    Tubeless Rims for RadRover

    I started researching the same thing and wasn't able to find exactly what I wanted either. To answer your question, yes, some wheel builders can lace a 36 wheel hub to a 32 wheel rim. I found some wheel lacing patterns for that scenario online but I don't know in the real world if it's done...

    Surly ebike

    Agreed that more steel frame options entering the market is a good thing. Surly would be my first choice for an electric adventure touring bike.

    Voltbike Yukon vs Radrover

    I can’t speak to the Yukon but the Radrover is a great bike especially the 2019 models with upgraded gearing and hard wired tail lights. You can set the controller up to go just under 25mph and using 11-32 gearing there’s no spinning out at high speeds. I also like the built in mounts for the...

    Surly Knard 3.8 on Radrover

    Has anyone tried the Surly Knard 3.8 tire on their Radrover? I ride my radrover to the store and on the bike path so there's a good amount of asphalt riding but I also want to do some long dirt backroad touring and gravel grinder type routes. The Maxis Mammoth also looks to be a good choice as...

    The JA Thumb throttle attachment

    Does anyone know if you can cut the remaining twist throttle off when using this thumb throttle? I'm changing handle bars and am about an inch too short for the full twist throttle.

    DIY or Bike Shop?

    The YouTube videos make the whole process painless. After you put it together you’ll be glad you didn’t pay $200 for someone else to do it because it was so easy. And you can start getting to know your bike. After that success, I watched videos on how to adjust the derailleur and then decided...

    1Up Super Duty Single

    I read somewhere that they could incorporate a ramp if you ordered it with the rack. I just take the battery off when it’s going on the rack and do one tire at a time. So far so good

    1Up Super Duty Single

    After looking at all the heavy e-bike hitch rack choices I ended up going with a 1Up 2″ Super Duty Single for bikes up to 75lbs. It seems really well built and comes with a lifetime warranty. It also has one of the lowest profiles out there which is important because I have two large dogs that...

    Setback Seatpost for Brooks Saddle

    Brooks saddles don't have as much room on the rails to adjust as the stock saddle on the Radrover so I bought a setback seatpost from Vello Orange on Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/Velo-Orange-Grand-Setback-Seatpost/dp/B014994Y3Q (they were out of stock on the Vello Orange site). Now the seat...

    Radrover Spare Tube and CO2 or Pump

    How do Radrover riders handle flats? Do you carry a spare tube and a hand pump or CO2 cartridge device? I've been leery of having a flat on long rides because of the bad rap the Juggernaut tires get for being thin and puncture prone. I'm thinking about ordering the Origin8 Supercells based...

    Natchez Trace is a beautiful drive where large commercial vehicles are not allowed. A lot of people bike the Park portion but an angry driver intentionally ran over a driver a year or so ago - he went to jail. I'm going to start looking for long gravel roads and single tracks to explore...

    Just joined this forum. Received my Radrover last Friday and I'm enjoying the hell out of it. It was a beautiful fall day yesterday so I took a 30 mile ride on the Music City Bikeway to the Dam and back into town to eat at Mitchell Deli. There is a ridiculously steep hill with several built...

    Radrover Unexpected Bonus

    I knew my brand new Radrover would be fun to ride and that the electric pedal assist would help on hills and in traffic but the unexpected benefit is being seen by drivers. The look of the fat tire bike is so unusual people were checking it out and waving. Helps with visibility on urban streets.
