What’s great about all of the ebikes below is that they are all reasonable weights which will makes them accessible to more people.Ĥ8V10.4ah Reention Eel Pro LG Cells, Smart BMS (499 Wh)Ĩ00w (peak) 500W (sustained) geared motor with 56nm torqueĥ00w (peak) 350W (sustained) geared motor with 40nm torque In addition, the smaller battery of the RadMission is cross-compatible with all of the other ebikes in Rad’s lineup. If you need more range or versatility with the many accessories offered by Rad Power Bikes, then the RadMission is a great option. Note that while the battery is removable, it is only meant to be removed for maintenance or replacement. It is the ultimate stealthy ebike with the integrated battery (albeit small) in the downtube. However, if a single-speed is what you’re looking for, the Roadster V2 is an ultra-light ebike perfect for short trips.

Plus you have the option for a full step-through frame on an ebike that looks less like an ebike compared to any of the Rad Power Bikes models. The Core-5 in my opinion is among the best value ebikes around and I haven’t found anything else at the price-point that compares. Though the $1000 price tag is tempting, I often tell people that if you think you need gears, then you probably do. The Core-5 is a 7-speed and only $100 more. The most important distinction is that the RadMission and Roadster V2 are single-speeds. I’ve highlighted some of the important specs in the table below. First I’ll compare the Ride1Up Core-5, Ride1Up Roadster V2, and the Rad Power Bikes RadMission which all fall into similar price-points. Rad Power Bikes are priced in a similar range from $999 to $1,699. Ride1Up currently offers 5 electric bike models, ranging from $995 to $1,795.

Nonetheless, it is an important distinction for those looking at electric bikes. After all, they are a much smaller company. This is not to say that Ride1Up doesn’t provide excellent customer service. Rad Power Bikes is well known for its customer service and they have an arsenal of employees to serve their customers after purchase. Due to this the company now has over 100 full-time customer service employees, which is pretty impressive.Īnd this scale is not a differentiator to be taken lightly. According to Rad Power Bikes founder and CEO Mike Radenbaugh, demand has increased 300% from mid-2019 to mid-2020. Since then, they have scaled up significantly as ebike sales skyrocketed due to COVID-19. Rad Power Bikes raised an impressive $25 million funding round in early February 2020. But first, it’s important to know the scale of each company. However, if you’re indifferent or want a standard frame then Ride1Up offers some really compelling options at surprising prices. If you’re interested in one of these options then you should check out Rad Power Bikes and go with one of their options such as the RadRunner, RadWagon, RadMini, or even the RadRover. You won’t find a moped-style ebike, a fat tire ebike, a cargo bike, or even a folding ebike on their website. Since I have experience owning electric bikes by both companies I wanted to share my thoughts on Ride1Up vs Rad Power Bikes.Īs you’re looking at Ride1Up you probably have noticed that they offer electric bikes that have frames very similar to that of typical looking bikes. Both companies are among a select few ebike companies which offer the best value. Ride1Up and Rad Power Bikes both have similar business strategies with their ebike offerings in that they strike a balance between price and quality.
