then i think if you use bank of america card for 3% back on internet purchases on paypal it would take it down to roughly $620
Community Reviews
The Radster Trail Large stands out as a heavy but polished e bike with strong value at the sale price, especially when the PayPal offer drops it to around $640. It fits riders about 5 foot 7 to 6 foot 4 with a 27 to 35 inch inseam, and the large red frame is the version on sale. The bike is praised for solid components, smooth rides, and easy assembly with good video guidance. Main cautions are its weight, rear hub motor maintenance hassle, final sale status, and ongoing Rad support and battery safety concerns.

Ebike manufacturers need to work to standardize parts and batteries across all ebikes. Even if a manufacturer doesn't go out of business, it can be difficult to get parts, especially if they discontinue a model.
This is the main reason I haven't bought an ebike - I don't want something this bike/expensive that I can't repair in a few years time.
PayPal 4 wouldn't show up in the BB app or via browser on phone
Got on a pc and there it was.
Rad!
If Rad riders are like you it would be worth buying this so just part out. Their local bike shop can buy the controller from me on Ebay for $500 and add another $500 to install and we are all good.
Besides you will pay a good percentage or near the same for a generic China ebike with similar specs and I assume that the build and components of this are better. It must be severely limiting and costly to have to always have somebody do everything for you. It can cause you to lose value and gain that somebody else can get.

Why would we demand it be regulated in some way and change to fit your particular needs. If some manufacturer come out with some better feature or setup people will gravitate to them. Let the market compete and figure it out we do not want them colluding with each other that stifles innovation and keeps prices high.
What you propose is why America is suffering so badly. Before you know it we will have bureaucracy that deals with ebikes and you are only allowed to make things a certain way and by way of a congressman's cousin. That is why cars, houses and many other things are becoming out of reach.
BTW I have and have been riding for three years the low end generic china ebikes. All parts but the frame are generic. Parts from controllers to hubs are all over Amazon and Ebay. I have not needed repairs or parts in that three years and have got my value out of them already on the numerous rides I have taken.
I think you are are letting you fear and timidity control your life to much and it is making you miss the joy you can have. Everything involves risk and maybe some work or expense. If we cannot manage a cheap Ebike how could we ever manage life itself or a house or car?

From what I see all parts are generic and can be replaced. You will not get a similar specs generic china bike for much less with as nice parts. This bike in particular has feature that make it very easy to work on as it has cover that can be opened to feed wires through.
Amazon and Ebay have many ebike parts of all sorts. The poor people are doing what you think does not happen, they are self supporting and fixing their own bikes like they do with their cars, homes and other things. I have no doubt that some China company will make generic parts for Rad stuff. There are companies that rebuild battery packs if need be.

The more I think about this I regret hesitating at all but think I was to late anyway. Really spectacular deal even with the maker going away
I paid $700 each for generic china ebikes some years ago and am not unhappy but watching a video of this one it definitely shows a more polished bike with more features and with nicer, higher end components. Probably could part it out and make $2000 even if you did not want it.
I see rad bikes often in my fb marketplace for 500+ so I figure I can always get parts if I need later on.
