Hello -
Having an issue charging my Rad Semi-Integrated Battery Pack. Battery does not charge.
While the Rad Semi-Integrated Battery Pack is connected to the Rad Battery Charger in order
to charge the battery, the light remains green and does not go to red while charging.
The Rad Battery Charger does work. Any ideas??? Thanks

General Chat / Signs A Battery Is Dying
« on: May 11, 2022, 08:23:54 AM »
On my Rad 6-Plus battery, I have noticed that the driving distance has decreased dramatically. I weigh 155 pounds, always ride on flat asphalt roadway and only ride on level assist 2 or 3 and rarely use the throttle. During the first 100 miles, I was averaging 35 miles on a fully charged battery. During the last month after riding 900 miles, I have averaged only 14 miles per full charge. Any suggestions ? Is the battery dying ? Did I do something wrong ? Battery defective ?  Thanks Joe Florida

On my new RadRover 6 Plus my handlebar display indicates 8 bars of power available

Which one is correct and is this an item of concern? Thanks

General Chat / Extending Battery Life
« on: February 20, 2022, 07:00:57 AM »
Greetings -

I have read, but don't understand about not fully charging nor depleting the battery charge in order to extend the battery life.
Can anyone please explain what is balancing a new battery as some here have suggested not to and some have suggested to
balance a new battery and how does one balance a battery anyways? Any other ideas in extending battery life. Thanks  Joe Florida

General Chat / RadCity 5 Plus will not power-up
« on: February 11, 2022, 04:49:03 PM »
Hello-

My brand new, one day old RadCity 5 Plus will not power-up. Rad customer service elevated my service request to
a senior team member for assistance and waiting for his reply.
Other than checking all the connections and those suggestions provided on the Rad website,
anyone have any suggestions before this bike works it way back to Seattle for a second time? Thanks

General Chat / Controller question
« on: February 02, 2022, 10:08:30 AM »
Having issues with my RadCity where the brake lights do not illuminate when brake lever is pulled and the headlights turn on and off by themselves.
Are these issues related to the Controller?
What issues arise when the Controller is defective ?
Thanks

General Chat / Minimizing flats
« on: January 30, 2022, 07:44:45 AM »
Obviously, there is no such thing as no-flat tires, but what do you electric guys do in order to minimize flats.
As an old road cyclist, I have used the following-
Tire Slime sealant
Inner liner
high quality tubes
Puncture-resistant Tires and Tubes
increase tire pressure to maximum level & quality tire pressure gauge
avoid all areas subjected to construction debris such as nails & glass
high quality rim tape
always inspect tires before each ride
minimize riders weight, easier said than done
Convert to tubeless
Ride with your cellular and cash, just in case

Any other ideas ???   Joe Florida  Thanks

Just waiting for delivery of my E-bike and was wondering if anyone ever transports their e-bike "inside" of their vehicle.
One of my vehicles is a CRV and although the bike will squeeze into the trunk, just wondering if anyone had any
