Service & Repair / Re: Upside Down Motor?

that is exactly my thought as well. I am waiting on a call back from the Rad shop because I think there was a miscommunication on what they mean. Even if the axle was rotated 180 degrees that shouldn't do anything anyway. I will update when I hear from them. I have been using Rad for years in numerous bike shops and have never heard of someone saying this as an issue.

Service & Repair / Upside Down Motor?
August 20, 2024, 05:08:00 PM
Hi There!

I have a bike in a Rad Power bike shop and they are saying it is faulty because the motor was installed upside down. I installed it as it came out of the box pre assembled. I didn't take any of the hardware off/re-arrange it. Has anyone had any issues with an "upside down" motor? Any thoughts or ideas on it would be great.

Cheers

PS: Rad Runner

UPDATE: The frame is toast. The motor was spinning in the frame.

Thanks radding! Ideally I am trying to keep the wheels on to save time with loading. I think I will just have to fabricate my own rack.

So this is kind of strange but I will be transporting a lot of Rad Rovers over the next year or two, sometimes 6 at a time. I have a 2006 sprinter van with plenty of room in the back, but I don't want to have them just laying on top of each other!

Has anyone built out a floor rack system inside of their van for transporting bikes? Or is there any pre-made floor racks out there that might work? Thanks in advance.
