Depending on when your ebike was manufactured you may receive a front wheel with a bolt-on axle. All models come with a quick release skewer to secure the fork protector plate during shipping, IF you have a bolt-on axle this will not be required for assembly. This video will walk you through how to identify what type of axle you have if you are unsure and how to properly install your front wheel. kzread.info/dash/bejne/eJylmahxgM2YiNY.html

Don’t fully tighten or torque the handlebar clamps until fully assembled. Then sit on the bike in your normal riding position, make adjustments, and fully torque everything. If you don’t have a torque wrench, just tighten all fasteners the best you can.

Thanks man!

Just received mine in 2 days from ordering. Came UPS Seattle. Not my first or 10 th bike. Very high quality. They are very upfront about it being manufactured in China, to their specs and design. Like many American companies including the phone many of us carry

Great video. I needed to add a washer on the front tire assembly on the brake assembly side due to rubbing.

To me, this information helped with assembly on other brands . Like having mechanics 101 teaching, necessary in understanding about tools, and physics in general .

Video does a good job of explaining the basics, you have to use a bit of common sense but the steps are clearly explained. Bike is awesome!

Awesome video!!!!! I could have used it last week but it confirms that we did everything right to assemble my wife's new bike. Thanks!!!!

I just received my order for a RadRover 6 Plus that was on-sale for $1399. Great deal but when I opened the box it was missing the keys and the box with the head light, pedals, charger, instructions, hardware, and tool box. It took a long time to open up an on-line chat and once it was available, a spent a long time in the queue to chat with someone. They had to break down the missing parts into 2 orders and I have only received an email for one of them so far. I hope I get everything I need to assemble the bike. This is the second RadRover I bought, the first one was 3 years ago and all went well with it, this experience I'm not too pleased but only time will tell if this gets resolved. I'll keep you posted.

I just talked to rad power, they said they are no longer using the front wheel quick disconnect and to discard the one it comes with and bolt the front wheel directly to the forks. That’s why our wheels are different than the video, they haven’t updated the video or manual yet he said.

I have a Rad rover 6+ is there any way to raise the handlebar stem?

Helpful video. I wish they would have spent a little time on the battery and the electronic functions of the bike.

HI! What are the dimensions of the box you ship the bike in?

Do you need a special pedal wrench or can you get away with what is in the tool bag?

Tighten all bolts to 6Nm was a really sloppy direction and led to me snapping the fender clamp…

¿what's the size (measures) and weight?

Excellent video - but it convinced ME to take my RadRover Plus to a local bike shop for assembly! It is on the "anyone can do it" end of the difficulty scale, but if you don't have a bicycle torque wrench and hex bits, you can't torque to spec. And even if you buy a torque wrench and hex bits, how do you torque the pedals to spec? I realized that although I could do most of the steps in the video, there was enough that I doubted that it was worth it "pay the man""!

@@auturgicflosculator2183 Just for future readers, most pedals have a hex slot on the end you screw into the crank. The crank has a hole straight through it so you can come in with an allen wrench from the other side to tighten it down if you don't have a pedal wrench handy and you can torque it that way. I personally think torquing a pedal is silly but I have seen someone use a big breaker bar to put one on and tore the threads out.

What size are the Radrover 6 plus rear fender mount screws? My screw is stripped on the head and won't tighten all the way. Fender thus wobbles and is noisy over bumps..

They need to be tightened pretty good. 35nm is a lot of force. It is worse if they are not tight enough and cause the inside threads to wear. Tighten if pretty hard but not a competition lifter kinda tight and you should be good

Put it together myself with all adjustments and it took about 2 hours. OHHH the gear shifting is fucked but i expected that. Gonna attempt it myself. Fingers crossed

I’ve put my brakes round the right way now, but I’m not sure if it’s okay with hydraulic brakes because the reservoir is upside down🧐🙃

just went thru the whole 2 hours , no make that 4 cause I went real slow making sure to follow everything exactly and put on a front rack (and yes it could be done in an hour easy)the second time but went to turn on battery and nothing, no instruction about that little f up. And while I am at it shipping was a pathetic insult.

I bought these bikes last November and it has been a total nightmare. Customer service has been responsive in the fact that they have given me a couple of laundry lists of things to do in order to fix the problem I have (bike won't power up), none of which have worked. They have sent me a couple of parts to swap out but that hasn't fixed it either. I know it's a product issue and not an assembly matter. I took the bike in the box to my local bike shop for assembly since I didn't want any issues and thought a pro would be the best way to go. I purchased 2 of these bikes and although one has worked perfectly, one hasn't been able to be fixed. Over three months in and I have yet to be able to ride this thing. Very disappointed! I purchased these bikes and the Hollywood rack for my motorhome to use while on vacation so we wouldn't have to have a car. That would have been a good plan had it worked.

This is considered easy assembly?

you know, I think they throw the "torque wrench" and "10 Newtons" just to discourage self-assembly, or maybe just to make the lawyers happy. Of course, it is advisable to have a pro look over your work, but it shouldn't be so hard to tell if your work with a regular wrench is tight enough.

I would like to see a video of a 250W bike hill climbing. My current bike is a Freego 250W and I have to have full throttle and peddle flat out to get up Devon hills. I am waiting a response from Rad on my queries.
