    QR skewer & disk brakes claimed as a contributing factor in fatal accident involving a RadRunner

    They should also say you need to have a mental age of 16 as well.

    Charging while camping?

    Wouldn't it take a crazy long period of sunshine to recharge a dead battery with a solar array like that?

    Known Issues & Problems with Rad Power Products + Help, Solutions & Fixes

    I'm not really familiar with the mini but Canadian versions of RP bikes have a damper that cuts out at about 22mph, however you're stateside so it's odd. Might be worth going through the process in the video just to make sure you're not getting capped.

    Rad Power Bikes In trouble?

    One of my favourite quotes which I've remembered for almost half a century: "Speech is civilization itself. The word, even the most contradictory word, preserves contact - it is silence which isolates.“

    Question about balancing the battery.

    Well actually if you smoked two packs a day you would have many health issues and wouldn't be running like new. My battery may have black lung under the cover but performance-wise it's like the day I got it. If it's luck I'll take it but I have a feeling there's more to it than that.

    Question about balancing the battery.

    For the past few years I have literally broken every single suggestion in this thread on pretty much a regular basis. I didn't balance the battery to start with, constantly forgetting and leaving it charging in for days, keeping it fully charged 100.00% of the time, leaving it fully charged...

    Rad Sale

    Been wondering about that too. If it wasn't barely a year old a new model would definitely be a leading candidate. Cars bump every year but they've been in a much longer release pattern. Overstock? Better cost/manufacturing efficiencies and attempting more market saturation? Bleak economic...

    Radmini 3rd party rear rack and fenders

    Is the JBL on the handlebar to lure some of those ducks on the edge of the shore into your rear basket? Or do you live in Quebec where earbuds are illegal?

    How interesting, I had no idea you ordered one. What a beast. That demo up the steep grade speaks for itself. Too bad about the seat height being physically set, I remember hearing about that in the video. I just googled and read about a guy 5'8" who couldn't flat foot it. Strange engineering...

    Yeah that spare parts collection is creating some good opportunities for you. The flat I had was a direct hit from what looks like a two inch roofing nail. Surprised it didn’t come through the rim as well. I had a Burley trailer for maybe two years or so before I had to retire it from service...

    Most of the black bears I saw up around Comox were on trips to the dump and they were pretty bold and unafraid of people. Tannus wouldn't have saved my bacon today (photo). I almost fell over at the price of their breakfast yesterday, and I compared to another place in town and saw it was...

    Too funny, cursed myself. Just flatted but on the upside was only about 100m from my place. Murphy's Law, should have touched wood.

    A friend of mine has the curse and flats like nobody. Gear head too, knows all the tricks to avoid it happening but to no avail. I probably average about a flat every couple seasons and it's usually just chaos theory. Just sucks overtime when you are in the middle of nowhere without a tube and...
