I have 2 Rad City 5 Plus bikes, as a rider of road, mountain, touring and motorcycles, I've been on 2 wheels for over 70,000 miles; one Plus 5 has just under 300 miles in 6 weeks; the step-thru model has just ovr 100 miles. THIS IS MY FIRST E-BIKE. Short and sweet, the ride is hard, I find it unstable on sharper turns with loose debris on the road. I'm 6'2" and will be getting a seat post extensio Bill Bender · Google
