Our take on the Rad Power Bikes RadCity 5 Plus Step-Thru Electric Bike

The RadCity 5 Plus Step-Thru is a commuter-focused electric bike with a 750W rear hub motor, a 672Wh battery and 27.5-inch wheels. Its step-through aluminum frame makes mounting easy, and hydraulic disc brakes, a suspension fork and built-in lights and fenders make it ready for daily riding. It is heavier and less sporty than lighter commuter e-bikes, but it carries more standard equipment than most rivals at its level. Riders like the upright fit and torque sensor; the main complaints are weight and the cadence feel at higher speeds.

Questions and answers

Is the RadCity 5 Plus Step-Thru good for commuting?
Yes. It comes with lights, fenders and a rear rack, and the upright fit suits daily rides. The main trade-off is its weight if you must carry it upstairs.

The two share the motor, battery and components. The step-through is easier to mount and dismount but flexes more under heavy loads than the high-step frame.

Range depends on assist level, rider weight and terrain. Expect roughly 25 to 45 miles, with less on hilly routes or heavy throttle use.

Yes. It has a twist throttle in addition to five levels of pedal assist, so you can ride without pedaling.
What sizes and colors does it come in?
It is offered in a step-through frame in Charcoal, Glossy White and Tiger Orange. Check the frame size against your inseam before ordering.
Can I add a child seat or cargo?
The rear rack supports common panniers and some child seats, but check the rack's weight limit and the seat's compatibility. The step-through frame is easier to load but flexes more when heavily loaded.
