Emailing customer service was a breeze, and the problem was resolved within a couple hours.
Horrible service and products

Company has false advertisements. Does Not Honor any of the Warranty and/or guarantee.Have structural damage and defective electrical equipment.
Bike frame and most parts are all from China. And apparently due to covid all bike have to go into a quarantine. My last order was delayed then eventually canceled by the merchant because I called to inquire why the item in stock hasn't been sent 4 weeks after payment and was told it was due to Covid. I questioned how a bike and parts could give a forklift Covid.
Overall I highly recommend a more professional company with good customer repor.read more

I am quite sure Rad Power Bikes used to be a top-notch company. As we all know, though,as companies go from "i have a passionate idea i want to try" to "we're huge!" that doesn't always stay that way.
I am afraid I have a hunch this is what is happening with Rad Power Bikes.
The bikes themselves are like german cars. When they work they are a joy. Can tell why they are a notch above. In my case (purchase mid-2020), it was just keeping the bike working.
The assembly was not easy. Mis-fitting cheaper allen wrenches were inadequate. Bolts were getting resistance nearly immediately and impossible to screw in all the way for many of the bolts. A pedal slid off revealing chewed internal threads within a handful of rides. My ex-mechanic roomie at the time suspected that the internal threading was skewed slightly most likely due to heat exposure during welding causing our issues with the bolts (and way too much loctite on each bolt).
Motor noises showed up soon after that with Rad Bike's own recommended Velofix mobile mechanics suggesting there may be loose magnets in the motor or suspecting it (turned out to be tire spoke tuning).
I came to not trust the bike and inquired about a return. Due to covid i did not get any response whatsoever for 2+ weeks until I re-inquired again only to be met with the response:
"we apologize for the extended delays. Please be understanding of our limited availability due to covid..."
(literally next sentence)
"we are not able to accomodate a return/refund at this time because it's been past the 14 day return limit"
So in other words, because they wanted "my understanding" that they could not respond in a timely fashion due to covid, they were not willing to offer me a return as it took them longer than 14 days to respond. (Mind you my original request to return was within the 14 day limit).
Emails became contentious and unconstructive in pointing the above out- to the point they started ignoring.
I reiterate that I have zero doubt Rad Power Bikes used to be top notch. it is clear (compared to the replacement bike I bought as a result of the above) that if quality control/manufacturing remained at a high level- their bike actually rides superior. But the immense growth, trying to cash in on that growth, and most likely not growingn themselves to support that growth first- is biting them now.
To their defense- it is the same syndrome many companies go through who become successful then spiral to their death.
I can not recommend a Rad Bike for these reasons, and this experience.read more

They advertise next day shipping and our bikes did not ship as committed and we have no word from the company.No updates, no delivery news, no details. Disappointing to say the least.read more
