Hello,
I have begun researching electric bikes with the goal of purchasing a bike this spring for fun and exercise. My commute involves a long mountain climb and crossing a busy highway so I will not be commuting with it. Biking the countryside and trips to the store are what I am looking for.
The RadCity Step-Thru is on my short list of potential bikes. I'd like to hear from other forum members on their experience with what the real weight limit is. I am right at the top limit of the published weight limit for the bike without carrying anything. Understandably RadPower won't commit to anything beyond their published limit. In perusing the forum I have noticed comments from people indicating they have carried in excess of the published limit.
Any comments would be appreciated.
