With a dog that size, I think you're going about it completely backwards.
This is what you should get:

The dog would probably enjoy it more too, once in a while. ;)

Quote from: Muskie1 on September 23, 2022, 10:46:57 AMThe problem with a trailer is any axle mount. The warranty is voided.
I don't see why they don't make more of them with hitches to the centre of the rear rack. Then you could make tighter turns in both directions.

I've had the exact same problems except I bought two Rad Rover 6 bikes and both of them had the same error and do not produce power. It appears that RPB's is just going to rip us off and let this obvious flaw in manufacturing be the consumers problem.

Thought I'd reach out to you to see if you learned anything. Any resolution?

Used e-bike without the charger?

How confident are you that it was not stolen? A charger is the one part a bike thief would not have gotten.

There are two RadRover 6 plus listed as stolen at https://project529.com/garage

Hi, I just bought a used RadRover 6 plus and the battery was dead. I ordered the proper charger from Rad. I got a really good deal and hoping the battery will take a charge. Looking for feedback.  Thanks

Quote from: Karma on September 16, 2022, 12:34:34 PMHi!  My RadRunner 2 arrives early next week.  I've spent too much time reading one conflicting review after another on the web about what trailer works best for the Rad bikes.  Any of you have experience with this?  I've got a 55lb Belgian malinois that i need to tow around....sure she could outrun the Rad bikes with ease LOL, but i'd prefer to contain that fur rocket into a trailer and zip her around town with me.
Any suggestions on which trailers work best with the bike brand?

There is a bike trailer with name as  Happy Pet Bike Trailer for medium dog and Hercules bike trailer for Large dog up to 50 kg.

I use this one on my 2020 Rover 5 to raise them and move them closer to me.

Quote from: mrgold35 on April 21, 2024, 05:40:12 AMI added the Sunlite 0-60 degree adjustable handlebar stem for the 100% solution.  I added the adjustable stem to both Radrovers and can then adjust in seconds depending on the rider.

I had the opposite problem. When I first sat on my City+, it felt tall for me. So I adjusted the seat & handlebar but I am still not happy because the seat post was on the lowest settings.
Because of your post I realized that I can move the spacers to the top instead where it was on the bottom of the neck. You just helped lowered it by another inch. In the future I may order one of those adjustable neck to lose more height.

Quote from: hondo2160 on April 20, 2024, 03:34:06 PMThis is a bummer. A replacement unit is $80. I guess cable ties will do for now.
I love challenges, can you provide a picture of the damages? What part broke?

RadCity / Re: Better TIres for Radcity 5...
Last post by Bobk - April 21, 2024, 10:23:45 AM
I have done 5,500 km on my Rad City 5 Plus Step-through. I replaced the OEM tires with Continental Contact Urbans that are rated for E50. They are available at Sportscheck. What a difference. They are slick tires with very little rolling resistance. I can now cycle in one gear higher than with the OEM tires.

The cheap pedals that came with the bike gave out at 5,200 km. I replaced them with Raceface Chesters. They are also an improvement.
