Thank you! Yes, I have these on my mountain bike. Haven't really thought about putting them on the RadWagon, as I've been thinking of that bike more as a utility truck, LOL. But that's definitely worth a thought.

Acetone would have been my first go-to remedy. So, thanks! :-)

I rode through a patch of freshly poured asphalt but thought it was just wet with runoff water at the time, so didn't pay much attention to it. Now, two weeks later, I discovered that the underside of the frame is splattered with black pieces of asphalt. Any advice on removing this, or should I...

Not clunky at all. Yes, it is heavy, and pushing it around feels like pushing around my old Vespa scooter, which weighs about three times as much as the Radwagon. But, once you ride it, and especially once you engage the pedal assist, the Radwagon gets REALLY zippy. Sometimes, when I feel like...

Dude, you should come to Tucson sometime. ;) The only places with worse roads than Tucson are a little bit south of here, in Mexico. The combination of brutal summer sun and freezing temps in the winter make short work of any asphalt. I've only put a little over 100 miles on the Wagon 4, but...

I can't speak to the older version of the Radwagon, since we just got ours, and that's the new and improved model, the Radwagon 4. Biggest differences are the smaller wheel size on the 4, along with a geared hub drive vs. the 3's direct drive. Based on what I read, I wouldn't want a direct...

I've had a Radwagon for about two weeks, and so far, I love this thing. This is my first ebike, and it accelerates much quicker and stronger than I expected. I have not even used pedal assist levels 4 and 5, as I find 2 and 3 more than sufficient for flat and slight uphill riding. In those two...

Fatter than what the Radwagon comes with? Sorry, but why? I've only had my Radwagon for a couple of weeks, and I love it, but I find the stock wheels to be needlessly oversized. The rolling resistance when riding unassisted is crazy high.

Indianajo, I like the way you think. 👍 Only thing is, no bales of hay here; no weeds by the roadside, either. All we have here is cactus. 😁 I like the system with the different knots you're suggesting, and it reminded me that I have been meaning to learn knots better. I can barely tie a bowline...

Thank you for the tip. Rad actually does offer panniers for the Wagon, but here in Arizona, panniers are next to useless, since they're built to keep the contents dry, something we don't worry about at all. 😁 (We don't need fenders, either; last year, it rained for literally 3 or 4 days, total.)...

Yes, I have! I was about to order a front basket when I ordered the bike yesterday, but then I hesitated once I realized they offer both a dedicated basket and a rack to which one can mount a basket. The rack seems to make more sense to me intuitively, as I think it's more flexible. I could...

Great points about the range. I actually do anticipate our range to be on the higher end of the spectrum, because I'm planning to pedal as much as possible, and where we ride (Tucson), there are no hills anywhere. Very, very gradual inclines, but no steep climbs whatsoever. When my little guy...

Thank you! Unfortunately, the manufacturer states on their website that these bags do not fit the redesigned Radwagon 4. Oh well, I'm going to call the company and ask for recommendations. Worst case, I'll jerry-rig something up.

I'm curious as to how involved such a conversion would be. I absolutely love the concept, and if I wasn't a daddy with a full schedule, I might be all over that. But with this e-bike purchase, I'm not looking to get into another hobby. I already own and maintain a bunch of muscle-powered bikes...

Now you got me thinking. Did I perhaps confuse the Tern with the Blix Packa? The Blix has a non-geared direct drive hub motor. Is that maybe the one that can't be pedaled without drag?

Those photos are adorable! what about serious groceries, though? I'm talking two full Trader Joe's paper bags. On my current, non-electric, non-cargo bike, I can carry two of those without problems in my soft baskets that attach to the rack, while my little guy rides in front of me. From a cargo...

Thank you for sharing your experience! I read a review today that claimed that if the battery goes out on a Tern, you have to call a tow truck. Apparently, that is not factual.

Or, you could just fix the flat using a patch kit, no?

Hi all! Having been on bikes continuously for 45 years, I'm new to the e-bike world. Never thought I'd want/needed one, but with the summer approaching here in Southern Arizona, I have set my eyes on a cargo e-bike, in hopes of continuing to bike-commute with my 3-year old son to his day care in...
