Hello! I got these 3 items replaced under warranty, and I figured someone might want them.

The UI display (2nd screen) works perfectly, except the plastic clip that holds it on to the handlebar broke off. I am sure a quick trip to the hardware store and $1 would fix this. Otherwise in perfect condition.

The Primary LCD screen is in perfect condition, but reset my mileage (once) and Rad replaced it under warranty. Honestly not even sure it was the UI's fault as I was accessing the "hidden menu" when it restarted.

A rear replacement brake setup - NUTT brand rear hydraulic brake with lever, cable, caliper assembly. The brakes work, but lost a lot of braking power. I tried bleeding them (first time ever bleeding brakes) and couldn't improve it. I bet if you knew how to bleed brakes well, this would come back to life - but I don't know.

Anyways, I would happily sell all of this for $20 (combined) + shipping. If anyone happens to be in Arcata, CA area we can meet up locally.

I will still be actively riding my bike over Winter, but temperatures in the shed where I keep the bike get to around freezing (~30-35 degrees) overnight. Is it ok to keep the battery on the bike in these temperatures, or will this degrade the life of the battery?

Interesting to ride at night with no headlights.  I can't do that around here, no brightly lit city/suburban streets.

No headlight? Sure I had headlight on 😄

Uh, huh.. :)

I "premium" headlight that I got with my RR2 sucks balls for being a "premium" product.  I just added a set of 1200lm lights.  There's mornings I might be out at 4am and coming home well after sunset.  While I could be seen easily enough, the "premium" headlight isn't enough to ride safely.  I think I'll be good now.



The RR light is pointed down so it picks up what's right in front of me, the add on lights are pointed more up, but not high enough to blind drivers.  The orange lights are my turnsignals in "hazard" mode.  I just happened to catch an image while they were on while flashing. 

I just got them on today, but haven't been out yet, it's been raining here since yesterday.

Yeah. I got 3000lm headlight in this bike. For street use its aimed little low not to blind other road users. Can be adjusted on the go though.
When doing 40mph good light is a must.

Are there upgraded lights like this that can plug into the Rad Power system or are these battery operated?
