Torque Sensor

For the first time in Rad’s history, we’ve equipped the RadCity 5 Plus with a torque sensing bottom bracket, for a more intuitive riding experience. This technology combines a precision strain gauge and RPM sensor that detects how hard the rider is pedaling, prompting the geared hub motor to kick-in and take off.

Easy to Remove Semi-Integrated Battery

The Proprietary Semi-Integrated Battery has been designed and engineered in-house for maximum durability and an enhanced user experience. By housing directly into the frame, not only does this battery give your bike a sleeker look, but it’s now easier to pop it in, pop it out, and take with you on the go. It features a user-friendly 10 LED display to keep an eye on your charge and an ergonomic shape with a practical grip for greater portability.

Rear Rack Included

The RadCity 5 Plus comes equipped with a rear rack -- replaceable, instead of welded onto the frame like previous generations. This design allows the rider to mount a child seat or pannier bag with sufficient space between the rear rack and rear fender.

Patent-Pending Rad User Interface System

The intuitive Rad Remote and a bold, custom Rad Display improves operability. The large, practical buttons offer a simplified experience while riding, and the display shows real-time stats, including distance. If you’ve ever lost track of the time while on your bike, this display screen has you covered. It features a clock so you can leave your watch at home.

Durable 27.5"" x 2.0" tires

These all-new 27.5” x 2.0” Rad Custom Pavement Tread tires provide a silent, comfortable, fast rolling and efficient ride. Fitted with an anti-puncture layer of tire liner and a reflective sidewall striping for better visibility on the roads -- these tires are ideal for urban riding. Narrow enough to fit wheel locks for security and to slide into bike racks traditionally seen at train stations or in front of the grocery store. 

Hydraulic Disc Brakes for Great Stopping Power

All-new hydraulic disc brakes provide superior stopping power, respond to a lighter touch, and give you more control over your ride. The ergonomic design reduces rider fatigue and the brake lever can be adjusted to accommodate the size of each rider’s hand.

Custom Geared Hub Motor

The Custom Geared Hub Motor has been fine-tuned by Rad’s electrical engineering team for a greater rider feel. Providing enhanced low-end torque, a more confident ride feel, and greater efficiency that will impress even the most seasoned riders. These are the exact qualities that Rad riders demand from a do-it-all style ebike.
