This was a busy week in the world of e-bikes! In Episode 30, we highlight a bunch of big news stories, including the closure of GasGas and Husqvarna, proposed UL certification requirements by the CPSC, and a Kickstarter campaign for a funky elliptical-like saddle. 

We dive into some details about three of the biggest new e-bike releases: the Aventon Aventure 3 and the Lectric XP4, which comes in both a 500W and 750W version. 

Griffin takes us on a tour of a familiar path near his hometown in northern Utah called the Jordan River Parkway Trail System. 

We also respond to a few questions and comments from our audience, with an in-depth comparison between the Aventure 3 and the Heybike Alpha and a shorter look at the similarities between the Velotric Breeze 1 and Discover 2. 

We also discuss questions about sizing/fit and visibility features of the Lectric XP4 and share some thoughts on why riders might choose a premium city bike over one that costs significantly less.
