All Rad eBikes are either UL Certified or tested by ACT to comply with UL 2849 standards. This certification indicates that their bikes and electric systems have undergone rigorous testing to meet safety standards set by UL, a respected third-party organization. Despite U.S. guidelines not currently requiring eBikes to meet UL Certification, Rad Power Bikes goes the extra mile to ensure their riders feel safe in the saddle.
All-weather stopping power
Ride rain or shine. Every ebike comes with brakes tested for all-weather stopping ability.
See and be seen
Safety is paramount to Rad engineers. Reflective striping is incorporated on tire sidewalls, plus LED headlights and taillights come standard on every model.
Precision in practice
Every eike receives a thorough 50-point inspection before it reaches your door. How in-depth is it? Even the screws are double-checked.

Rad Power Bikes was founded by Mike Radenbaugh in 2007. As a teenager, Mike built his first electric bike, known as “The Frankenbike,” to make his 15-mile commute to high school more manageable. This innovative creation sparked his passion for electric bikes, leading him to convert traditional bicycles into e-bikes for local customers.
In 2015, Mike teamed up with his childhood friend Ty Collins to relaunch Rad Power Bikes as a direct-to-consumer business. They introduced the RadRover, an electric fat tire bike that quickly gained popularity and set the stage for the company’s rapid growth. Over the years, Rad Power Bikes expanded its product line to include various models like the RadWagon, RadMini, and RadCity, catering to different riding needs and preferences.
Today, Rad Power Bikes is the largest e-bike brand in North America, with over 550,000 riders worldwide. The company continues to innovate and lead the industry, focusing on making electric transportation accessible, enjoyable, and energy-efficient.

Life changing
I am able to do so many more things with this bike than I could with my traditional bike. It’s dependable, sturdy, and quick. The only thing is that sometimes the assist doesn’t come on while I’m pedaling, which can be a drag. Hee hee.

Rad Ride
This has been a very solid ride. Ive been riding this now for a month and it has made my commute so much fun. The folding feature helps getting it in my car as i prefer to take it around parks nearby. Usually get almost to the 40 mile range on pedal assist so no issues there. Overall very happy with this bike!

Extremely heavy
Heaviest and bulkiest foldable bike I have ever owned.

Bike works as advertised, pictured.
Bike works as advertised, pictured. I am 6’ 1” and would like another 25mm on the seat post. Right hand throttle is “handy”. 5 electric assist speeds work great but learning curve is high. Coordination with traditional shift a learning process. Folds and stores easily and has a sturdy joint. Front fork fender bosses painted over. Could not thread the bolts to install front fender. Had to go find a tap to run the threads. 5M BTW not 4M as bag says. So I bought 2 taps. Other than that, great electric bike

Rad expand 5
Stiff ride. Seat very uncomfortable. Stop riding it, till I find a comfortable seat. I had bought a lot of accessories, for the bike that didn’t come with it.

Decent entry to e-bikes
I have enjoyed getting used to the e-bike experience. There is ample power and decent battery longevity. The upright stance takes getting used to, particularly if you are accustomed to traditional bike geometry.
There is a lot of noise in the brakes, giving the impression of cheap quality parts.
I also sense the 20mph limiter kicks in hard, which gives the impression it’s an arbitrary limiter. I would love to have the option of changing it, as it interferes with cruising when coupled with the meager 7 speed option. Awkward limits.
Otherwise, very fun!
