Head to our website to get the full list of accessories that we have made along with more links to go with them. www.vanboardbike.com/best-bike-ac... Some of the links are also listed below.

    Suggestion from another KZread rider (not me): When loading the bikes on the rack, grab the rear brake lever and tilt the front tire off the ground and move it into the rack. Then lift the rear tire and insert it. This way, you aren't lifting the entire weight of the bike. Put the first bike into the rear position, then move it into the front position.

    Nice to see another Onewheeler that is into e-bikes. I just oredered my first e-bike. Thousand helmets look great and are also the absolutely most uncomfortable helmets I have used. I have 5 helmets because I am crazy and thousand is the worst (most expensive too).

    The headlight link does not work. I tried side mirrors, too, and I think when you've got a guy's wide shoulders it is hard to get that mirror far enough out to be useful. They make ones that go in the ends. I use a 3 LED Nestling brand headlight which is awesome. It's about as bright as one car headlight and has its own batteries so it does not drain my Ebike's power. I found out after I got my RadCity ST that its too wide to fit Dual Baskets like I used to use when I delivered papers. So I got some 8mm T nuts from amazon and customized an Omaha Steaks cooler on the back. It's basically like having a trunk. People ask me about it all the time. I haul all my groceries with it and have not burned a gallon of gas in almost 20 years.

    Sorry about the headlight link, it still showed the pic on my end for some reason but apparently its not on amazon anymore...this is the closest one I could find to what I used amzn.to/2FSlCNk but it sounds like you already have a great solution! That trunk sounds awesome, great idea especially for a ST bike!

    Hey! Thanks for the video. Not sure if your willing to give me your name and email that is connected to your rad power bike referral link? I didn't see your video till after I purchased my rad mini and reached out to customer services to apply the code I got from your referral link. However, their customer service responded back to me requesting the person's name and email that referred me so they can get their reward as well (I guess they couldn't just apply the code...).
