Is the Rad Power Bike RadTrike for you? | The Perfect Ride Series

The RadTrike from Rad Power Bikes is a pretty popular trike. Is it for you? Well, that's what we aim to find out in this video. #radpowerbikes #rad #trike #etrike #electrictrike #review #affordable #budget ‪@RadPowerElectricBikes‬ Rad Power Bike Official - https://www.radpowerbikes.com/collect... Price Point The first to chat about is the price. Currently, the RadTrike is priced at $1,699, so is that in your budget? I don't know your financial situation, but this is a good question to ask yourself. Rad Power Bikes also has financing available with Affirm, so you could finance it for a smaller monthly fee, if that’s what you need to do. Use Case The first question I always ask someone when they walk into Power On Ebikes is if they’re coming in to do some Ebike research. If you’re watching this video, the answer is yes. The second question is always what will they primarily use the Ebike for. Now, if you’re looking at trikes, we can make some assumptions. You want something stable, that will primarily be used for paved or smooth surfaces. A trike is a good option for that. Most trikes don’t have a fast top speed, so you’re also comfortable going about 14MPH, which is the top speed of the RadTrike. You also are looking for a trike that has some decent nominal power, which is true in the case of the RadTrike’s 750-watt front hub motor. You also might want the ability to carry some things with you. Trikes in general usually have a rear basket for that purpose. The RadTrike doesn’t come with a rear basket stock, but you can add that to your order and install it over the rear axle. You’ve also got an option to install a front rack, really opening up the amount of things you can carry. One of the things it does come stock with is the comfort support seat, with an adjustable backrest. This is actually a great upgrade for any trike that allows you to be in an upright riding position, and it’s cool that it comes with the standard RadTrike. As far as weight is concerned, the trike is rated for a maximum payload of 415lbs, with a maximum rider weight of 325lbs. The rear rack is rated for 60lbs carrying capacity. Range The next thing to look at is range, or how far you need your trike to go on a single charge. The RadTrike has a removable 10Ah battery. You need the key to turn it into the on position, but the key does not need to stay in the battery during use. Rad claims you can get 55+ miles of range, it’s more reasonable to assume most folks would get around 40-50 miles, if you’re doing a mix of pedaling and throttle at slower speeds. Now, if you’ve got hills or other factors, your range may decrease a bit, but since we’re not flying around at 28MPH here, I think this will be enough range for most folks. The other factor in range is the fact that the RadTrike is a single speed, so it should fair well with small to average inclines, but probably wouldn’t fare too well with moderate to extreme inclines. Terrain As far as the ideal riding surfaces go, you’re really going to want to stay to paved or tightly packed trails. The tires are a bit on the smaller side, with all 3 tires being 18” x 2.25”. These wouldn’t do well in a soft dirt or sand environment. If you’re primary going to be riding this thing off-road and spending some time in the sand, I’d recommend looking at something that has at least a 4” wide tire. Transport and Weight If you plan on doing any sort of transport or lifting, the weight would be a big factor. I weighed the trike in at 78.79lbs, with the battery installed. The battery itself weighs 8.23lbs, so if you take the battery off, that gets it down to 70.56lbs, and as far as trikes go, that’s not terribly heavy. Now, only you could know if it is too heavy for you to transport, so I’ll leave you with that. Width The width of the trike is 33 ⅛” at the rear wheels. This tells us two things. First, that it will be pretty stable since it has that wider wheelbase. This is one of the more stable trikes I’ve ridden due to its low center of gravity, smaller tires, and wide wheelbase. It’s not impossible to put on two wheels, but you really have to throw your weight into it to do so. It also has a differential in the rear wheel, which means the tires can spin at different speeds, and make basically zero-degree turns. Secondly, it may be difficult to get through some doors, depending on how wide your doors are. I would recommend measuring your doors if you’re in an apartment or a house without a garage. If you have a garage, you should be just fine! Extras Next, let’s chat about some of the extras that come with this trike. First off, we have a full set of fenders on the front and rear tires. We have a full chain guard, which is an excellent touch, and something that is pretty interesting, is a guard over the rear axel assembly, to keep any chain grease from flinging up in the bottom side of the rear rack.
