That's awesome! Thanks for sharing. Good to see the MRI-Denver accessories in action.

I don't have any slick solutions here. I'd probably find a box that works or cut up cardboard and do something custom to wrap around the battery with some velcro to secure it. Maybe use some bubble wrap or other packaging for extra protection on the inside so you can just slide in and out the battery.

Just ordered the Mirrycle mirror from Amazon hope it fits fat tire 2019 rover.

You won't be disappointed. It is by far the most popular mirror of Rad Power Bikes owners.

Is there a preferred cage for the 2019 fat tire bike?  Just got my bike and want to buy the correct fitting cage and rear view handlebar end mirror

I would say it's more about where of a question of where you want to mount it. Any standard water bottle cage will work underneath the frame where there are holes, but that isn't an ideal spot. That's why many people opt for these more creative solutions.

There is a shop out of Denver who is making some custom parts for Rad Power Bikes. See picture attached - this is pretty slick way to mount your water bottle although also a bit pricey:

Just ordered two white ones for my wife's RadWagon and mine as well.

Thanks!!

I believe you can buy the MRI-Denver MTX plates which are then compatible with the Topeak bags though that probably won't save you much over swapping out the rack: https://mri-denver.com/shop?olsPage=t%2Frad-power-bike-accessories

Alternatively you could get the strap style bags which is probably the easiest option. I am personally not aware of any bags that fit the Rad rear racks off the shelf though maybe someone else can chime in here.

Hi, I'm Chad from St. Paul, MN. I Love my 2019 Radrover! I've put about 100 miles on it this past week. [emoji106]

Welcome Chad! It's certainly peak riding season here in the midwest (I'm in Wisconsin). Nice view and looks like a pretty comfy seat you've put on.

A lot of folks wonder how it is possible to use a child trailer with Rads. While every trailer is slightly different I wanted to create a thread where folks can share what they've done to attach trailers. Here is how the trailer I have connects. It's a clamp style so I opted to cut custom running boards on my RadWagon and saved the stock ones in case I want to use them again. While I wouldn't want to put a ton of weight in the back it seems to be holding up just fine so far. See pictures below

Well I do not have a Spoke issue. I had all the spokes checked and they were all fine. I also had the brakes checked. Unfortunately, I am still having some drive train noise that appears to be coming from the cranks or gears.   I am headed back to the shop tomorrow,  though the noise is not affecting the performance.   105 miles in 12 days, not too bad.

Bummer! Do keep us updated on the issue.

I'm experiencing the ticking, too.  I just got the bike this week and only have 35 miles on it so I was worried.  Thanks for the advice.  I could not find anything rubbing, so I assume it is spokes!  I'll be fixing them tomorrow.

Glad I could help - let us know how it goes. This is one of the most common issues with Rad Power Bikes when people receive them though it is an easy fix and a good learning experience.

I am contemplating to get a RadCity.
I am a little bit concerned about the frame size in 19in, which is the same as the smaller frame, when I compare dimesnions, s.a. reach, wheelbase, etc..  Only Seat post and handlebar height are different.
I would also prefer a bigger wheel diameter, s.a. as a 29er or 27.5. (My previous MTB was agile with a 26" wheel but not very stable at higher speeds.) Any information if increased wheel diameters are planned for the next generation bike?

What is your concern with the 19 in? As far as I know this is how all bikes are sized with the longer seat tube. I haven't seen an instance where there wasn't a Rad bike that would fit someone. I doubt they will go with larger diameter tires, though if you're looking for stability perhaps the Rover or Mini would be a better option. I'm 6ft and my wife is 5 ft 5 in and we both fit our Wagon without any problems, simply have to adjust the seat height.

Very nice setup! Great idea for folks who don't have the garage space.

Hi, new member from Skagit Valley, WA.  I'm in my late 60s and my wife and I are thoroughly enjoying our matching 2019 City step-throughs.  We've been out of the cycling scene for a long time, and since retiring we tried getting back into it.  Unfortunately, there's a steep up-hill section to get back to our house and it sucked all of the fun out of the ride to struggle with that last stretch.  That is, until we got the Rad bikes.

We've been hitting the local streets and designated bike trails in order to get comfortable before venturing out into traffic, but we look forward to many trips. We intend to take these with us camping in our small RV so we can explore different areas without needing to tow our car.

Thanks for this forum; I hope it becomes a vibrant community of like-minded people.  I'm also in the FB Rad group, but there's no comparison to the benefits one gets from a well-run forum.

Awesome! It is so great to hear stories of people getting outside with the help of electric bikes. Taking them with a camper sounds like a fun adventure, would be great to see some pictures of your setup with the camper. Thanks for joining the forum.

I thought it would be good to have an easy to consume list of all commonly recommended accessories for Rad Power Bikes. In some cases these are Amazon links to the same products Rad sells directly on their website as accessories and in other cases they are alternative options for accessories. If you have something you love on your Rad please share it below. Note where applicable these are affiliate links which help support the maintenance of this site. I will continue to try to keep the list organized as it grows. If you're looking for an easier to view list you can view the same list over at my website Ebike Escape: https://ebikeescape.com/electric-bike-accessories/
