"It was a busy week for e-bike industry news, with several notable product launches and updates. Aventon introduced a new Soltera, while Rad Power Bikes unveiled the latest iteration of the RadWagon... sort of. Beyond bikes, Michelin released new eMTB-specific tires, Ananda announced a refreshed mid-drive lineup with three motors in its M7000 series, and PNW Components issued a recall affecting select pedals."
"Our Take: Rad has been navigating a difficult stretch. The company recently filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy while seeking a buyer, and two additional retail locations closed last week, bringing the total store count down to seven. This RadWagon update was almost certainly in development long before recent headlines, but Rad is seeing it through. Is it a sign of forward motion? Possibly. We hope so, but the timeline for finding a buyer is getting tight."
Aventon launched a new Soltera model. Rad Power Bikes updated the RadWagon lineup by upgrading the RadWagon 4 with a larger 720Wh SafeShield battery, hydraulic Gemma brakes, an updated display with password motor activation, and a new teal frame, pricing the model at $1,799 while keeping RadWagon 4 at $1,299 and RadWagon 5 at $2,399. Michelin introduced eMTB-specific tires. Ananda refreshed its mid-drive M7000 series with three motor options. PNW Components issued a recall affecting select pedals.
