Overview: Rad Power Bikes RadExpand 5

The RadExpand 5 is the latest iteration of the RadMini foldable electric fat bike, which has undergone several improvements since its introduction in 2016. In 2022, the bike was rebranded as the RadExpand 5 and underwent some modifications to make it more affordable, such as the use of a rigid fork instead of a suspension fork, a basic LED display without a USB charge port, and a step-thru frame style. Despite these changes, the bike retains its 7-speed drivetrain, is available in two frame colors (white or black), and is 6.5lbs lighter than its predecessor. The RadExpand 5 is a well-refined model that has undergone continuous improvement since its inception.
