2018 RAD CITY FREEWHEEL UPGRADE

[@genemcloud4114]

This was an excellent video. No annoying music and the narrative was just right. Although I’m not changing from my 14-34 to the 11-34 as you have, this is extremely helpful to me nonetheless. Thank you so much!

[@agsmith001]

thanks! love my old rad city, still gets me to work every day!

[@chrismaki8396]

An excellent video detailing the process with clear camera work and great audio. Don’t own a Rad bike but have watched many XP vids and nine can compare to your work. Thank you.

A clear and excellent set of instructions for changing the freewheel on a RadCity bike!

Thanks so much for this video. I had to replace my freewheel on 2019 Radwagon and was dead in the water until I watched your video on removing the nut with a chisel. I thought I had purchased the wrong freewheel removal tool. And it would likely set me back a week or two while trying to correspond with Rad. They are super backed up right now. But this really helped and I got the job done. Cheers

You're the first! Thank you. Saved me a lot of time.

[@GAZOD]

Hi great video can you please tell me how this freewheel is holding up after a few years. thanks

[@ivan-j4l9x]

This is probably a silly question but is it possible to remove the biggest sprocket gear 1 to make this a 6 speed? There doesn't seem to be any freewheels available with an 11 tooth high gear.

[@richardburguillos3118]

Nicely done... Wonder if it will fit the RadWagon. I believe we have the same motor.

[@CaptBill69]

Thinking this for modification for my 2017 RadRover. I want a higher top gear. Wondering if I really need that split type tool you said was for the radrover. ??? as I have a full circle freewheel remove /reinstall tool. Thank for showing what is involved.

Life savor🎉

Thank you again for another great video! I have one question where can I get that tool that has the split in it so I can get my freewheel off. Also just a side note I purchase your skid plate and I love it. it protects all my wires and the sensor thank you so much for making such a great product.

Thanks being seeing loads video for best part most just cover same size gear cog size replacement and none of which was electric driven hubs going to order upgrade size 7 speed freewheel and unlocking tool and if I have really also worn out my chain then I order one once I save that too my cyclotricity stealth 1000w feel like a bulldozer once out battery so this higher gearing may help a little only one 52 Drive wheel upfront, unlike normal mountain bikes with 2 wheel drive and 7.... Speed thanks again

Hi. I have the same 11-34T cassette freewheel and i have a problem on the 6th and 7th gear, I feel vibrations when pedaling. I thought it was the chain's fault, maybe it's not compatible with the new freewheel because the old freewheel cassette has slightly thicker gears than DNP. Can you tell me if it works ok for you and you don't feel any vibrations when pedaling? And can you recommend me pls a good chain to change the old one? Best regards.

Sir what is the benifits of this modification?

[@VideoMusicManiacPlace]

Why don't you answer these question sir? William, A regular freewheel tool looks like it would work. Let us know if you try.

[@ronaldramsey7774]

Hi William I'm just don't regularly check my KZbin so I have a life that keeps me busy but I had to use the rad tool because of the design nothing else will fit in over the wire

[@woundedtiger7547]

Did you buy two because one for the city, an one for the rover?

[@ronaldramsey7774]

Yes, but I never got around to doing the Rover

[@williamhoag7181]

Where did you get the freewheel removal tool for the RadRover?

[@ronaldramsey7774]

Yes I purchased it from rad

[@francoislepine4698]

Correct me if I'm wrong...but I don't think you have to remove what you called the "safety link" in your video to remove the wheel off the bike....at least not on my 2019 City ST...I've had FOUR flats and fixed them all in the field, removing the wheel every time....never had to remove your "safety link".

[@francoislepine4698]

@@ronaldramsey7774No misunderstanding on my part. I prefer to remove the wheel (and take the tube right out) to fix a flat. I've removed the wheel off my bike half a dozen times... Never had to touch those two screws. You should contact RadPower and point out their mistake/omission in the wheel removal/reinstall tutorial. radpowerbikes.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360045365353-RadCity-Rear-Wheel-Removal-Guide#

[@wilbertbalonzo652]

what is the brand of that freewheel sprocket

[@ronaldramsey7774]

I apologize I purchased them so long ago I don't recall but they came from a gentleman out of Taiwan and you had to buy two at a time he would not tell a single

[@umatillagarry]

Forgive my ignorance but why do you want to do this?

[@ronaldramsey7774]

It gives the rider pedal Authority over the bike so it does not feel like there's literally been in the pedals with no effect

[@fromthetwoonetwo8378]

Downgrade the shimano freewheel is the best
