for ~24km distance. Google Maps says it should take me around 1h...

Oh, sorry about that! I asked too many questions and I got confused on which one you answered, my bad! What about the autonomy and the maximum (comfortable) cruising speed you can achieve using the power assist mode (and pedaling in the same time)?

Hi guys! What is the maximum comfortable cruising speed for you in PAS mode? I mean how fast can you go on the Mariner for extended periods of time, until the battery is drained?

Yes, I realize this bike is heavier than a regular one, but the electric motor should help, right?

Hello, I am looking to buy a Voltbike Mariner 500w Limited and use it as my daily commuter (around 50km total per day). I did a lot of reading about this bike on this forum (thank you all for your tremendous contribution, I have learnt a lot!), but I still have questions that you could help me...
