Even with the holiday season in full swing, e-bike news has not slowed down. This week brought a series of safety alerts and recall developments, along with new movement in the ongoing Rad Power Bikes Chapter 11 proceedings.
Pedego issued a recall on several hundred fat tire electric trikes after multiple reports of frame breakage.
Pacific Cycle also released a safety notice regarding slipping child-seat buckles.
At Rad Power Bikes, Kathi Lentzch has stepped down after taking over as CEO in March. Former CFO Angelina Smith is now stepping into the role to guide the company through its Chapter 11 process.
There is also movement on the future of Electric Bike Company. The brand has been in Chapter 7
bankruptcy since October and its remaining assets are now scheduled for auction in February.
