As part of Rad Power’s extended Prime Day promotions running through July 23, which include the ongoing second-ever savings on its new Radster Road Commuter and Radster Trail Off-Road e-bikes, we wanted to shine a spotlight on the continued low pricing on its RadExpand 5 Folding e-bike at $999 shipped. Before June saw the pricing come down this low, it was regularly keeping to its $1,599 full price and only dropping regularly to $1,299 during sales. Of course, since Father’s Day, we’ve been seeing this massive $600 markdown hang on so fans can score it at the best price to date, giving you a solid commuting option and versatile utility companion for errands and such.
One of the main standouts on Rad Power’s RadExpand 5 e-bike is the folding design that saves on storage space when it’s not in use, condensing down to a size of 29 inches (height) by 25 inches (width) by 41 inches (length). It’s been given a 750W brushless geared hub motor alongside a 672Wh battery in order to hit 20 MPH top speeds and support you through four levels of pedal assistance up to 45+ miles on a single charge. There’s also the throttle for an electric cruising option, though this does reduce its overall travel range, but gives you effortless mobility when you don’t want to manually pedal.
This is a tried-and-true legacy model that comes stocked with solid features, especially at this low price. There’s the integrated rear cargo rack that assists you with errands and cargo-carrying needs with a 55-pound limit. You’ll also get visibility at darker hours with the LED headlight, while the integrated taillight allows for more safety with its brake lighting – and both come with auto-on capabilities too. There’s also the 7-speed MicroShift derailleur, fenders to go over both fat tires, a water-resistant wiring harness, and an LED display for at-a-glance information and setting adjustments.
And be sure to check out our original coverage of the full Rad Power Prime Day promotional sale while the deals last through July 23, as there is no telling how long it will be before we see the two new Radster e-bikes get price cuts again. You can also check out the ongoing Prime Day savings within our Prime Day Green Deals hub here, with some newer sales from brands like Tenways and Heybike available to browse in our general Green Deals hub.
