    Hi fellas, I recently bit the bullet and bought a 2016 model on a closeout sale. I'm waiting for the bike to get to the bike shop and have it ready, maybe few days after Thanksgiving. Anyone know if the mini usb port on the left handlebar can be used to charge an iphone 6s? Anyone know...

    New tires and rotating tires on Rad Rover

    Hi Guys - So I was wondering if any of you have changed the tires on the radrover to something else - if so which one did you pick ? I feel the tires are fine but riding on concrete pathways in my university they make a really loud buzzing noise - it's fine on roads and no sound on gravel...

    Tubeless tires (26"x2.3")

    I got 4 flats in 2 months on a new bike, the last with one week old Mr. Tuffy liners.

Need something with cushion...

    I was doing some research for replacement tires and found that Maxxis makes the Gypsy model in 2.1 width and rated for high speed e-bikes, which would make it a suitable replacement for my Big Bens when the time comes. It's nominally less expensive. Does anyone have any experience with this...

    What would cause a tire to fail on the sidewall?

    I recently had the rear tire on my new Magnum Ui5 fail catastrophically with a bang. Fortunately, I was going slow at the time, but once I stopped, I found that the tire (not just the tube) had a 2-3 inch long tear in it. I was riding on smooth pavement at the time, and had just pumped the tire...
