I got the cell holder like the one RAD sells but were out of stock.  Amazon had it for the same price. Mounting on the left side of the bar in the portrait position, it blocks the view of the mode and assist switches but is high enough I can reach them w/o any problem.

I have almost 70 miles on my Rover already and love it.

It took about 6 weeks from order to delivery for my rover.  My wife's step through (ordered at the same time) came within a week.  Hers was in stock.

Assembled mine this morning and added accessories and went for a short test checkout ride.  Works great.  Over 100* here today so a bit warm for a longer ride.

Back to the excersize routine tomorrow.

We ordered the rover and the rover step thru in april.  The step thru arrived in about a week.  I'm still waiting for my rover.  Now with the crap going on in Seattle who knows when it will ship now.
Saw a FedEx truck attacked on the news yesterday. :-\

Well, my wife called Rad to ask about the shipping status.  They said my bike should ship next week but they cannot promise that.  At least we know where we are in the queue.

Aside from that she asked about the vet discount and the 2 bike discount.  They said that since my bike hasn't shipped yet, they will process the discounts.  Yesterday we got an email that we are getting $400 credit on our card.

Thanks Ryan for the suggestion and thanks Rad for following through.

Now if my bike could get here... ;D

Go to this link and download the manual and watch the assembly video.

Its not difficult and Rad sends all the tools you will need. It may take you a little over an hour.

Well, I'm an AF vet and I didn't notice the discount until after we placed the order.  Oh well.

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.

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.

I have a couple of Trek 950s that we have owned for many years.  They were USA owned and made.  No Longer.  The cost of the Trek e-bikes are prohibitive.  Most of their bikes are $3k and up.  Also they don't have a 4" fat tire.

Although Rad isn't made in the US, for cost, features, fat tires, and positive reviews, we decided to go with them.

We ordered a rover hi-step and a step-thru in April.  We received  the step-thru  right away and are enjoying it, but we are still waiting for the other one.  When we ordered they said late May or early June.  I hope its soon.
