I have ordered this ramp:

I haven't even bought the bike yet (city 5 plus), but I got to try loading it into the back of my small SUV and found it very difficult. I have ordered a loading ramp:

Or you might want to invest in a "motorcycle" loading ramp. I have ordered one and I haven't even got the bike yet (City 5 Plus). The one I ordered is:

I like the raised edges for safety. This is for loading into the back of my SUV; It may not be long enough for ten stairs, but there are others out there.

This probably is largely due to resentment over the dominance of Rad in the industry.

To address the loading problem I have ordered a small loading ramp:

Thanks for the responses. Any chance Rad would offer a small upgrade on the lefthand display? I think it should be free but I'm willing to pay something.

I am very close to buying a 5 City Plus step-through. I took a short test ride for the first time today (I'm in Seattle) and am quite excited. My misgivings are as follows:

• The test-ride woman nicely let me try to load it into the back of my Subaru Forester. She helped me remove the front wheel, then I hoisted it up. It jammed a bit because it was vertical, but I think it is doable with adequate planning. However, it was anything but easy (I'm 71 years old and have lost muscle mass). The test-ride bike had a different saddle without the handle--does that help much? Also, I did not remove the battery.
  
• I have read a number of reviews that fault the small lefthand display for not being bright enough in sunlight; I had a little trouble reading it even on a cloudy day. Any thoughts? Is that the only way to determine the assist level?
  
• Re: security. Is the Arbus (?) wheel lock that Rad sells useful, at least for brief in-and-out errands? Does anyone use concealed Apple Air Tags?
  
  
  Thanks in advance,
