Failed?
So far I can’t get it to work

much better hill climbing...
the motor gives lots better hill climbing power and acceleration however it is possible to get motor position sensor fault witch i think is due to the motor cable getting hot due to heavy demands of long hills and stop and start . otherwise works very well

Good replacement motor, packing could be...
So far, the motor is running great. My only issue is with the way it was shipped. The box arrived with a large hole in it with the steel shaft protruding. The motor was packed in loose styrofoam pieces which did not hold it securely in the box. Pieces of broken styrofoam found their way into the windings of the motor. It took me awhile to get them cleaned out, I hope I got them all. I was worried about hidden damage but the motor runs good so it appears to have survived the rough shipping trip. The motor shaft should really have caps or something protecting the ends so they cannot push through the sides of the box during shipping.

Radwagon 4 motor...
Easy replacement - the original motor was getting loud and rough after ~7000km - way more power with this new one! Great investment to keep the bike going strong!

Super charging the...
Hi guys already had the 35 amp controller but I like to run in the 700 to 900 w range for the hillier areas here in Nothumberland UK and it was just a matter of time before the original 500w motor got cooked. This upgrade gives me the confidence to run that power when needed a have plenty in reserve if it’s ever needed It’s well worth having the special tools to hand and getting all your ducks in a line before starting the work plenty of videos on the subject to pick the best method to complete. My Radrhino now has the pulling power of a freight train. Well done Area 13.

Increased Top...
Bought this to replace the stock motor on my RadMini. I had previously done the controller upgrade package and wanted a bit more top speed since either the stock Rad motor has a built in limiter or the windings are different. I was able to hit 22-23 on the stock motor. After installing this upgrade motor my top speed is now 27-28. Torque seems to be the same which is expected. Overall very pleased. Make sure you order a new gear cassette because it’s next to impossible to remove the stock one from the rad motor. Also, order one with a smaller 7th gear because you will want that gearing change when your top speed increases. They are cheap, $30 on amazon.
