Rad Power Bikes Issue: Proprietary Freewheel Removal Tool Needed

Our eBike mechanics walk you thru the issue and the proprietary freewheel removal tool you will need to work on your Rad Power Bike. Subscribe here to view more: [https://www.youtube.com/c/TowerEBikes...] On hub driven Rad Power ebikes, it can be nearly impossible to remove the freewheel off of the rear wheel if it ever needs to be swapped out. There are teeth inside of the freewheel that a tool grabs onto to take it off, similar to most regular freewheels or cassettes. However, the motor cable end is too big, so the hardware for the wheel cannot slide off, and a usual freewheel tool cannot slide over these to remove the freewheel.
