Got work to do? A wide selection of racks, bags and accessories let you build the perfect bike for. All the while, it was fun, fast and safe, especially with those great new brakes. With wide, effective fenders as standard and optional panniers hanging off the rear rack, I used it to run errands, hit the grocery store, commute to my day job and with the large open front rack, even made some trips to drop off packages that were too big to fit in the pannies. In the commuting realm, the RadRover 6 is a reliable workhorse. MORE FROM FORBES Review: Rad Power Bikes' RadRover 5 Is The Hummer Of Electric Bikes By
Rad offers a very wide range of accessories for the RadRover (and all their bikes) so you can really dial it in for your specific needs. Rad was kind enough to send along both front and rear racks for RadRover 6 since I like to commute and use ebikes as car replacements. The 5 fit me just fine, the 6 felt just right as well, but also was rideable by my much shorter partner. Under power, I was happy to see the fun factor from the 5 is intact with the 6, and even enhanced by the reworked motor and slightly updated ergos. Rad also relocated some electrical bits that cleaned up the frame’s lines nicely, and for the 6 they added some tasteful orange highlights on the wheels and frame that give the burly bike a bit more drip. The rear hub motor, designed by Rad, is also improved, and I noticed better climbing power and smoother engagement over the 5. The front forks feature 60mm of travel and it can also be locked out, and it retains preload adjustment as well. Up top, new twin LCD panels show a wealth of information (including the time) in a more simplified and readable way, with the second smaller display showing assist level and featuring new big control buttons on the left bar - a big improvement over the tiny buttons on the 5’s nubbin.
