Title: shipping rover
Post by: matty on May 06, 2020, 06:20:06 AM
I ordered a radrover a couple weeks ago the site says shipping in June. Anyone know how shipping is going in this time of Covid?


6-23-2020 Update I got my RadRover 2 weeks ago today and I love it! I put over 50miles on it despite my busy life at the moment.

It had to have been backordered right? I know they are definitely backed up and last I checked there were only three models in stock ready to ship. I know Rad support is getting a bit overwhelmed and they aren't as quick to respond (we are in the middle of a pandemic after all). Once the bikes arrive in the US I'm sure you'll get it pretty quickly.

Yes back ordered. I just am getting a little antsy to get out on my new bike! I am hoping to get some time off next month and would love to be able to do some good long rides in the woods...

I ordered my Radrover 5  in Mid April. At that time the bike was due to ship in June which was fine. However, I checked the website today and the shipping date has been pushed back until July. I got the E-bike fever, so I'm kind of bummed.

Shoot, that is a huge bummer! I wonder if it is worth reaching out. I feel like Rad is pretty good about giving realistic dates for shipping out bikes though maybe there are some further delays.

Have faith.  We ordered ours around the same time and they said late May/early June.  I'm hoping the new July delivery date is for new orders placed today and not for orders already in the system.

Thanks, I hope that's the case. I'm gonna think positive thoughts (  No negative waves Moriarity!)  The weather's getting nice and I wanna ride!

I ordered 2 rad rover step-thrus on the 19th. One white and one black. The sales rep said the white would ship June but the Black would be July.
