Bottom line
On the RadRover Step-Thru Class 2 electric fatbike, a 750-watt hub-driven motor offers 15% more torque than that of the RadRover 5. In addition, it comes saddled with ridonkulously phat 4” tires, which do slow it down some up steep hills. By way of upgrades, the RadRover 6 Step-Thru is specced with hydraulic brakes by Nutt, who are a new and relatively unknown brand. Testers said that the Step-Thru version is less stiff and smaller than the standard RadRover. An independent throttle delivers a surge of power that saps the battery swiftly but to a point that makes little impact on short-to-medium distance rides. Under real-world tests, one reviewer achieved max ranges anywhere from 28.47 miles in PAS level 5 to 50.49 miles in PAS 1. The RadRover 6 Step-Thru is available in one frame size, recommended for riders 5’2″ to 6’2″ in height.Expert Reviews
