I'm thinking of doing the same thing. They've had my order since the end of July. I've seen people buying at stores and on FB receiving them after I've placed my order.

They had no problem taking my money.

This works great. It's small and fast.

That's BS as I see a lot post of people unboxing and others picking up at stores.
  I think since I ordered in July I should get mine before others who ordered later or picked up at the store.

I ordered on 7/28 a charcoal ST. Haven't heard a thing. But I see plenty of people who ordered weeks after me getting bikes.

I ordered mine 7/28 and have heard nothing at all. I see post where people have ordered a couple of weeks ago and received them. Pisses me off.

I'm glad your happy with it , I was worried at first since I have one on order.
   It would be nice if there is a hidden menu to up the speed a little.
   How was your battery life ?

I ordered one too. Before I buy different seats or suspension post I'm going to ride it for a couple of weeks. It take a while to break in your butt for riding. I learned that lesson years ago.

You would think if you went in the store and saw one for sale they could look it up see that you had paid for one already.

Thanks for the code ! I had ordered and received accessories 8/11. I called and gave the code and they put 50.00 back on my card !
  Great customer service!

Thanks so much for your impressions - nice surprise to see you've got a couple.   Did you have a Rad or other e-bike previously?

I noticed that Rad made no effort to increase the motor power claim, battery capacity or battery voltage, so the only thing they could do is what they've claimed to get better hill-climbing - mess with the motor's internal planetary gear ratio.  I'm surprised you don't see any benefit from that.

My flaky knees begged me for a step-thru and since I'm 5'7" and inseam-challenged I went with the MiniST2 - I think even the Rover step-thru frame would be too much hassle for me.  I weigh a little more than you and the Mini still scoots up even the tallest hills in my hilly town (with some pedal assist on a few of them, of course, but not a lot unless I feel like it), due to the same motor and power as the Rovers, but spinning much smaller 20" wheels, so it's sort of "geared down" compared to a Rover.  I normally use minimal pedal assist and do as much as I can, to get exercise benefit from the bike, but have tested hill-climbing with little or no pedaling to see how well she does.  It's actually a much better hill-climber for my weight than I expected it would be when I ordered it in March.

I really like this bike and if you consider returning your RR6, would definitely recommend looking at the Mini line, which is on sale until Aug 31st for $200 (maybe $250 if they'll take the additional $50 code) off list price, making it a pretty sweet deal at $1,249 or so.  My only regret about mine is that I didn't get a deal like that!

If you pop for one by chance, perhaps you could mosey on over to one of Ryan's discount-code pages to see what you can find and use his purchase links to get him a bit of benefit at no cost to you.

Thanks for the info - please keep 'em coming!  I'm always interested in other models even though I'm completely content with my MiniST.
let us know what the tech says , maybe it needs a update or something.

RadRover / 6 plus reviews
August 23, 2021, 04:17:30 AM
Now that the 6 plus is in some stores I'd like to see more reviews. Seen a couple but they didn't see very promising. Since I have one on order I'd like to see more reviews not just paid YouTube reviewers.
