So Rammie... whataya know about the Rad Rover?

It's an electric bicycle. Got a 750kw motor... does about 20-25 mph. Would be good for short trips to the gym and store and stuff. My truck doesn't even get up to temp half the time I use it.

They average around $1,500.

Thought about getting one... ๐Ÿค”

Fishing hat and a military hair cut will have to do...

I balance it out by having a RAM 1500 Hemi.

Well... you franking bass turds made me do it.

About $525 for the package deal conversion kit on Amazon.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00YBWA5VC/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 

Two week delivery for all the parts and a day project to put it on... we'll see where we go from there.

I'll be like Speedy Gonzales rather than Slowpoke Rodriguez on my Jamis Mtn bike.

Side note: I bought it (the bike) a couple years ago for (I think) $120 from an old guy that refurbishes bikes and resells them as a hobby. This spring, I dropped it off at the local bike store for a tune up (replace cables, lube job, dial in the shifters and stuff). The old coot there told me it was a $1500 bike, apparently Jamis is small producer and sort of a famous name for these type of bikes?

I grew up with Schwinn, Huffy, and Trek... never heard of Jamis before (shrug).

My older brother just bought one. He is a bike fanatic and has about 5 bikes anyway. I told him he might as well just get a pair of white shoes and matching belt and move to Florida.

Meh... like I give a Frank what you Frankers think.

If you can't see the benefit in NOT running a V8 truck for short trips 2-3 times a day, I can't help ya.

However, I am looking for a better solution like a golf cart, but they have to be able to climb my driveway. My steep driveway is the reason I eliminated electric bikes. Even if they have the torque, climbing a very steep hill is too much for bicycle wheels.

That engine will be just fine doing short trips! If you want to wear pink yoga pants Iโ€™ll still respect you but donโ€™t go blaming a Hemi.

I want a drift trike. No practical purpose. Just to terrorize the neighborhood

And no, I'm not actually considering paying that unless I wake up one day suddenly capable of chitting money
