Look here first to get answers to your questions!
Are e-bikes ridden like regular bikes?
Yes and NO. The Rad Runner is our simplest e-bike with a single pedal gear and 4 pedal assist options for rear wheel power. The other Rad Power bikes and MATE x bikes are like regular bikes with 7 or 8 manual gears, respectively. The Rad Power bikes use thumb and first finger shifting to go up or down. The MATE X uses throttle like rotation for shifting up and down. They are NOT like a regular bike because there is an electric motor in the rear wheel allowing for pedal assistance. The display tells you how much battery energy you are using and how much charge remains in the battery.
The fat tires make road or sand riding more stable. The Rad Power bikes have kevlar tires to protect against the rugged natural challenges of Mani.
How far can I go on one battery charge?
Several variables dictate how far you may ride on one charge:
The 17 Ah batteries have proven to be capable of at least 30 kms in our testing rides. Keep an eye on your ride and return your trip at 50% battery. You can go further with a second battery for additional fees.
How old do I need to be to rent an e-bike?
You must be at least 18 years old. You must follow the driving rules of the road. STOP at all stop signs. Obey traffic lights. Do not ride on side walks.
Do I need special gear to ride an e-bike?
Our bikes are fit with comfy seats, add on suspension seat posts and all grip pedals so you just need a fun attitude. We supply a safety helmet and vest.
Do I need to know how to swim to go on the sailboat, Brizo?
You don't need to swim but your trip will be far more fun as the Laconian Bay waters are inviting for snorkeling or SUPaddleboarding. You will be required to wear a personal floatation device while sailing.
