    question about the motors on the radrover

    I have a 2016. RadRover claims it's a 750W motor, but I'm pretty sure it's a 500W motor with 750W peak. I routinely get 745-750W but have never gotten 751W.

    Radrover pas levels

    I believe the Pedal assists will give you power until you reach these mph: PAS 1 - 12 PAS 2 - 14 PAS 3 - 16 PAS 4 - 18 PAS 5 - 20 ...Or something like this. I don't have the manual in front of me but I do know it is listed in there. If you are getting no assistance beyond 6mph on PAS 1, that...

    Rear Rack installation for RadRover

    Just bought it a couple weeks ago so I am assuming 2016. And yes, there are mounting holes above the brake caliper on each side on my bike... but the rack still doesn't appear to fit. I can't make out anything from your avatar because the picture is so small and not zoomed in on the part that I...

    Rear Rack installation for RadRover

    I bought the Axiom Fatliner Rack for the 2016 version of this bike which supposedly works... but I can't for the life of me figure out how to mount it. https://www.amazon.com/Axiom-Fatliner-FatBike-Rear-Rack/dp/B00S2QYNI4?ie=UTF8&*Version*=1&*entries*=0 Seems like whenever I try, the screws on...

    Let's talk Lights..

    The voltage shouldn't make it that difficult. I wired strobe lights into my drone and just got a small little voltage regulator that took a high amount of voltage in and output a much smaller voltage out to the light. I assume the same thing would apply here.

    Would like to go faster!

    is going from a 48V to a 52V battery really going to change much? seems like it would maybe squeeze out an extra couple miles of range or maybe 1-2mph of top speed... am i missing something?

    "Early June" Radrover shipments

    So I've gotten to put about 40 miles on my bike so far... with about 35 of that being on roads (and 2 miles of that in a vicious thunderstorm) and 5 miles of it being on some pretty muddy trails and through quite a few puddles. Here are my impressions: - The way Pedal Assist works kind of...

    "Early June" Radrover shipments

    even when i take the plate out completely the screws dont fit the hole correctly. im just going to use a tap to thread it myself. the screws are 6mm (1mm pitch) if anyone encounters this in the future

    "Early June" Radrover shipments

    unboxed mine and am putting it together now. has anyone had any problem tightening the handlebar? my top screws go in, but the bottom ones seem like they aren't threaded or something because they don't tighten down nearly as far as the top ones.

    "Early June" Radrover shipments

    Could someone post a link to the amazon page for the Mr Tuffys people speak of that fit this bike specifically?

    "Early June" Radrover shipments

    Yep, mine is coming to Alabama. I'm not very optimistic given how people have talked about how the box has arrived. I don't really understand what is so difficult about shipping something, even cross country, by ground. I realize you can't control how rough the people who handle the package are...

    Rear Rack installation for RadRover

    So what other bags do people use with their RadRover rear racks? I bought this Axiom rack: http://www.amazon.com/Axiom-Fatliner-FatBike-Rear-Rack/dp/B00S2QYNI4?ie=UTF8&psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00 but am unsure what the best bag(s) to get to attach to it.

    52v battery?

    Out of curiosity... what is the advantage of 52V over 48V? Seems like such a small increase... is $450+ really worth (what I would imagine is) a tiny increase in range?

    Accessorizing the RadRover

    I come from the world of road cycling but several months ago began to consider a mountain bike so I could ride some trails (nothing too crazy, just easy recreational stuff). At the same time, I have always wanted to get a bike that I could use as a commuter... and 7 miles each way on a road bike...
