Title: Food Delivery on Rad Power Bikes RadRover
Post by: Ryan on January 31, 2019, 07:26:33 PM
I saw this video and thought it was pretty cool. It's a guy in Chicago delivering UberEats with a RadRover. Looks like he's got a pretty nice setup with a rear bag that holds food and drinks. I imagine this is far more profitable when you're doing it on an electric bike compared to a car in bigger cities. At the end he shows he made $140 for around 7 hours of work. Enjoy!

Oh gosh! That looks amazing. I live in a smaller town and we barely have delivery anywhere. This would be such a FUN job!

My personal food delivery with my Rad :)

Found this bag from here (not sure if there is similar bags available f.ex. in the USA?) :

Maybe not the strongest and largest bags out there, but I love the idea! (https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20200405/e541dafa58d8f6c559fac113f7cbeb29.jpg)

That's a great deal, even has clips for under $10 euros. We have used similar bags and just tie them to our Wagon. Going to get a more permanent solution at some point but looking for something that is compatible when the Thule Yepp seat is attached.

There is no way that can be profitable in a suburb type setting.  I can see it in a big city for a side gig.  but no way i could do it where I am at.

Of course, you have to locate yourself where there is need for a service like this and enough customers. A bit like being a taxi driver I guess.

Found another Uber Eats delivery guy on a Rad bike in Toronto:
