Hey PBP glad to see your post. I was worried about you, with the pandemic and the world, the way it is today you just never know.

I would think the rad mini wood be the better choice over the rad city because of the type of motor it has. The geared hub motor over the direct drive motor. the geared hub motor is more powerful on hills and that's what the RR has also.

Has anyone heard from the Peanutbutterpope, or received a battery extender from him. I have tried to message him and haven't herd back from him and it seems this post has died out for some reason. Does anyone know what's going on.  Some news would be helpful. Thanks in advance. I hope all is well. Thanks Russ

Robws! If you decide to go with an after market rack, You'll need a wire extension for mounting your tail lite to the back of the rack. I got mine from Bolton Ebikes which is now called Area 13 Ebikes.  Also read my previous post, I made some additions to the info.

I bought the Ibera Bike Rack,  Bicycle Touring Carrier Plus+ get for Disc Brakes IB-RA5. Bought on amazon, fit perfect. Doesn't cost as much as rad rack. Also bought the bag that fits on the rack. Bellow the Amazon add they offer the bundle deals, the rack with different types of bags. The bags snap on and off the rack real easy. Bag I got is heavy duty, works great. I'm able to carry my extra battery in the bag on the rear rack, on my RR ST.  The bag I got is the PakRak Commuter Bag IB- BA11. Check the different bags out on the Ibera web site.

I have the same bike and when I put my spare battery in my luggage bag on my rear rack I also get the same wobble. Take the battery out of the bag and wobble goes away. I'm glad to here I'm not the only one experiencing  this issue. I also have a stem riser like that one only longer. There's plenty of stem sticking up to install the riser to.

I have spent a lot of time reading about the up grades for power products from Bolton ebikes , now called Area 51. Seems to me that I read That changing the motor alone won't work without changing the controller along with the 750 motor. You can just change the controller and screen and that will work. But if you change the motor you also need to change the controller and screen also for it to work correctly.

 Patch the tube or replace it and install 8OZ. of flat out in both your tires.
