Rad Power Bikes has announced that all of its electric bikes moving forward will be certified under UL 2859 and UL 2271 standards.
Rad Power Bikes, a Seattle-based electric bike manufacturer, is popular all across the US thanks to its practical and affordable electric bicycles. Among its popular models include the RadCity 5, a practical urban commuter with built-in cargo carrying capabilities, as well as the RadRunner 3, a rugged and capable utility bike that can pretty much go anywhere.
As part of the brand’s commitment to providing safe and dependable electric bicycles, it has announced that all of its bikes, as well as the batteries found in them, will be compliant to UL standards. As we discussed in a previous article, New York City in particular, had mandated that all electric bikes in the city must be compliant to UL standards. For reference, UL, or Underwriter Laboratories, is one of the oldest third-party safety certification authorities in operation.
More specifically, Rad Power Bikes has taken a two-pronged approach when it comes to its UL certification. For starters, all of the company’swill be compliant with the UL 2849, or the “UL Standard for Electrical Systems for eBikes.” Under this certification, all the bike’s electrical components including the electric motor, battery, and charging system are inspected and certified.
