    A comparison between the Limited and the 700

    Thanks again. I just ordered the right side half throttle from your link. I moved the thumb throttle to the right side of the bar this weekend. It’s a very tight squeeze so the twist should definitely help free up some space. I just prefer it on the right.

    A comparison between the Limited and the 700

    Thanks for the pic. I really like the bike but the throttle could be better. It’s a shame that Ride1Up is not going to address this. My low budget RadRunner throttle is variable regardless of PAS level, pedaling, etc. It’s really nice to give the bike slight throttle while pedaling up hills...

    A comparison between the Limited and the 700

    This is old news. It should work as a variable throttle regardless of PAS setting and whether or not you’re pedaling. Ride1Up obviously agrees or they wouldn’t be fixing this issue.

    A comparison between the Limited and the 700

    Thanks for the reply. Did the twist throttle have 3 pin Bafang connector? I’m buying a twist throttle and want to make sure I get the right connector.

    A comparison between the Limited and the 700

    I’m glad they are fixing this issue. Hopefully they can offer some type of fix for current owners. The throttle is annoying and feels very unrefined. I also have a RadRunner and the throttle is much better.

    Ride1Up 700 Series Chainring Replacement

    Hi. Want to replace my front chainring on my Ride1Up 700 series bike. Would like to go to a smaller ring to give me a bit lower gearing. The existing chainring has bolts that measure roughly 4.75” or 120mm center to center and there are 5 bolts. Any idea on where to get a 120 BCD, 5 bolt...

    700 Chainring adjustment

    Hi. Great info. I want to do the same on mine. Do you happen to know what the spacing is on the stock chainring? 104, 110, 130, etc.?

    Cheaper Shimano Derailleur on LMT’D.

    I replaced my Acera derailleur with the Deore RD-M591 this past weekend and it was a simple replacement. I did not have to modify anything and the Deore was a very simple bolt-on replacement. Easy to adjust and very crisp shifting. Thanks for the heads up on swapping to the Deore. Nice upgrade...

    Bike arrived with a broken derailleur hanger and bent fork, Ride1up says tough luck. Thoughts?

    Does anybody know how this issue was finally resolved or if it was resolved at all?

    Seat height question

    On my bikes, I’ve flipped the seat mount brackets on the Suntour SCX 180 degrees to allow for the seat to sit an inch or so lower. I found that with the seat mounted on top of the post and with the post fully dropped in the tube, the seat was still just a bit too high. Flipping the brackets...

    RadRunner PAS Level Speed Adjustment

    Is there a way to adjust the max speed associated with the PAS levels on a RadRunner 1? I recently got a new ebike and my wife has started to ride my RadRunner. She loves riding the bike however we typically ride very casually and she asked me if I would adjust the max speed for PAS level 1...

    Spring Seats vs. Suspension Posts - What's the Better Choice?

    I’ve been using both on my bikes for some time now and have decided to go back to using just the suspension seat post. I can’t seem to get a spring loaded seat to stay quiet. I keep getting annoying squeaks and keeping them quiet is just not worth the minimal improvement they provide. I found...

    "Significant Motor Resistance While Pedalling With Motor Off" Myth Busted: Physical Proof

    I have a RadRunner and a Ride1Up 700. Both lower end ebikes by forum standards. I’m impressed at how easy the 700 is to pedal unpowered. It’s really a pleasurable bike to ride with no assistance which I do most of the time. The Rad is a different story. Hardly ever ride the Rad without any...
