    And how much did you pay for that 3000w bike? 20mph isn't "ridiculously too slow" on a bike that's appropriately priced for it. Sure, money can buy a faster eBike. And in other news, water is wet.

    Rear Rack installation for RadRover

    Nice. I like that one a lot better than the "BlackBurn Outpost" rack they previously showed in their how-to video. However, I see this (very important) note on their page too: The "RadRover Rear Rack" is only compatible with the 2016 RadRover model and will not mount to the 2015 RadRover...

    Yes, I used the lower hole too. Glad you got it sorted!

    RadRover U Lock

    I recently got a new HipLok Superbright , that wraps around the seatpost (or waist, when riding, as a belt.) It's a heavy duty chain like the Kyptonite NY Fahgettaboudit lock (mentioned above) but flatter. It also glows at night- I also have the same "Club Utility" lock mentioned above, the...

    You're funny :D

    So, tell me Einstein, how fast can the RadRover motor go, without any resistance, if there was no speed governor in place?

    Something else explains the difference, then. The Ibera rack? I dunno. I just know how fast mine's been riding, in real-world conditions. Maybe our speedometers aren't in sync. I don't care enough about the 2-3 mph difference to want to investigate further. And for what it's worth, riding...

    The current RadRover, with its current specs, in real-world conditions, carrying a 150+ pound rider? Not in my experience, it won't. And I'm perfectly fine with that :)

    No. Not that it matters, it's not like the bike and its current motor can push it faster than 22 or 23 MPH anyway. Because, physics...

    Yes, my original RadRovers are set to that now...

    They are. I'm a RadRover owner and I set higher numbers myself.

    Rear Rack installation for RadRover

    Not yet - more like 20 - 25... but with this new setup, I have no doubt it'd be fine with 55...

    Rear Rack installation for RadRover

    UPDATE: As it turns out there are threaded holes by the RadRover's brakes. So I used the disk brake mounting pegs that came with the Ibera IB-RA5, to fasten the legs of the rack to those top threaded holes. I then used the P-Clamps to fasten the rack’s arms to the seat-stay instead. It feels...

    Rear rack for Sondors

    I am very pleased with my Ibera PakRak Bicycle Touring Carrier Plus+ (IB-RA5) It has a "quick-release bag mounting system" and Ibera obviously sells bags that click in compatibly. It fits perfectly on my Sondors, and is rated for up to 55 lbs.

    Would like to go faster!

    Sure, but at least that's due to the limits of the hardware (and physics) and not artificially limited by the speed governor in the controller. Perhaps to make things faster then, you're looking at upgrading the bike's hardware: controller, motor, wheel, chains, tires, etc. And pedaling a...

    Wrong, it is 40 kmh which equates to 24.85 mph.

    Rear Rack installation for RadRover

    Let's talk about compatible rear racks for the RadRover. I've done some searches online and have seen folks asking, without getting specific answers. The RadRover's lack of pre-drilled mounting holes or brazeons makes it a bit trickier. Rad Power posted a video of the "BlackBurn Outpost"...

    When using throttle only, RadRover's LCD and controller enforce a 20 MPH maximum from the motor. Rad Power set this deliberately to match the legal limit in most locations for use on road. My Sondors eBike shipped with the same speed governor, but I was able to use it's KT-LCD3 to increase...
