Rad Power Bikes Radster Trail

What the Rad Power Bikes Radster Trail is built for

The Rad Power Bikes Radster Trail is an electric mountain bike for trails and off-road riding.

It has a 750 W hub motor, 100 Nm of torque and a top speed of 28 mph (45 km/h).

It carries a stated range of up to 65 miles (105 km) on a charge. Real-world range is usually lower than the rated figure: it falls with throttle use, hills, cold weather, rider weight and higher assist levels.

The Rad Power Bikes Radster Trail carries up to 370 lb (168 kg) including the rider.

In the United States the Rad Power Bikes Radster Trail sells for $1,999, above the median of $1,299 across 22 electric mountain bikes with a US price, among the premium models.

Where the Rad Power Bikes Radster Trail may be ridden

Rad Power Bikes Radster Trail is sold as Class 3 (pedal assist up to 28 mph) under the three-class system most US states use. Class 3 e-bikes are kept off some bike paths and trails, and several states set a minimum age and require a helmet for them.

In the European Union and the United Kingdom an e-bike counts as a bicycle only within the pedelec limits; as specified, its 750 W motor is above the 250 W limit and its 28 mph (45 km/h) top speed is above the 25 km/h at which assistance must stop. A model above those limits is treated as a moped there, with type approval, registration and insurance, unless the brand sells a version set to the European limits.

Rad Power Bikes Radster Trail safety certification

The brand states that the Rad Power Bikes Radster Trail is certified to UL 2271 and UL 2849.

UL 2271 is the US safety standard for the battery pack of a light electric vehicle.

UL 2849 is the US safety standard for the whole electrical system of an e-bike: battery, charger, motor and controller tested together.

New York City allows only e-bikes certified to UL 2849, with batteries certified to UL 2271, to be sold or rented there; California requires e-bike batteries to meet UL 2849 or EN 15194 from 2026.
