You can throw a kid on the back or your best friend as you rip down to the mall. When considering whether the RadRunner 3 Plus is a cargo monster or an around town cruiser, the best answer might simply be yes. It doesn’t care and neither does the RadRunner 3 Plus, making it the ideal vehicle replacement, just without all those nasty emissions.
Rad runner plus review full#
Whether you’re driving solo or with a full load of kids in tow. Your car drives the same whether you have groceries in the back or not. The motor is able to offset the additional effort required to pull extra weight which brings the automotive experience into the world of e-bikes. We loaded the RadRunner 3 Plus up with cargo and the new RadTrailer and were surprised at how similar the ride was. With the RadRunner 3 and RadTrailer in tow, you can finally bring your furry friend along on your adventure. This is fantastic for everyday riding around town and though it doesn’t hold up to a full suspension system on trails, it is a noticeable improvement over a hardtail frame with standard tires. The oversized tires also provide a noticeable amount of cushion between the rider and the road. They feature a smooth rolling surface tread on the outside with a checkerboard pattern that serves to provide a solid traction on dirt trails. The large 20″ x 3.3″ Kenda K-Shield tires provide a solid base and make the bike feel planted and solid regardless of the terrain. Riding the RadRunner 3 Plus is a confident experience. This also provides a handy work surface for the miscellaneous parts and tools required. We recommend cutting the front two corners of the box vertically to eliminate the need to lift it out of the box. Move them forward for a more aggressive posture or lean them back for a more comfortable riding position, putting the bars closer to the seat.Īt 75.5 pounds with the battery installed, the RadRunner 3 Plus is a bit of a tank which can make it challenging to get out of the box. The BMX style bars up front swing forward and backwards across a wide arc, making it easy to adjust the front to back position of the handlebars with a very simple adjustment of the stem bolts. An upright riding position is, in our experience, the most natural and makes it possible to pedal for hours on end without discomfort. The riding position of the new RadRunner 3 Plus is nice and upright. In fact, with its removable semi-frame-integrated battery, it’s not hard to imagine this setup being used by bikepackers to adventure further. The iconic locker lives on in the current generation and can be joined by a set of locking hard shell panniers that transform the look of the new RadRunner 3 Plus to look like a touring motorcycle. With the introduction of the RadRunner several years ago, Rad Power Bikes introduced a center console that mounts between the down tube and the seat tube, providing a bit of lockable storage to the bike without drastically increasing its footprint.
