Talaria

Where to Buy Talaria: Online or in Las Vegas, and What to Check First

Talaria bikes are sold by many sellers, and some listings are modified or gray-market bikes. Here is what to check. This checklist covers what to ask any seller, and what Radical eBikes offers.

Who sells Talaria: how the options compare

The table is a general guide. Ask each seller directly.

Eight questions to ask any seller

1. Are you an authorized dealer for this brand?

Authorized dealers buy from the brand and can usually handle warranty questions. Ask for proof, or check with the brand.

Radical eBikes: Yes, for the brands we carry.

2. Does the bike come with the manufacturer's warranty, and who handles claims?

Terms differ by brand. Ask what is covered, for how long, and who you call if something fails.

Radical eBikes: Yes. The manufacturer's warranty on every bike we carry. Ask us for the terms on your model.

3. Is the exact model, year and version in the listing?

Brands change motors, batteries and parts between years. Make sure the listing matches what you want.

Radical eBikes: Ask us about the exact version before you order.

4. How is it shipped and what happens if it arrives damaged?

Photograph the box and bike before you sign, tell the seller right away and keep the packaging.

Radical eBikes: We offer fast shipping options to your door. Check the bike on arrival and contact us right away about damage.

5. Is it assembled, or do I need to do the setup?

Many bikes arrive partly assembled. Ask what setup is needed and whether you can get help.

Radical eBikes: Ask us what setup your bike needs before delivery.

6. Who repairs it after the sale?

A bike that cannot be serviced locally becomes a problem fast. Ask where you will take it.

Radical eBikes: We do, in Las Vegas, with pickup and delivery at $50 each way.

7. What are your repair prices for common jobs?

A seller who publishes service prices is easier to trust. Ours are listed on this page.

Radical eBikes: They are on this page and our shop services page.

8. Can I reach a real person with questions?

Customer service before and after the sale matters more than most buyers expect.

Radical eBikes: Yes. Contact us before or after you order.

Red flags when buying a bike online

• A price far below every other seller, with no explanation.
• No business address, phone number or way to reach a person.
• Pressure to pay by wire transfer, gift card or a payment app with no protection.
• Vague answers about warranty or no mention of who the manufacturer is.
• Photos that do not match the model, year or version in the listing.
• A refusal to say whether the seller is an authorized dealer.

How the manufacturer's warranty works

A manufacturer's warranty usually covers defects in materials and workmanship for a set period. It usually does not cover normal wear such as tires, pads and chains, crashes, water damage or modifications. Terms differ by brand and model. The manufacturer's warranty on every bike we carry, and we can tell you what applies to the Talaria model you are considering.

Keep your paperwork

• The order confirmation and receipt
• The serial number, usually stamped on the frame
• Photos of the bike and box when it arrives
• Warranty terms and any registration steps
• Records of service

That is what great customer service looks like for a shop that wants to be the place riders buy their Talaria from, whether they live down the street or across the country.

How ordering works

• Pick your model. Our specs guides below list the numbers.
• Contact us with your ZIP code and the model you want.
• We confirm availability and the shipping options for your address.
• Your bike ships to your door. Look it over when it arrives and photograph any damage.

We ship nationwide. Contact us with your ZIP code and the model you want, and we will tell you the shipping details. We offer fast shipping options to your door, and the right option depends on the bike and your address. When the bike arrives, check the box and bike before you sign, photograph any damage and tell us right away. Keep the packaging until you are sure everything is right. Do not ride a bike you are unsure about, and contact us if anything looks wrong.

Set up and first ride

• Unbox with a second person if possible. These bikes are heavy.
• Check axle nuts, linkage and suspension bolts, handlebars and footpegs.
• Inspect the chain or belt, brake lines and wiring for anything that shifted in shipping.
• Check tire pressure and spin the wheels.
• Fully charge the battery on a hard, non-flammable surface.
• Start in the lowest speed or power mode in a safe, legal off-road place.
• Wear a motorcycle-style helmet, gloves, boots and pads from the first ride.

Rules and safety

Nevada defines Class 1, 2 and 3 e-bikes with a 750 watt limit (NRS 484B.017). Higher-power electric dirt bikes are above that, so treat them as off-road motorcycles: check Nevada DMV rules and ride only where off-road vehicles are allowed.

Financing

Financing is available on bikes through Synchrony, Affirm, Klarna, ShopPay and AfterPay. Terms and eligibility depend on the provider and your approval, so we cannot quote numbers here. Contact us and we will tell you which options apply to your order. Financing is available on bikes through Synchrony, Affirm, Klarna, ShopPay and AfterPay.
