Service & Repair / Rhino 6+ abrasive sound...motor ?
March 20, 2022, 07:21:47 AM
Hi Rad-bikers ,

I just bought a Rad Rhino 6+ and a Rad Rhino 6+ ST for the misses.
The bikes are from the Rad Power Bike Store at Utrecht/Holland.
So these bikes are EU models with the 250w motor... :-\
Still...they are awesome bikes and we love to ride.

Last week my wife was riding aside me and she heard a scratching/abrasive sound at the middle/back of my bike.
The sound is there when i'm pedaling or not pedaling , not every step , but almost every stem/pedal.
I set the bike on his kickstand and i think it was located at middle/rear.
When i shut the bike of and pedal when bike is off , there is no abrasive sound.
I guess the sound comes from the motor...

First i thought it was the brakes so i went to my local bikeshop and they adjust the rear brakes/caliper.
That was not the problem/sound.

Anyone has this "problem" ?

video+sound attached (no virus)
