Upgrade from RR5 to RR6+

[jqtuttle]

I'm new to this forum; glad I found it.  Some very useful information for my Rad Power Bikes.

My wife and I have been Rad ebike owners for a little over 4 years now.  Started off with a RadRover 5 for both of us - step-thru for her, and step-over for me.  She found the RR5 a bit too large and heavy for her to handle.  So after about 4 weeks we sold it (nearly what we paid for it) and got her a RadCity 5 Plus step-thru, which was much better suited for her.  Actually test drove it at the store in Berkeley, CA before making the purchase.

The RR5 step-over for me is a great bike.  Have enjoyed it thoroughly; but stepping over will become a bit more difficult in the coming years (70 now).  So I took advantage of the Rad sale and purchased a RadRover 6 Plus step-thru just a few weeks ago.  Great bike so far (even with the front end wobble so many have observed when riding hands free at about 15-16 mph).  Made some upgrades to the bike already:

1.  Rad handlebar mirror - despite the site saying it would fit the RR6+, I moved it from my RR5 over to the RR6+.  Fits fine snugged up to the controller/display.

2.  Rad rear rack, and moved the Rad small basket and small bag over from the RR5.  Also moved over the under-seat saddle bag.

3.  Rad Premium Headlight moved over from the RR5.

4.  The Rad Top Tube Bag on my RR5 clearly wouldn't mount to the RR6+ Step-Thru, so added the Compact Bar Bag from Almsthre.  https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DRDFZF54?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1

5.  Purchased a Lamicall Phone Mount Holder but found it wouldn't mount cleanly because of the shape of the RR6+ handle bars.  Nice holder, with access to all my iPhone buttons. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BN551HR2?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1

6.  To make mounting the phone holder mount cleanly, purchased a handlebar extender with 8" long cross bar, which fit perfectly between the sloped RR6+ handlebars.  Moved the 2nd display up to the cross bar, and now the phone holder mounts cleanly next to that.  The extender kit included rubber spacer/grommets to adapt the 2nd display to the cross bar.

7.  Researched a bit and found this great add - Bottle Cage Mounting Bracket for Rad Power Bikes.  Will be able to add a bottle cage easily to the RR6+.

Now to get some mileage on this new bike!  Here are some pics of my new ride with the updates.
