Since its humble beginnings in 2007, Rad Power Bikes has risen to become the leading electric bike brand in North America. Our team of hundreds of designers, engineers, and support specialists are dedicated to delivering exceptional electric bikes to over 450,000 riders. At Rad Power Bikes, our vision is to make transportation more energy-efficient, enjoyable, and accessible for everyone through the power of electric bikes, or as many of our riders affectionately call them, “E Bike Rad” machines.
An electric bike, often referred to as an ebike or e-bike, is fundamentally a traditional bicycle enhanced with a battery-powered motor. This motor provides assistance to riders, making it simpler to conquer steep hills, achieve faster speeds, carry cargo, and travel greater distances without excessive fatigue. This assistance is delivered through features like pedal assist or a throttle, transforming your ride and opening up new possibilities.
Riding an electric bike is intuitive and similar to riding a conventional bicycle. The key difference lies in the option to engage the motor for extra power, either to ease pedaling or to propel the bike forward without pedaling at all.
In North America, electric bikes are categorized into three regulatory classes based on their motor capabilities:
- Class 1: Pedal-assist only, with the motor providing assistance up to 20 mph.
- Class 2: Pedal-assist and throttle-equipped, with motor assistance up to 20 mph.
- Class 3: Pedal-assist only, with motor assistance up to 28 mph.
Rad Power Bikes specializes in Class 2 and Class 3 electric bikes, ensuring a range of options to suit diverse riding preferences. Our e bikes rad are equipped with batteries designed to last for 45-50 miles on a single charge. This range can vary depending on factors such as power usage, terrain, and the combined weight of the rider and any cargo.
How E Bikes Rad Work: Powering Your Ride
The motor of an e bike rad, whether a geared hub or direct drive motor, channels energy from the battery to enhance your pedaling. This system, known as pedal assist, amplifies each pedal stroke, providing extra power and making cycling more efficient and enjoyable. Many Rad Power Bikes models also include a throttle, offering the option to propel the bike forward without pedaling, much like a moped. This feature provides an added boost when needed or allows for effortless cruising.
Electric bikes are designed and manufactured as electric from the outset, ensuring seamless integration of all components. Unlike converting a traditional bike, Rad Power Bikes ebikes come standard with the motor and all necessary electrical components. Therefore, with an e bike rad, there’s no need for aftermarket ebike conversion kits – everything you need is included.
