General Chat / Re: RadRover 6 Plus!

Hi all. New to this site, and new to e-bikes. I just bought the Radrover 6 Plus yesterday and took it for a quick 10 mile ride. First I'll say that I've been researching the Rad bikes for awhile after renting one. I was going to buy the Rover 5 a few months back, but then the 6 came out and I chose to go this route. I love the look of this bike.

One concern was that I bought the Radrunner Plus for my wife and it would have been nice to have interchangeable batteries, in case I wanted to go for a longer ride in the hills by myself and I could carry the spare in a pack, but honestly, I don't know if I'll ever go for a ride that long, so the concern was minimal.

We both like the screen on the Rover 6 better than the older one. It just looks bigger and brighter. We also love the battery indicator on the actual battery. Something of note, the old batteries could be locked to not be active. The new batteries do not have that feature.

Also, I've seen people talking about speed limitations here, but I'll say that when I did a test ride at the dealership, I easily got the speedometer up to 24, but it was a combo of throttle and pedaling. I haven't tried since getting mine home, so I don't know if something was unlocked on the test ride model, but I can't imagine they would do that with bikes they are putting rookies on.

I'll post more thoughts as I spend more time with it. I'm really looking forward to more trail riding.
