I just put a regular handlebar extender on mine and it worked fine...

That looks like just the thing I need.  Where did you get it?

One thing I never thought much about when buying my E-bike is that unlike my 1960 era Schwinn 3 speed, there is no way to raise the handlebar stem.  I'm 6'1 with rotator cuffs that have gone through 70 years of abuse and having the seat above the handlebars is at times not the most pleasant feeling.

I was looking around for a solution and found a review of a Radmission owner who swears by this as a solution.  My questions are has anyone tried this, does it truly fit the radmission, and is it a safe solution (it seems to be.) https://amzn.to/3mmDpQ2

There are other extenders out there but this seems to be very sturdy, stable, and gets mostly high grades from users.  Hope to hear some feedback.

Like others have already said, about all you need is a torque wrench (small, 2-20 NM) and some bike grease won't hurt although I used a half drop of regular old grease from a grease gun.
I searched through Amazon until I found a inexpensive torque wrench:

It's actually a pretty nice tool.   Yeah, it's extra money but it looks good next to my enormous torque wrench.

Oh, and 1 Newton Meter = .74 of a ft lb.

Hi, I got tired of waiting, decided to go to Amazon and found this:

BV Adjustable Rear Mount Bicycle Bike Kickstand for 24" - 29" Mountain Bike/Road Bike/BMX/MTB

https://amzn.to/3munDTm

It's sold by "The BV Store" is fully adjustable and fits my Radmission perfectly.  Oh, and it's $19.99 and free shipping if you have Prime. 
I have to admit that I'm kind of disappointed that about 40% of the accessories are "Out of Stock."  I'm looking for a more comfortable seat right now and have decided that RadBikes isn't going to get them anytime soon.
