Why Raptor Rickshaw 4?
Nov
The Raptor Rickshaw 4 retains almost all the proven features and design of the Raptor Rickshaw 3.
However, several updates affect compatibility with optional accessories. To make these changes easier to understand and avoid confusion when selecting accessories, we decided to move from the Raptor Rickshaw 3.2 to the new Raptor Rickshaw 4.
Here is an overview of the key updates and accessory compatibility.
1. Seat Post V2
The Raptor Rickshaw 4 comes with the new Seat Post V2, featuring a 48.3mm OD seat mounting connection, replacing the 38mm OD connection used on the Raptor Rickshaw 3 and earlier versions.
This update also affects the compatibility of several seat accessories. The following accessories have been updated to V2:
Frequently Asked Questions
