A few more videos have been posted in recent weeks. It is a bit more challenging to do videos in winter but I am doing my best to cover topics that I think are valuable for people new to electric bikes. I've also been working on getting some products for reviews. I recently received the Monkeylectric M232R which is a really neat spoke light. Here it is on Amazon if you're curious https://amzn.to/2uC43eS That video should be out within the next week. I'm also hoping to do a review of the RadRover Step-Thru in the next couple of months. Stay tuned and thanks to everyone who has subscribed.

I am working on lining up some more products to review, but here is my latest. The Monkeylectric wheel lights get my stamp of approval and definitely add to the fun factor. They are not inexpensive at around $60 but the quality seems much better than some of the cheap options I've come across. I also liked that the version I reviewed had a rechargeable battery. It was fun to dig into these during winter and get them installed before spring when they'll see more use. Here they are on Amazon: https://amzn.to/37BZNe4

Hi everyone, here are my most recent videos and I have some more videos in the hopper that I'm really excited about. The first video below I discuss the pros/cons of each Rad Power Bikes model. In the second one I review the Thule Yepp Maxi child seat. As always I appreciate those of you who have subscribed to the channel. It truly keeps me motivated in creating more content. Enjoy!

Two more videos to share. In the first I review the 2020 RadRover Step-Thru. For those of you who have never rode a fat tire bike they are tons of fun. The next video I give an up close shot on the accessories sold by Rad Power Bikes.

Which Accessories Should You Buy For your Rad Power Bike?

Beyond my last video on the RadRover Step-Thru I also recorded some first person footage on some really slushy snow. This is probably the worst conditions you can imagine, even for a fat bike. There were parts where the snow was more packed and the fat tires handled very well. I also did a video on the Fremont pannier bags offered by Rad Power Bikes. These are really nice bags and can hold a decent amount but they are also pricey. Enjoy!

A few weeks ago I got my bike ready for spring. The first video below might give you some ideas if you're bored at home (after a bike ride of course) to get your bike looking and functioning like new again. I also recently rebranded my YouTube channel from Rad Owners to Ebike Escape. While I'll continue to cover and support Rad Power Bikes, I wanted my branding to reflect a broader range of ebikes. Nothing is changing with this forum. If you haven't already please consider subscribing to my YouTube channel (over 90% of views are from non-subscribers) and also check out the website www.ebikeescape.com

I'm working on some more videos on accessories and should be checking out some new ebikes as we get into summer.

I have recently been digging into the moto-style ebikes. Obviously Rad Power Bikes has the RadRunner and Super73 which is another popular brand has an entry level model priced at $1,150. In the first video I compare the RadRunner to the Super73-Z1.

I have also been busy either buying accessories I want to review or in some cases reaching out to companies to see if they will send me an accessory to test out. Abus sent me the Bordo Big 6000 Alarm which is my latest video. It is a frame mounted folding lock which has a loud 100 dB alarm. While the price is high, I was really impressed with the quality and I think it is worthy of consideration. Hope you enjoy.

Wish I have known these kind of folding locks with alarm existed - now I got one folding lock and brake disc lock with alarm... Perhaps I will sell both and buy this ABUS... Good review!

Thanks! I was pretty impressed and even better they sell a non 'big' version of the Bordo with an alarm. It's quite a bit cheaper at least on Amazon: https://amzn.to/2KZbYrB

I think the convenience for not having to hassle with a separate alarm is a no brainer for some people.
