10 Signs Your Friend Needs an Electric Bike 

Two friends ride electric bikes from Rad Power Bikes amid fall leaves.

Tired of hitting the trail solo? Maybe it’s time to seek out a riding buddy!

There are people all around you who would probably jump at the chance to join you on all of your Rad weekend adventures. It could be someone special, like your spouse or kids. Or maybe it’s a close friend or co-worker. Either way, it’s just a matter of finding them.

Sure, they may not have an electric bike of their own yet, but with the holidays coming up, there’s no better time to give one of our award-winning ebikes as a gift. You can check a name off your shopping list and you’ll get someone to ride with. It’s a win-win!

The only question is: who will you choose?

We’re hoping this list might give you a little inspiration. If you know anybody exhibiting any of these behaviors, then it’s a surefire sign that they’re ready to join the Rad Family.

Check all that apply:

  They've casually asked about your bike. Maybe even less than casually. Maybe they've asked where you bought it, how much it cost, how fast it goes, and whether or not you'd be willing to let them ride it just one more time, please, please, please.

  They have stuff to do! They’re the kind of person who’d love a way to speed through their to-do-list, get to work without breaking a sweat, and haul cargo up even the steepest hills — all while getting some fresh air and exercise.

  They don’t have stuff to do … and they love it! If they’ve exited the rat race and are now focused on enjoying the little things, an electric bike is the simplest way to get out, take a deep breath, and live life to its fullest.

  They’re a hardcore cyclist. After decades of swearing by their traditional bike, they’re realizing that it’s getting slightly harder to make it up those big hills or swing their legs over the saddle. A cool, rugged step-thru model might be exactly what they need to keep getting their miles in.

  They’re absolutely not a hardcore cyclist. In fact, they’re pretty sure the last time they rode a bike they still had braces. No biggie though. Electric bikes make cycling accessible to everyone. They’re so easy to use it's just like … riding a bike.

  They’re an explorer! They’re the type who are always on the move, whether that’s traversing the country from behind the wheel of an RV or zipping around town and checking out trendy new places.

  They can’t get enough of the great outdoors, be it hiking, hunting, camping, or even winter sports. It seems like an electric bike is the only piece of outdoor gear they don't have  … yet.

  They’re all about family. They spend their weekends shuttling the kids around and squeezing in as much quality time as they can with the whole gang. They’d be thrilled to discover an exciting, budget-friendly way to do all that.

  They'd enjoy suddenly finding out that there's a way to cut down on gas, swear-off parking fees, and never have to worry about all those little costs that come with owning a car. Scaling back their carbon footprint is just the icing on the cake.

   They like fun! 'Nuff said. 

Any of that sound familiar? We have in stock electric bikes ready to ship for the holidays. Trust us, your friend will thank you.

Give the Gift of Rad!
