    Throttle and pedal assist question

    I also bought & added this same thumb throttle on my new RadRover & it works just like a charm. I know exactly how you feel waiting for your e-bike 😁. I waited a little over 5 weeks for mine which finally arrived last Sunday and I’m enjoying every minute riding it. This is also my first e-bike...

    Received my RadRover 5 today and took it out for a test ride after assembly. The rear brake is making squeaking sound when applying the brakes, is this normal for a new bike? Front brakes are OK.

    Anyone have experience with 1Up Super Duty hitch rack?

    I’m contemplating purchasing the 1Up Super Duty hitch rack for my 2020 RadRover 5 but a bit apprehensive that it might not work due to the back fender. I think the front fender will clear the bar lock but not the back. Does anyone with a RadRover with the OEM fenders use this hitch rack?

    Anyone have experienced with Rola Convoy Modular Bike Carrier?

    I do have a 2" hitch and probably will not have more than 2 e-bikes when travelling. I like the idea of the Rola modular where I can add on later. I'm trying to convince my wife to also start riding and the reason I'm looking for something that I can still use if & when she does say yes.
