This is a great idea, would love to connect with other Ebike owners in the Cincinnati and tri-state area. We also travel and camp quite a bit and will have the bikes with us.

I looked at one very similar to this, I think this is the direction I'll be going eventually. Thanks for the tip!

Got out today on my new RadRunner 1 and thought I'd do a battery test while I was exploring the downtown Cincinnati/Northern KY area.

After around 3.5 hours of riding (with a few breaks and a stop for lunch). I got 29.45 miles from a full battery. This included several steep hills and quite a bit of throttle (I did try to avoid the throttle on the flat areas). I weigh right around 250lbs and I'd guess with the small pack, water bottle, and milk crate strapped to my bike I was probably carrying a bit over 260lbs.

I'm THRILLED with this! It's right where I expected to be and in a flatter area with less throttle use I can probably get a bit more. I especially liked that the last bar on my display started flashing once the battery was close to being depleted. After the flashing started at got another mile or so before the power began to fall of noticeably. I didn't run it until it quit as it was obviously very close but now I know that if I get down to one bar I can most likely limp home on what's left.
Do you mind sharing the details of the small bag you have on the handlebar.

Not at all, it's a small bag made by Bell. I think it was called the stowaway 300. I got it a few years ago on Amazon.

Hello all, I'm Dave from Cincinnati, Ohio. My wife and I are casual (acoustic) cyclists and I am anxiously awaiting my first e-bike. My RadRunner is scheduled for delivery tomorrow and we'll be placing another order for the wife's later in the week.
