The Weekly Recharge from Electric Bike Report

E-cells Goes Out Of Business? And Our Very Favorite Electric Bike? TWR Ep 29


Listen Later

This week, some of our biggest news stories are the closure of E-Cells and the release of a refreshed line of RadRunner utility e-bikes from Rad Power Bikes. 

Additionally, we welcome the month of May, since it’s officially National Bike Month! We encourage all riders to get outside and participate in events in their local area.

We highlight a nearby e-bike-friendly trail we hope to enjoy called the River Mountains Loop Trail, a paved 35-mile path just outside of Las Vegas, Nevada. 

As always, we respond to a variety of questions and comments from our audience. Topics include e-bike sizing, recommendations for a long-tail cargo e-bike for a new parent of twins, e-bikes capable of pulling trailers, and regenerative braking. 

See the full episode for all the juicy details!
