The Radrunner 3 Plus looks like it would work for you. It's what I would have bought when I bought my Rad Wagon 4 if it would have been available. It's a step through, can carry cargo and it's wheelbase is short so it will load on a regular size car rack.

John Rose is right. Make sure your battery is up to house temperature before charging it. Also for safety while charging a battery, just make sure you are present, you don't charge it overnight and you use Rad's charger. Rad's batteries are pretty safe as they use quality cells, have a decent Battery Management System (BMS) and they are CE certified (European Union standards). I think they are working on getting CSA and UL listed too.
Your ebike battery will lose capacity in the cold. However, if your rides are relatively short it shouldn't be a problem as most of us ride less than 10 Km when we ride and that's not an issue with an ebike. When you stop somewhere take the battery inside with you so it has a chance to warm up a bit. It's what I do although I don't do it for the sake of the battery. I do it as they are ridiculously easy to steal if left on the bike.

ztglare, I don't have any advice but during the first season (2021) on my RW4 the chain came off the front sprocket two or three times. It only happened when I was in 7th gear. I have no idea why but it hasn't happened for the last two seasons although I suspect it is because the chain is soooo long and the derailleur may not be able to keep it tight enough all the time.
I'm going to keep an eye on this thread as someone with more knowledge may have a solution for you.

I bought the RW4 (It arrived in July 2021) and I like it a lot. It does everything well and doesn't have any serious flaws. I would like to have regenerative braking but I understand a direct drive motor weighs more. My bike weighs enough already.
If the Radrunner 3Plus had been available when I bought my RW I may have chosen it as it can handle carrying stuff while still being "normal" sized. Otherwise happy as a clam. 

Ah, OK. Thank you for checking.

Bump so Ryan can see this and possibly answer the question of what his brother does with his floorboards when loading his RW4 on the Hollywood Rack.

If you're trying to adjust the front suspension on your bike you need to "unlock" the one side and then adjust the + or - side. LEAVE the suspension unlocked as that side is designed to lock out the suspension when/if you don't need it. Your suspension won't work while locked out.

Banjopete, those tires look great. They appear to have lots of tread blocks of sufficient depth so one could also stud them if necessary. Of course they will affect range and speed but one doesn't use something like a RW4 for speed or usually range. Most ebike riders often don't even go 20 miles (30ish Kms) per day. Hopefully you will be fine.

Those carriers are a good idea, especially for one bike. I see they are only offered for 2 inch receivers. Our car has a class two 1 1/4 inch receiver and if one uses a 2 to a 1 1/4 inch conversion unit their weight capacity is reduced. The data shows it is generally reduced by 50%. 500 lbs reduced to 250 lbs is still plenty of capacity to carry a couple of bikes though.

We have a cargo carrier similar to the one mentioned but the sides of it interfere with the wheels of my RW4. It won't fit onto or into it effectively, especially if we want to load our two bikes. For me, it is too difficult to secure two bikes in such a way they won't hit each other or move around on a cargo carrier like we have. Thank you for the suggestion but I don't trust my tie down ability enough to risk it.

For winter riding another thing to check out is a company called Slipknot traction. They make bicycle chains for winter riding. Their web site is "www.slipnottraction.com"

Hi Mtolesen,
Whatever you do, don't sand your brake discs. Clean them with either Acetone, Isopropyl Alcohol or actual brake cleaner.

Remove your brake pads, place a piece of 120 grit or even 180 grit sandpaper on a flat surface.  Lightly sand the brake surface of the brake pads on the sandpaper. When finished, clean the pads with the same stuff you cleaned your brake discs with.

Reassemble your brakes, adjust them as per your owners manual or Youtube videos and then break in the freshly cleaned brake pads. Look on Youtube for how to do it. It's relatively simple. Once done, you should have good brakes.

I hope this helps. If not, take your bike to a bike shop. They will be happy to do it for you.

You've got a 400 mm seat post maxed out? I think you're right, you may need a 450 mm post to get proper leg extension. I note Rad's web site indicates the RW4 is suitable for riders with an inseam just over 36" but I'm not sure how they measure. Bike fit is such a personal thing.

Good luck and keep trying to find a good fit.

Naranja_CT5+ either lock company is a good choice. They have many choices and a large variety of security levels. I suggest choosing the highest security level one can when buying a lock. If I had access to an Abus folding lock I would have bought it. However I only had access to a Kryptonite chain lock when I bought mine. I use a chain lock simply because using an angle grinder on a chain is a bit harder than on a U lock. It's not much of a difference but every little bit helps.

FWIW the "Lockpicking Lawyer" uses a Kryptonite chain lock on his bike.

One could look into the LiteLok 1 or LiteLok 3 U locks. They are designed to be more angle grinder resistant than standard U locks. According to some tests I've seen, the LiteLok 3 is VERY hard to grind through. However they are expensive!

FWIW I just installed a 27.2 Suntour suspension seat post on my RW4. I used a 30.8 sleeve (the bike shop didn't have a 30.9 sleeve) for the 27.2 seat post and it's working fine. I've put about 30 or 40 kms on it and it is holding position. I'm not sure why Rad's web site says the Suntour seat post isn't for the RW4 as they simply need to have a few sleeves in stock.

It works excellently. Very enjoyable riding now.

I don't think setting the seat post at a comfortable height will be an issue for you.

I believe on the RW4 one could even be 7 feet tall and still get proper leg extension. I'm only six feet but I have a 34 inch inseam and I have the bottom sleeve set very shallow. With the standard seat post and the scale on the back of the post I had it set at about 6.5 whatever that is. None of the two telescoping devices were close to the minimum insertion depth.
