I have been riding my Rad Wagon 4 electric cargo bike for two months and have put over 50 miles on it. In this video, I will be sharing my thoughts and review of the Rad Wagon 4 from a parent’s and dad’s perspective. Note: I am not a professional biker or bike mechanic so I may not be able to speak to all the technical bike lingo but I can tell you what I love about the Rad Wagon and what makes it a great family bike. I’m just a normal dad who loves to get outside and have fun with my kids. I will talk about everything from assembly, charging, range, and more. I'll even let you know how far the Rad Wagon can go on a single charge without pedaling. But first, off let me just say the Rad Wagon 4 is really is RAD!

WHAT I LOVE ABOUT MY RAD WAGON:
I love being able to have 2 kids ride on the back safely with me(additional accessories required, see my setup section below).
It has motivated me to get outside more with my kids as well as get a workout.
5 levels of pedal assist so I can choose to get some help hauling the kids up the hill.
Quick acceleration to help safely cross busier roads.
Thick tires for extra stability and support
Adjustable handlebars(including tilt) and seat to help the bike fit perfectly to you.
Builtin headlight and taillight(with brake indicator) for additional safety and visibility
Amazing Range of 25 – 50 miles of range with pedal assist. Over 25 miles without pedaling(AMAZING right?)
Removable battery for storage and charging
No issue hitting 20 MPH with heavy load (Me at 225lbs, and another 50+lbs of kids on the back) Max Recommended Payload = 350lbs
Lots of accessory options are available from Rad Power Bikes including front and rear cargo storage, child seats, rails, even accessories to transport your pets on the back.
Assembly was relatively easy and all tools were included. Professional assembly options are also available through Rad Power bikes partners.
Price at $1800 is much less expensive than most of the competition
I feel like a RAD dad taking my kids around the neighborhood!

WHAT I DON’T LOVE ABOUT MY RAD WAGON:
Lack of suspension leads to some discomfort when riding on a surface that isn’t smooth.
The standard bike seat is not super comfortable. (Although, is any bike seat really comfy?) You could easily buy a more cushioned bike seat or cover to replace the stock seat if it really bothers you.
The tech nerd side of me wishes there was some sort of bluetooth app connectivy with a mobile phone app so I could get really nerdy and track all of the data.
As you can see from the lists above, I truly do LOVE basically everything about my Rad Wagon. Let’s dive into the details about what makes this bike great.
