HADCO cannot guarantee that all residents will be able to use the available eBikes. Participants must meet certain height and weight requirements and be physically able to pedal and steer the eBike safely. Both eBike locations will have electrified tricycles which may help with accessibility. If you’re not sure if you can ride the eBike, you’ll have a chance to test one during the orientation meeting test ride.

First, check the eBike for any obvious issues with battery charge, tire inflation, wheel spin, front and rear lights, or brakes. HADCO eBikes are inspected and maintained on a regular basis, but it’s always good to double-check.
Next, adjust the seat to the right height.
Finally, make sure your helmet is securely fastened before starting your ride.

The Rad Power eTrike speed can be controlled by how fast you pedal and the Pedal Assistance (PAS) level. The higher the PAS level (1-4), the more the electric motor will add speed as you pedal. Speed can also be increased by twisting the throttle on the right-side of the handlebars. Always have one hand on the brake lever when using the throttle. Releasing the throttle or applying the brakes will disengage the throttle. WARNING: Be careful not to accidentally twist the throttle, which can cause sudden acceleration. If you’re not prepared for this acceleration, you can lose control of the bike, which can lead to serious injury or death. |
The RadTrike speed can be controlled by how fast you pedal and the Pedal Assistance (PAS) level. The higher the PAS level (1-5), the more the electric motor will add speed as you pedal. Speed can also be increased by twisting the throttle on the right-side of the handlebars. Always have one hand on the front brake lever when using the throttle. Releasing the throttle or applying the hand brake will disengage the throttle. ** The rear (foot) brakes do NOT disengage the throttle ** WARNING: Be careful not to accidentally twist the throttle, which can cause sudden acceleration. If you’re not prepared for this acceleration, you can lose control of the bike, which can lead to serious injury or death. |

The RadRunner 2 has front and rear brakes which are controlled by brake levers on the handlebars. The left leaver controls the front brakes; the right leaver controls the rear brakes. It is recommended to use both brakes, starting with the rear brakes (right lever), whenever you need to slow down or stop.
|
The RadTrike has two types of brakes: a lever brake on the handle bars and a rear brake on the pedals. You brake by squeezing the front brake and/or applying backward pressure on the rear brakes. For rapid braking, use both front and rear brakes simultaneously. WARNING: Never attempt to stop by putting your feet on the ground. Doing so risks running over your feet with the rear wheels and causing serious injury. |
The battery range depends on how much Pedal Assistance (PAS) and throttle boost is being used. Below are the range estimates for the Lending Library eBike and eTrike.

Yes, both eBike models can be operated without battery power. However, pedaling an eBike is different than pedaling a standard bicycle due to its weight. HADCO recommends ensuring there’s enough battery power to return the eBike to the Lending Library location at the end of your ride time.
Both eBike models have a quick-release lever under the seat to allow for height adjustments. When adjusting the height, you should be able to pedal and stand over the eBike frame comfortably.
It is very important to ensure the quick-release lever is properly secured before starting a ride.
No, HADCO does not currently offer trailers or tag-alongs for the Lending Library eBikes. Please keep in mind that HADCO prohibits transporting another person, including a child, on the eBike. It is for single-rider use only.
Residents may use the eBike anywhere eBikes are legally permitted and may go as far out as the eBike battery and checkout time will allow. Residents should plan their trip in advance to make sure they have enough time and battery power to return the eBike to the eBike station.
Use of eBikes is prohibited on sidewalks and on the freeway. Residents are prohibited from using an eBike for off-roading, racing, trick riding, or in any other way which could damage the eBike, damage personal property, or cause injury.
No, Oregon law prohibits the operation of an eBike on the sidewalk.
Yes, Oregon law allows the operation of an eBike in crosswalks. However, in some cases it may not be safe to do so. Check out the Safety FAQs for more information.
HADCO eBikes can only be picked up and pedaled away from the HADCO eBike station. They cannot be transported to another location.
Per the UTRANS website, eBikes do not fit on the bike racks on the UTRANS bus.
The HADCO eBike comes with an attached locking mechanism that loops through the wheel spokes. It also comes with a locking chain which tethers the eBike to a bike rack or other secure structure. The eBike user must wrap the chain around the bike rack and secure it to the locking mechanism.
If you can bring the eBike back to the HADCO office, please return it and report the issue during the return. However, if the eBike cannot be returned because of an issue, please properly lock and secure the eBike and call the HADCO office.
No, the eBikes do not track this information.
