RadCity / RAD City LED displays
August 06, 2023, 02:29:47 PM
Hello Rad City Users:  This topic may have been addressed before.  I tried to research as I am new to site, but it says previous discussions were too old.  So my question/concern is related to the brightness level on the LED displays on the Rad City.  There are two displays.  I live,and have lived, in very sunny climates.  My vision is fine, but I have a lot of difficulty reading the displays on bright sunny days which are the norm where I live.  I have adjusted the brightness levels to max, peeled off the celephane covers, adjusted the angle of the display to me when riding; all to no avail.  For pedal assist levels, I basically have to guess what level I am in by the feel of the resistance. I know other electric bike manufacturers have addressed this issue, and I am also aware that Rad is aware of the problem as I have spoken to one of their reps about it.  Part of their response is that the design for a lot of their bikes took place in Washington State where the no. of bright sunny days is at a premium.  I have no problem reading the displays on cloudy days.  Is anyone aware of any upgrades for this model either hybrid or offerred by RAD?  Thanks.
