    Is it not true that you can do that tweak on the 2020 plus models but it doesn’t actually work internally.

    Radrover Controller & Display Upgrade Kit

    The delay is about half a second. Not noticeable unless trying to power out of a slow 90 degree turn. Probably not happening on geared bikes.

    Radrover Controller & Display Upgrade Kit

    What I don’t like about the upgrade controller is the lag time for power with sudden full throttle applied. Also how far the throttle has to turned to get anything is terrible. Adding those two together and you have to plan ahead when wanting to power out of a 90 degree turn.

    Radrover Controller & Display Upgrade Kit

    The Radcity tail light fits it. Compare pins first because I think you didn’t buy from Bolton, should be the same but who knows.

    Changing to a different Rad bike…good move?

    Another thing going from fat to Radcity is you have to keep Radcity tires at 55 to 65 psi or more stress is put on the wheel and spokes. Also more prone to a flat with low psi.

    Changing to a different Rad bike…good move?

    Facebook Marketplace seems to be the most popular for non tool, non farm type stuff. The DD motor is nice and quiet plus you can always put a Bolton upgrade on it like I did. With the upgrade, once a hill causes you less than about 12 mph for more than 50ft it’s best to walk it up to prevent...

    Changing to a different Rad bike…good move?

    I’ve owned a lot of non electric bikes, one was an expensive Gary Fisher 29er mtn bike that was squirrely. Took me about 6 trail rides to feel safe on it and I’m 6’5. When I first rode the city I liked the boost but after hanging a few 90 degree turns on roads at 18-19 mph I was amazed. After a...

    Radrover Controller & Display Upgrade Kit

    Glad you made progress. I prefer to know the power level given and don’t want to change gears for higher cadence or press harder on the pedals for power. Younger people might like all that but it’s not what I bought an ebike for. I primarily ride at 18-23 and hang curves at 18 for fun. Can’t...

    Article : America's E-Bike Revolution Is in Trouble

    There is a jealousy component when someone gets passed by an ebike and the pocket book won’t entertain one.

    How is your battery health?

    My initial Radcity battery is 3.5 yrs old, has about 6000 miles on it. Probably half that was ridden in a way that you would ride if someone said, here, try to kill this battery. It has only been charging to 53.4 for awhile and drops to 52 within a mile on PAS 2. Now the new problem is at 45v...

    When transporting ebike on platform-type car rack, do you remove the battery?

    We take them off for trips outside the area. We have flame containment bags. They will hold two batteries but we only put one in each plus our spare battery is in the third one. I also use blue tape to cover the seat post hole, battery holder pins, the rear brake cable holder where it points...

    Radrover Controller & Display Upgrade Kit

    Do you have a sensor with the red LED on the bottom? Make sure it flashes evenly when pedaling. And solid on when pedaling backwards. You can set PAS to zero for this test.

    Radrover Controller & Display Upgrade Kit

    About 1/4 turn. What year is your bike? Rad increased the PAS magnets up to 12 I think for 2019 models because mine has 12. The firmware reacts better with more magnets assuming the settings are right.
