Jim one more tip. If you don't plan on using the folding feature of the bike, you could look at the RadRunner Plus which has a step-through as well and looks a bit more masculine. ;-)

I need the foldable.  A friend of mine has the RadRunner Plus and a RadMini step thru.  I agree the RadRunner Plus looks more manly, but it felt too big and heavy for me (and of course it doesn't fold).  I think I'll get the RadMini Step-thru.  I probably should ride it side-saddle. :)  Thanks for all the help.

The step-through bike is considered a gender-neutral bike. A man or women can ride it. I would recommend the step-through to mount and dismount easier. Keep on truckin sexy!

Lol...at my age I'm gender-neutral anyway! :)  Thanks for all the info.

Thanks sc0pecr33p,

I attached Rad's answer.  Yours was more concise. :)

One other question, if you don't mind.  I'm trying to decide between the two models.  I'm 65 y.o., 5'10", 265 lbs.  Basically, a fairly clumsy old man. :)  Would you recommend that I buy the step thru or would the RadMini be better.  I realize I'm a sexist old man, but when I see step thru, I think girls bike.

RadMini / RadMini 4 vs, RadMini Step-Thru 2

Hi,
I'm wondering if RadMini 4 and the RadMini Step-Thru 2 are essentially the same bike (except for the step-thru)?  In other words do they offer the exact same performance components?
Thanks for your help...Jim
