https://electricbikereview.com/rad-power-bikes/radrover/ The 2016/2017 RadRover from Rad Power Bikes strikes an excellent balance delivering high power with mid-level components for a reasonable price, you get throttle and pedal assist with an on/off on the throttle! solid one year warranty for the original owner, flat rate $175 shipping in the US. Even though the battery and controller box are bolted on vs. integrated into the frame, they use extra bolts for strength and kept them mostly out of the way, both are mounted low for improved stability. Nice extras including an integrated LED headlight, stand alone rear light, USB charging outlet on the battery, handle at the back of the seat, quick release front wheel, bash guard on the chainring and derailleur... optional fenders and rack. Only available in one frame size but comes in black or white color choices, the 180 mm disc brakes work well enough but hydraulic would be nice, the grips spin a bit if you squeeze hard, excellent kickstand placement, clean wire integration.

my commute is only 2 miles, I am going to get one of these for spring/summer

Shame you cant buy these here in UK

can this be bought in the philippines?

Thanks for the great info. I just ordered a Rad Rover and told them your videos were very helpful.

wicked bike , thanks

I have a RadRover and put lil over 350 miles on it so far. I do street riding, dirt trails, rock trails. Only problem I have ever had is chain coming off going down hill while in a low gear. Besides that not one problem. I would like to see grip lock outs as well.

Im thinking of getting this for my commuting to school instead of car

Thanks to this bike I now expect more bang for my buck out of everything I buy! Had a couple warranty issues that were immediately resolved by Cory. I have both the rover and mini, both great bikes.

Great video. I bought a Framed Alasken fat bike ,non electric and I love it

cables under yhe bottom bracket are vulnerable.

Put on a gates belt drive and and Rohloff hub and you will have no problem with the the stand in your gears. A real beach cruiser.

do you know if the bike could/is a coaster brake? i dont know if i trust the brakes, specifically myself with handbrakes.

Would a front hub motor help with riding in soft sand or other soft terrain? Keep up the great work.

how many miles can it go in one run???

I have put about 500 miles with mine and still going strong without any problems so far. I'm 5'11 and weight 270 lbs and this bike gets me through all the steep hills around my neighborhood. If you weight more than 200lbs don't waist time with any 36v 350w bike. I also have easy motion Evo 29er with 36v 500w motor which cost twice the RadRover but does not come close to RadRover. I also recommend RadMini which I also have that has same motor but feels even more powerful due to its 20 × 4 tire size.

You need to put that Bike on a Diet 😉

I noticed that you also had a Rad Mini on that trip. Would love to see another review of that bike. Thanks for all the great videos!

wow really good video bro keep it up

I bought the black model last month. I've only put about 60 miles on it so far. Longest ride is 15 miles. I plan on going for longer rides in the future. I'd love to be somewhere warm with it. So far I've had no problems and it seems like a bargain compared to other bikes of the same style. Great review!
