First time e-bike owner here. Finally bit the bullet on purchasing the bike I’ve been dreaming about for over a year. See you at the gas pump never! 🥲🚴♀️🫡

isn’t Rad bankrupt?
Fortius14@reddit
Yes, but they were purchased and still operating with a new owner after restructuring.

Never mind the majority of their batteries are fire hazards.

Lots of people will hate on Rad but my wife and I have the Radster Road and love them. Have fun!

How much does this ebike cost?
Pockets174217@reddit (OP)
It’s the Radster Trail (size Regular). Retails for $1999, but you can get 15% off if you’re a: teacher, EMS, fire fighter, law enforcement, health care worker, or veteran!

They were just 600 a few months ago.

Mind if I ask why a Rad? With the company being so shaky I'd worry about parts and spares in the future.
gleman@reddit
I think it's mostly commodity parts so I wouldn't worry too much about that.
It's a cool looking bike.

Bought one last week myself. My commute takes the same time but I don't have to sit in traffic, get exercise and fresh air, and take some money from MAGA donors by not using their gas (although they own the utilities also). It's a WIN all around! Safe travels and enjoy.

Oh yes. You are gonna love your ebike. Expensive fuel is definitely driving the ebike market.
Ride safe. Stay visible.
