Not sure about Tile, but Apple Airtags won't really work if the thief has an iPhone.  If your iPhone detects an unknown Airtag following you, it will alert you and you can disable it.  This is to prevent people from surreptitiously tracking other people for nefarious reasons.

Buy bike insurance!  Bicycle theft insurance is pretty cheap.  And register your bike on bike theft platforms like 529 Garage and others.

Cheers!

an Air tag could still work. I'm pretty sure your iphone won't immediately alert you to unknown airtags. it will tell you when you reach your 'home'. so if the thief disables it there, you know where they live.

Curious if anyone has considered replacing the rad mission electronics with the rad runner 1 electronics. Seems like there are a fair number of people out there replacing the rad runner electronics with bigger motors and controllers, it might mean there are spare sets of rad runner electronics. I'm not particularly interested in going faster as much as it would be nice if the rad mission had more torque. It would be cool to take off faster from a stop.

I guess it would be the whole system. so hub motor, controller, display and battery.

Are the motor widths different?

Does know why this would or would not work?

I have a Radmission and this basket.  When you have it oriented length-wise it extends to just beneath the saddle and just barely past the rear wheel.  It works but the only caveat is that you can't lower the seat all the way before it hits the basket. 

Great! Now if they were only in stock!

If you're looking to ride up to 25 MPH WITHOUT pedaling, I think it wouldn't be worth the effort with the "fix gearing".  Even at 20 MPH,  it's necessary to crank the pedals way too fast above 15-20 MPH.  What the Rad Mission really needs is a over drive gear so that the pedals don't have to be cranks so fast.  However, with just a higher overall gear, you would lose some of the ability to pedal with the assist turned off.  I generally ride my Mission on level ground at 10-12 MPH WITHOUT pedal assist.  With a higher rear wheel gearing, I would lose non pedal assist riding that would shorten overall range. 

And then it would need a derailleur which would add to the weight. The Mission is a great city bike though IMO.   Love mine with now around 750 miles on it.

Its been my experience, that in pedal assist level 2, I can casually pedal and get up to 17 mph and the pedals don't feel like they are going too fast (for me). In assist level 3, it is pretty easy to pedal up to 20 mph and the pedals don't feel like they are going too fast (for me). if I work really hard, I can go up around 22 -23 mph.

I've actually kind of accepted the 20mph limitation. I used my phone as a speedometer this morning and found that, knowing I am up near 20 mph is helpful, so I don't keep pushing, because going over 20 is so much harder than going just under 20.

Has anyone put this on the rad mission rear rack? basket seems to have holes for either orientation, but it looks like it might not fit longways front to back. Anyone try this?

They aren't in stock right now at Rad? does anyone had a good alternative that works well with the rad mission rear rack?

I want something I can toss my backpack in and throw a bungie cord over the top.

$100 is a lot for that display upgrade. I personally prefer the minimal design of the controller that comes with the Mission, but I would be willing to upgrade for higher top speed. There seems to be some back and forth between the modding community and Rad about making the bikes go faster.

I read online that some of the 'hacks' for the rad runner are no long effective. So I wanted to know if purchasing the upgraded display would allow me to increase the top speed to 25mph, or if that exploit had been removed.

I reached out to rad and asked...

I've read online that upgrading to the LCD display on the radmission will allow me to increase the max speed of the pedal assist to 25mph. Is that true? is this considered a 'Hack'. I didn't see it mentioned on the LCD display upgrade page.

They respond with this...

Thanks for your email about upgrading your display. Unfortunately we do not recommend changing your Max Speed to above 20MPH or 32 KMH as the bikes are designed with this speed in mind.
On the upgraded LCD you are able to check your top speed in settings and the display has many great features like an odometer, speedometer and backlighting

So, they didn't really answer my question. I would have appreciated an answer like, 'yeah, you can, but we don't recommend it'.
