I’ve ridden both Lectric and Rad mini, though the XP was a year ago, before upgrades.
Both are terrific bikes, more affordable than most. I researched bikes for quite awhile during pandemic. It helped to have this task to engage in. I had no ebike experience, but found myself coming down to these two.
The Rad is sort of smoother. Slightly better components. The XP more raw, which feels best in some ways, but not in others. XP pedal assist kicks in stronger and is more help on steep hills. That stronger kicking in is almost TOO strong sometimes. I had to be careful not to almost lose control. I was inexperienced, though, and I’m sure that was part of it.
There are goid YouTube videos comparing the 2bikes.
When the RAD mini stepthru went on sale for August for $200 off, the price difference was much less, snd I ordered the RAD. Got it in a week, and am very pleased. It was a challenge for me doing some of the assembly, but I treated it as an adventure, got the required tools, took my time, and it added to the pleasure. Got RAD support on a couple of things, and they were very helpful. Their videos are good
I love my RAD, and I’m sure I’d have loved the XP too. Good things to say sbout both. If price us a real concern, you’ll be happy with XP. or order RAD mini now while it’s on sale ( I imagine in response to XP upgrades, or maybe because RAD has upgrades of their own coming
