RAD POWER RADCITY 5 PLUS UPDATE
The second major update that will likely catch the eye is the new motor. I’ve ridden plenty of Rad Power Bikes e-bikes and range has never been issue.

It offers reasonable range of around 25-50 miles depending on if you’re ripping on the throttle or taking it easy with pedal assist. The battery is still 672 Wh, which is on the larger size of the e-bike battery spectrum. On the Step-through version, it allows the frame to be even more accessible with extra room to swing a leg through. Not only does that create a sleeker package by hiding away the battery, but it also frees up a lot more space in the triangle of the step-over frame. Just like the RadRover 6 Plus, the RadCity is getting Rad’s newly designed battery pack that slides down into the frame. The first and most obvious is a new battery. There are a pile of new updates to the RadCity that turn it into the RadCity Plus. Extras: dual displays, higher accuracy battery gauge, front and rear LED lights, 5 speed settings, half-twist throttle, higher power USB charging ports (optional), mounting for front and rear racks, fenders included standard, redesigned battery, higher torque motor.Suspension: 60 mm travel spring suspension fork with preload adjustment and lockout.Frame: 6061 aluminum, high step or step-thru.Range: 45-72 km (25-45 mi) depending on throttle or pedal assist.

Or both! RadCity 5 Plus e-bike video review You can see my first ride experience on the new e-bike below, or you can keep reading for the complete run down. Both the RadCity step-over and RadCity step-through are getting a number of similar upgrades to create the RadCity 5 Plus edition. Now Rad is following a similar path with the commuter-ready RadCity e-bike line. When the new RadRover 6 Plus landed, we witnessed a slew of awesome new upgrades like hydraulic disc brakes, a new motor, upgraded display, sleeker semi-integrated battery, new lighting, and other improvements. That’s where Rad takes an existing e-bike and upgrades the quality and utility of the bike by adding new features and higher spec components.Įarlier this summer we saw Rad Power Bikes do something similar with its most popular e-bike, the fat tire RadRover. The new RadCity 5 Plus is the latest e-bike in Rad’s lineup to get the “Plus” treatment. The team at Rad kindly gave me the opportunity to get an early test ride on the new RadCity 5 Plus, and today I’m taking you along with me to see what makes this new e-bike tick. The RadCity 5 Plus e-bike from Rad Power Bikes has just been launched with a pile of new upgrades, making it the most extensive update to the RadCity electric commuter e-bike yet.
