I bought one unseen. I was about the 60th contributor to their Indiegogo campaign, so I also had to wait about 4 months to receive my bike, plus I live in the UK so sending it back wouldn't have been an option. It was great for climbing hills. When the Tour de France visited the UK in 2014 it...

I feel exactly the same way. I've been considering various options to make the RadRover a bit safer when going slowly. 1. Loosen the brakes so that there is more movement from the lever between disengaging the motor and applying the brakes. The rider can pull the lever slightly to shut off the...

Really pleased to see you finally got your bike. You're going to have a lot of fun tomorrow when you get the battery!

My bike arrived this morning. Can't believe it only took 4 days to ship it to the UK. Everything was packed really well and it all went together easily. Its bigger than I was expecting and also faster and more powerful. Just finished my first ride - travelling home from work. The Tour De France...

I got my tracking number on Tuesday and it said the expected delivery date was Tuesday next week. I thought that was a bit optimistic since I live in the UK and Monday is a bank holiday, but I've just seen that my bike is already in the UK! Hopefully I'll be riding my RadRover next week. I can't...

I've never heard of packages being returned while in transit. I just hope it's not a serious issue.

Awww man! I feel your disappointment, I know I would be totally gutted. After waiting all this time and getting so close to receiving your bike, it's now going in the wrong direction. I hope the problem gets sorted out quickly for you, and that your first ride on your new bike won't be in the...

I would be much happier if the bikes were checked before they were despatched to the customers instead of relying on the customers to report any faults and repair them themselves. As someone that owned a manufacturing business for 15 years I'm shocked that there isn't any Quality Assurance. It...

I totally agree. I think it is outrageous that we pay extra because the package contains hazardous material, but the shippers seem to treat it like any other package, and not take the extra care a potentially hazardous package deserves. It sound to me like the shippers are extorting extra money...

Awww man! These reports of bikes getting damaged in transit has me really concerned. I live in UK, so my bike will be (mis)handled by more delivery monkeys and the risk of it arriving damaged is greater. I'm expecting to be paying $490 - $575 for shipping and I won't be happy if my bike arrives...

The city that I live in is very hilly. The steepest road I use rises about 300 foot in just over half a mile. The bike will mainly be used for my commute to work. I live on a hill and I work at the bottom of it roughly a mile away, so I'll only be using the motor for my journey up the hill back...

I did think about adding one to my order, but I thought I'd wait to see if I need to get one first. This my first e-bike, so its difficult for me to judge at the moment whether or not I'll need one. I don't mind if it costs me a bit extra. Thanks for your suggestion, as an e-bike noob they are...

I went for the black, I liked the satin finish. I live in the UK where it rains quite a lot, so I think my first mod will be to add mud guards. I also will probably get an extra battery, but buy it from a UK supplier since the shipping costs from USA will be pretty high. I live on a steep hill...

Yay! our own forum! I'm also looking forward to hearing the feedback from the first batch of Rad Rover owners. I'm in the second batch, plus I live in the UK, so I'll be expecting mine to arrive a few weeks later. I can't wait!

Yes, there is a real possibility that this is junk or vapourware, but the probability is negligible. They give pretty detailed specifications on their product, so you can decide whether it's junk or not. They have photos and videos of the actual products and not computer generated images, so...
