“To get from A to B, carry shopping and cope with potholes” perfect 👍

So nice to find a UK reviewer after watching a bunch of irrelevant American reviews. Were you able to get any definitive info on whether the Rad complies with EAPC or counts as a motorcycle? Cheers

[@fenlandsurvivor5400]

Hi, yes it's fully compliant in the UK

[@nmbilq]

@@fenlandsurvivor5400 thank you good sir

[@stealthandysteath1069]

Evening mate, looks a nice bit of kit. Very useful tc Andy

[@fenlandsurvivor5400]

Yes it's very useful Andy, using it for all my short journeys

[@AndrewRoachPhotography]

Thanks for this video. I've been comparing the Plus to the original and wondering why US got the Passenger Seat, noe I understand.

[@fenlandsurvivor5400]

Hi, it's a great bike and we'll made i haven't had anything go wrong with it so far

[@tiagodolgner1300]

US version have no restrictions, a better front light and have the full passenger kit. On EU version we have 1/4 of the power, cheaper light and no passenger kit, and we pay basically the same... Seems fair to me...

[@fenlandsurvivor5400]

The US has different laws to the UK on ebikes hence the power restrictions and no throttle

[@WaveForceful]

Cause you keep voting for the tories.

[@WaveForceful]

@@fenlandsurvivor5400 I thought the UK version has a half throttle but is limited to 6kph.

[@LOOMSY]

so its a 750w motor but just restricted to 250w?

[@VideoCentralMedia]

How is it in the rain with the bat

[@GS-xg4nz]

I've found an 'as new' version for sale for £1100. Very tempted but looks like I'd need to change the seat straight away (and the seat post). Hmmm. Thanks for the review.

[@WaveForceful]

It it good for a 18 mile commute every day?

[@srspower]

You can remove the restrictions pretty easy. If you look at the bottom left there is a connection from the speed controller to the motor. You can cover one of the pins with some tape and then go as fast as the setup can take you. You don't get a speedomoter anymore though. That said have you tried holding up and down to access the factory mode on the controller yet? I only ask since not many people have this in the UK.

[@fenlandsurvivor5400]

Hi I have fitted the eggrider it now does full speed

[@brettandresmith]

@@fenlandsurvivor5400 do you get throttle only with the EggRider?

[@fenlandsurvivor5400]

@@brettandresmith hi Brett it's totally customisable I keep the road setting legal and the off road setting unrestricted so you can peddle with assist or just use the throttle

[@mil4oni]

Will this work on radrunner 2 without display. Becouse I want to unlock mine and I don't want to buy eggrider or bigger controller from rad power

[@deeowens]

@@fenlandsurvivor5400 Where'd u get the eggrider. Is it v1 or v2?

[@adamshaw6674]

What's it been like for hills? I've been thinking of the RadMini4 and worried about the hill performance

[@fenlandsurvivor5400]

Unfortunately I live in the fens so the only hills around here are made by mole's 😃

[@fensterputzernuernberg]

@@fenlandsurvivor5400 lucky you no hills 🙂

[@bernadettev351]

Hi , wanted to ask how you modified it to be on 250w motor ? i live in the uk and am really interested in this bike but worry about the motor being higher than what is legal in the uk , thank you in advance :)

[@fenlandsurvivor5400]

If you buy from radpower eu it's fully compliant with UK laws

[@fensterputzernuernberg]

Have you ever had an EU bike before ? . what about hills ? distance on a full charge ? over all thoughts ?

[@timeisoverjesusiscoming6996]

The eggrider is suitable for rad Runner

[@fenlandsurvivor5400]

Yes it works well

[@InkDropFalls]

You need to check more on this ...UK version is not 750w .....It only 500w and restricted to 250w ..

[@billykemal2334]

May I ask how long you had to wait for your bike to get delivered ? Loool obviously I’m still waiting lol

[@fenlandsurvivor5400]

It was eight weeks in my case Billy

[@onthemantlepiece422]

This great looking utility bike has a 750w motor in the US. Why does the nanny state of the EU (and UK) have to take the fun and utility out of everything? They want us to stop using our cars, (especially now with their myopic Ukraine sanctions debacle) yet cripple the electric bike market with their ridiculous nanny state laws. I’d have one of these in a moment, if it came with its traditional 750w motor, but not with an absurdly under-powered and quite pathetic 250w.

[@feeham]

EBike law in UK is really childish and makes no sense at all. 250 Watts max....what a joke..just complete non sense and if I am not wrong the law must be approved by some MP driving super rich car with hatred for bike users.

[@WaveForceful]

@@feeham stop voting for the tories or labor then.

[@feeham]

Not worth the money of £1399 originally £1599, with only 250W motor what a joke, it will not help much on hills and with luggage , I just don't get the restriction on power, keep the speed at 15.5 mph but why reducing the wattage, keep the wattage at 750 W , 250W max UK law is just ridiculous. Speed is the culprit not the wattage.

[@-shikajin-4078]

Honestly if you're mainly looking to take luggage on the bike you'd want the RadWagon instead.

[@feeham]

@@-shikajin-4078 yes but even with Rad wagon in UK, motor will be 250 watts, and all videos about Rad Wagon is from USA with 750 Watts, I have currently Carrera Vulcan(UK Brand) with 250 Watts, and on hills bike struggles to move. Most places in UK have very steep hills.

[@troy4312]

so it has a 750w motor but restricted, is it as simple to de-restrict as the cyrusher bikes, e.g a few clicks on control pannel, the uk restrictions are complete nonsense, how the government in their infinite wisdom think a 200lb 6 foot 5 man should be stuck with the same piddly 250w as a tiny little 90lb person is insulting, ive got more power in my ninja blender lol, i test rode one of the "offerings" at halfords utter sh### and the guy says to me that's what your allowed and there's a 90lb 4 foot 10 chick zipping along like its a Suzuki Hayabusa lol, its a joke, even my mates off road self built one with a 1000w motor with 86nm of torque wouldn't get me above 15mph lol so how do the uk government think its okay to say yeah regardless of your size you can only have the same power as a your average smoothie maker lol the facts are even if your on 1000w bike doing 30mph the police wont stop you cause they cant, they wont incase you get hurt while there trying i know this because thats what the police told me when a some kid flew by on the pavement on one of those scooters doing about 30mph and knocked someone over, so ride any power you like just dont stop or ride like a idiot, went on a rant there but it would be nice to just be able to turn off the restrictions with a few clicks to give you full power so it can you up a hill
