    Velotric

    Does that mean the pedal assist level 1 is too fast for 5 mph? I heard from one reviewer it cut out around 5 mph. And, I guess possibly it's not adjustable. I really would like an ebike that assists at very low speeds........ Thanks!!

    Lectric XP PAS 1 through 3 no difference

    Wondering how this turned out. I have a new Lectric xp step thru and PAS 1 is just too much, too fast. I also have an FLX mid drive ebike and a new Radmini step thru who both get it right - smooth slow gentle pas level 1, for slow cycling. Lectric failed at it which is too bad. You can't say you...

    Pedaling with no power

    Dallant I'm not sure there are many sub $1600 55 lb ebikes. Any nice under 60lb mid drive is over $2k. I agree, when I got my first radrover ?2015 I could not believe anyone would put of with that beast, and it was "only" 63 lbs. It is amazing to me too how there are so few complaints on this...

    any folder or e scooter for really steep hills?

    What Bosch do you have? I have a recent Bafang mid drive with "160 NM Torque" (FLX) which is WAY beyond the Euro drives' torque. Bosch and the other eurodrives are usually 250 watt hugely expensive mid drives with no torque. Even the Radmini hub drive would have more torque than I believe any...

    The Roselandia - "Compact E-Bike that rides Big" - pedal forward design

    Yes, a Rans Fusion, but smaller and with mid drive - smart! When will it be available?

    Anyone have the Stunner-x 24"? How is it for 5 4" to 5'8"?

    Slag LOL! Steep hills - check. How about 1) full throttle available at all PAS levels and 2) PAS 1 slow enough for slow in-town maneuvering?

    Anyone have the Stunner-x 24"? How is it for 5 4" to 5'8"?

    So far so good… Anyone using it on steep long hills like we have here in NJ? Not only need torque, but also need the ability to go slow with motor in PAS 1. A radrover I had was too fast in PAS 1 and unpleasant at slow speed.....

    Anyone have the Stunner-x 24"? How is it for 5 4" to 5'8"?

    Especially for those that don't like a high seat (32" max) and prefer to almost or completely touch feet to ground when seated... thanks!

    RPB RADMINI STEP-THRU - CYCLE OR SCOOT

    Banzai Much appreciated! Can’t wait to try this. Brilliant detail and photos! And will buy a torque wrench. On another note, we need another bike and was thinking about the radrunner one fixie. My goal is to create a foot flat experience and I’m wondering if you or anybody else knows if the...

    Rad Mini StepThru, Sizeing re Handlebar Height

    Thanks Banzai for your great review of the radmini st. I actually am looking to place the seat back towards the rear for a couple of inches, increasing the ability for a "foot flat" position, yet with adequate leg extension for my family (5'4 - 5'8). A key piece is turning the stem of the...

    New Step Through owner and member

    Just an update on FLX customer service - they are totally there and responsive, in my experience. Best to use email. The bike itself - very nice; only complaint is the frame is a bit big for me, I'm 5'8". Looking for a second bike with lower step over - basically a crank forward mountain bike...

    RPB RADMINI STEP-THRU - CYCLE OR SCOOT

    I do have one reason to consider other bikes: I owned a Rad Rover (it was stolen recently) and my major beef with the bike was its weight - 61 lbs. Even with the battery off, putting it on a bike rack was misery. I am also looking at the rad mini and it weighs 68 lbs!!!. That will be a beast to...

    New Step Through owner and member

    I have the same Step Through, same color - just got it last month. Yes a few minor glitches but anyone contemplating this company - customer service has been great. My feeling is - if you are buying an ebike sight unseen, be prepared for a punch list of problems, hopefully small, that the...

    FLX Trail Questions for Current Owners!

    Interesting-let’s see-the blade is almost twice the price, with 160 nm of torque versus the trail 120 nm of torque. But It apparently weighs approximately 13 pounds more-I guess that’s negligible amount if riding but that’s a lot more tonnage to hoist onto a bike rack..... I also mainly ride...

    FLX Trail Questions for Current Owners!

    Great reviews, thanks. I have some steep hills both road and trail. Does the Trail ever feel underpowered on the steeps? I’m trying to decide between flx Trail vs Blade. Trail is significantly lighter (and less$) so hoping it is powerful enough. I’m 150 lbs.....

    The FLX Blade - Solid FUN!

    Thanks for your review. I may just order one - but hard tail concerns me; do you have a seat post suspension? Considering thudbuster or bodyfloat. Other concern is the weight - I believe it is 58lbs with battery - a monster to lift onto bike rack! Also it would be great if you posted all the...

    Pedal assist level one has maxium speed?

    I am really enjoying the Radrover. I emailed Radpower due to the fact that it seemed Pedal Assist level 1 was only working intermittently. They said it cuts out at 6mph. Mine in fact does cut out at that speed (actually around 5.7). The other levels have no cut off. It's too bad, since...
