Product Evolution & Refinement

Product Introduction:

The Rad Wagon revolutionized multi person and family micro mobility. Since its inception it has had the largest impact to car replacement in the entire line of products and has grown a fanatical user base. This highly engaged consumer group provided crucial feedback on areas for potential product growth when moving the design from version 4 to 5.

Current Owners Feedback

"My whole family absolutely loves the bike but when I have them both on the back with their schoolbags, etc the bike can be a little hard to handle especially at slow speeds. I am also only 5'0" tall so keeping the bike stable when it is loaded makes getting on and off challenging."

"I live at the top of a pretty bug hill in Seattle and when I have the bike fully loaded with a passenger and groceries I struggle to make it up without standing and working pretty hard. Can we get more power??"

"I am new to cycling and am now in love with this bike and cylcling everywhere I can but I don't feel comfortable taking my hand off the handlebars to signal to other people when I am turning. Turn signals would make me feel much safer."

"I regularly haul a lot of crazy stuff on this bike and it saves me a lot on gas. I have even managed to use it instead of my car for Home Depot runs which is pretty cool but I wish it had better brakes. I would also like the battery to last longer."

What a great bike

The RadRover 2 was my first e-bike. I’ve had three others since then. The RadWagon 5 is the best I’ve ridden. The handling is awesome, power is great, and my kids love it. Thanks Rad Power Bikes. You guys rock.
