My Customized 2019 RadRover

Tricked out my 2019 RadRover a bit.  Was looking for a clean, ol'skool look that wouldn't break the bank.  Didn't really swap out very much here, and none of it was expensive.  If you're interested in parts and links, I can share here.

EDIT: Adding the parts list and price I paid at the time, almost all from Amazon.  Prices may be less or more today, Amazon stores always shift in pricing.  But no single thing here is expensive on it's own, and you can buy them piece by piece over time if you don't want to dent your bank account with one all-in purchase.

Wow Kevin! It looks great! Please pose the parts and links. Do you have a Youtube channel by any chance that shows how you modified everything? Bike looks super dope!

Looks awesome, would be curious where you got the tires from.

Thank you!  I don't have a YouTube channel, but maybe I should go ahead and make a video for YouTube as it would probably help.  Will post it here.  I also updated the post with parts and links for everyone interested in doing this or something similar.

EDIT: I did a quick video with an old GoPro Hero for those interested: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h96vh1asn-I
