I suspect you would be lucky to get half of what you paid for it originally. Just my opinion.

Nice work.

So far, I have just over 90 miles on the Mini. No problems at all. Longest ride was 33 miles - used 3 bars on the battery. I estimate 50 miles per charge for me, mostly flat city streets and paved bike trails with some packed granite, PAS 3, almost all pedaling with very little throttling.

She is not that interested in bike riding. I could not talk her into getting a Rad. If I had, I would have bought her a Rad Mini step through. I will likely sell the two Bromptons which are very nice bikes.

So far, I have had three fair weather days for riding and have racked up 60 miles. A great way to see the city and explore all the bike trails. No problems so far. Occasional creaks and moans but they seem to go away. No loose spokes that I have found. Longest ride has been 27 miles on mostly...

Yes, I already bought and installed the Rad Mini rear (and front) racks. The tubes are larger diameter than the standard racks you linked. So as far as I can tell, the conventional pannier clips are too small to work. That leaves the saddle style bags or bags with velcro straps. I wonder what...

I recently picked up my first Rad Mini and just today installed the front and rear racks. The rear rack tubing is very thick and therefore standard pannier clips don't seem to fit. I know Rad offers one model of pannier. What bags are you using for the front and rear racks? Thanks.

I got my bike yesterday and assembled it. First assembly was clumsy - hint: turn the bike upside down. The only thing missing was the nut that attaches the headlight to the fork. Customer service was responsive. Had to bend out the derailed protector. Otherwise everything was fine. Went out for...

The kindest thing you could do at this point is make a decision and buy one! Put the others out of their misery.

You have competing goals: eBike that is resistant to harsh weather/road conditions and lightweight. A folder could solve the weather problem but you would have to put it inside your vehicle. Although outside your budget, you might look at electric Bromptons which should be available soon. The...

Any links with information on the Surly Ice Cream Truck modification?

I am a newly and am waiting for my first Mini to arrive. But it surprises me that the stock tires are so much heavier given that some have complained that they are relatively flimsy and flat prone.

8 lbs! That is a lot of weight. Are those Kenda tires not identical to the standard Rad tires? The Rad fork must weigh a lot!

Good point on getting the bike first. Cart before the horse. The cost of some of these accessories is de minimus - not like buying titanium replacement parts for my Brompton. So I don't mind indulging in a little anticipatory shopping.

I ordered the Cloud 9 seat recommended elsewhere and it is enormous, something like 12 x 11 inches. Seems ridiculous on paper, but I am looking for ridiculous comfort. Just hope it is not too long... I am considering using just the front rack most of the time (like on a Brompton) and then using...

I have Velosurance on two Bromptons, soon a Rad Mini. No claims filed yet so I can't really judge them personally but they got good reviews when I originally researched bike insurance. Ironically, my Bromptons cost more than my eBike.

I ordered the throttle attachment. Thanks!

I just bought a Rad Mini today. First eBike, total beginner. Eager to receive it. I have been reading about accessories and modifications. Not a ton of information out there and some of it seems dated. I wonder if others could recommend accessories relevant to the Mini along with links? I...

I am already wondering about mods and accessories. With the Brompton a wide array of options are available. Less so with the Mini. I am especially wondering about tires. I am not using it as a military weapon - I just want something that won't go flat!

Thanks all for the advice. I ordered just one mini today. Could not get my wife to bite on this one. The e-Brompton is available but the price is $4000 and the range is a bit limited. I like the idea of bigger tires (than the Brompton) for riding trails with mulch or gravel. Difficult and...
