Also just got my RadRunner1 and looking over the sticky for accessories I found a great set of bags on Amazon, and they match the army green :) Looking into at the very least a suspension seat post as well.



I have the suntour suspension post and a leather Brooks B67 suspension seat that I really like. Looking into some handmade leather panniers on Etsy. I'm leaning into a more vintage look.

RadRunner / RadRunner.. The Possibilities!
October 26, 2020, 08:01:49 PM
First post! I was anxiously waiting for the RadRunner Plus, but delays had me second guessing my choice and wanting a bike ASAP so I cancelled my order for a RR1. I am SO HAPPY I did! I prefer the black color, I don't need the passenger package, my rides up the steepest hills in town have been a breeze so gears would have just been heavy and unnecessary, and with my suspension seat and post installed I don't think I need the suspension fork, although I'll likely end up getting one just because. As for additional accessories I can't decide between the large platform or the large basket for the back. Thankfully they're out of stock and I have time to think it over. I have the front rack installed which does the trick for small trips. Installing accessories has been a pain in the ass, a screw for the center console and one for the rear fender stripped and I had to find help to get them off but they look great now that they're installed, even though they're just plastic. I'm taking my time thinking about what sorts of personal touches I can add to my bike since the weather just turned cold and I won't be riding a ton until spring, but it's fun to imagine. Who else in here has a RR1 or a RR+ and how do you like it? What have you done to make your bike uniquely yours?

I think they should focus on fulfilling current orders before releasing new limited edition models. It's BS. I can paint my own frame.

@android That's awesome, I love Texas. I grew up in Plano in the 90s. I live in the Utah mountains now though. I would've liked getting the Plus in early October, but since it's delayed I'd rather just get the RR1 and upgrade everything myself over the winter, should be a fun project.

Ordered RR+ August 5th. Confirmed October delivery on September 28th. Called again October 12th and was told it would ship late November. Cancelled RR+ immediately. Ordered RR1 October 15th. Will update when it ships.

Did Rad indicate what the deal was with the RR+?? Thanks.

Nope. The person I spoke with didn't offer any info. When she said late November I told her it would be snowing then and I wanted to cancel. She just said ok and processed it immediately.

Finsh Line is good, get wet or dry based on where you're riding. I got both since it's dry most of the year but wet during the ski season.

Have any been delivered recently? I was hoping to have plenty of online content to enjoy after the first batch were sent out but there hasn't been much of anything. Now October is here and I'm expecting mine to ship by the end of the month, it feels like time has slowed down. Who else is waiting for their Plus to ship this month?
