Thanks for the tip!  Did you lose the connectivity to the brake light and battery?

After a week of riding our RW up and down the hills of SLC, I knew that the mechanical discs weren't going to cut it. I purchased a set of Area 13 fully hydraulic brakes, and the difference is night and day. Easier lever pull, better modulation, and much improved stopping power. Plus, the anodized calipers look pretty sweet.

I had mine installed by VeloFix, since you have to route the rear brake cable through the frame, which requires bleeding.

Unfortunately, it looks like they raised their prices by $50 since the time I bought them two weeks ago. Even at $199 I think they're a great deal.

I?m looking to upgrade my brakes on my rad wagon 4. After 450+ miles I am convinced the stock brakes are a little unsafe and since I?ve always got my son on the back I think it?s time to upgrade.  Any recommendations? I don?t want to spend a fortune but given that it?s to help keep my kid safe I?m happy to make an investment. Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the tip!

Hello forum!  New here and so far in love with my wagon.  Bought it mainly so I can cruise around Austin's trails / paths with my 16mo kiddo.  Well, we got our first flat, rear wheel.  Bummer of a walk home after my wife rescued the kid.  I submitted a request for mobile service through RAD since Austin is one of their cities, but I'm curious...are there better / more suitable tires for the RW4 than the stock ones it comes with?  I am not doing any actual trail riding, but many of the city's trails are gravel/crushed granite and I'm wondering what my options are.
