A few months later, the 30 maintain error would occur in the middle of the ride and shut down +10 times a ride. It started only at start-up 1-3 times in a row but, wouldn't occur for the rest of the ride (6-30 mile rides). The second Radrover developed a controller issue (30 maintain error) around the 500 mile mark. A thicker box with extra padding would help solve warranty issues as you ship further across the country (WA to NM). I assumed both were shipped at the same time side-by-side because they arrived on the same delivery truck. The second Radrover shipping box was in very good condition. The same Radrover (with shipping damage) battery stopped charging after 200 miles (it would power the bike and discharge properly). New controller under warranty resolved this issue. I had to pause my peddling for 2-4 seconds before it would restart the motor. I later developed and issue on the same RR with the shipping damage with the controller hitting the power cut-off and watts show 000 and the power wouldn't re-engage when you mph slow down below the cut off speed. minor stuff like re-torquing nuts/bolts/screws, adjusting brakes, adjusting derailleur (constantly), and tightening spokes Only a replacement crank under warranty worked. damage to pedal crank and it fell off in the first 10 miles. bent rear derailleur causing the chain to rub the rear tire in 3 lower gears (bent back in alignment) First issue I've had was related to shipping and one of the Rovers with minor damage like: I have two 2016 Radrovers since Sept/2016 with about 1000 miles each. I placed a few screw bolts on the bottom foot to help ease wear on the plastic. Mine tends to show wear on the bottom end. What a pain).Įvery month or so, depending on how often your ride, inspect the bottom of your kick stand. ![]() The other had rust on non-treated bolts (especially the controller bolts. Both rovers had brake levers tilted too high up.įew days after rain or beach - inspect all bolts and overall bike for rust. Tilt brake levers down a tad to put less strain on the wrists by not having to twist your wrist down/fingers up just to clear the brake levers to get access. I found using a softer brake pad on the rear cuts down on excessive heavy braking thus leaving a more desired tread wear (less micro-skidding). This is most likely due to 20+ mph and city street braking of a 60 lb bike + rider/gear (So trying to stop around 225-300 lbs?) Brakes need lots of adjustments to maintain tightness.
