Has anyone changed out thumb shifter
for an under the bar gear shifter?

My rad city5 step thru came with this shifter, works fine.

Original posting is sold. Now selling Brand New LCD and controller from RadCity for $150

Why would the 25amp controller be so much less efficient?

Sorry, long gone.

Hello,
   Anyone know if the radrover & radcity controllers are the same / identical?
          Thx,
            Steve

I ride my rover 90% pavement and 10% hard packed dirt, no real "offroad". I thought I'd share my experience with tires:
1 - OEM Kenda Juggernaut- not great for pavement. Noisy, rough riding and high rolling resistance on pavement.
2 - My second set of tires were SUNLITE Tires 26X3.5 Bk/Bk Wire Baja (same as Vee tires). I like these tires, they are very quiet, smooth rolling and "very cushiony" at 20 - 25 psi.  What I didn't like
      was they also have high rolling resistance.
3- My current and favorite tires are the  Maxxis Hookworm 26x2.5 . Although designated 2.5, when installed on the Rover OEM rims, they settle in at 3.1 inches. They are very quiet, extremely
     smooth riding, and reasonably cushioning. I initially ran them at 35 PSI, but soon moved to 50psi (rated up to 65psi) and the rolling resistance is very low. I really like these tires.

I've also read good things about 0rigin8, but have no experience with them.

Had a very similar issue with my wifes rad city 3, after all sorts of troubleshooting, it turned out to be a faulty display. Once I replaced the display, my wife said it was like a "new and improved" bike.

I went a different way on my RR5. I swapped out the handlebar for a swept back design, almost identical to the bars on the RadCity. Much more upright and comfortable for me.
