The SP5+ is considered a fitness-focused electric bike with an aluminum frame, carbon fork, one-piece aluminum stem/bar, and aluminum wheels. The frame houses a Branta-branded XDS Mid-Drive X800 motor with 250-watt maximum continuous rated power, and 400 watt peak power, and 85Nm of torque.

Waymo had been testing eight vehicles with trained safety specialists on board in Downtown Brooklyn and south of 112th Street in Manhattan since last year. The company has not reported any collisions involving the vehicles during the testing period.

Out of the company's first 80,000 deliveries the bots finished on campus, about 1,600 involved incidents of vandalism. At a cost of $2,500 per Kiwibot, the damage adds up quick.

Cyclist Jake Missen branded the redesigned stretch of Bedford Avenue 'an absolute warzone,' emphasizing the dangers cyclists now face as they navigate between parked cars and fast-moving traffic.

"This project is symbolic of what we've done over the last 12 years, reshaping the streets and the city," Christophe Najovski, the city's deputy mayor in charge of green spaces, stated during the opening ceremony.

"Car-Free Earth Day is a reminder that we only have one planet-and that our streets play a critical role in our fight against climate change," said NYC DOT Commissioner Mike Flynn in an official statement.

Bike Share Toronto had a 40-per-cent increase in individual riders in 2025 compared to 2024, according to its annual operating plan, which was presented to the Toronto Parking Authority board of directors on Wednesday. The program also saw a 10-per-cent increase in total rides taken, with a total of 7.8 million trips last year.

A speed limiter is a built-in system that determines the maximum speed at which an electric bike's motor will continue to assist the rider. Once the bike reaches a certain speed, the motor gradually reduces power or stops assisting altogether. This system is controlled by the bike's controller, the small onboard computer that manages the motor, battery, and sensors.

Rad Power Bikes, a buzzy electric bike company that raised nearly $330 million in venture capital, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in December. The company had struggled for months prior to its bankruptcy filing, and had warned employees it might have to shut down without new capital.

The bill, S4834/ A6235, requires cyclists to register any class of electric bicycle with New Jersey's Motor Vehicle Commission - the Garden State's version of the DMV - and obtain liability insurance for class 2 electric bicycles. The legislation's smooth passage through Trenton drew alarm from cycling advocates, who successfully lobbied against an even more backwards version of the legislation that would have applied its requirements to bikeshare networks.

It adapts in seconds without any tools to comfortably fit riders of varying heights thanks to its low-entry frame, quick-release seat post, and height-adjustable handlebar. It also takes up less space than an ordinary bike with its 20-inch wheels, folding pedals, and a handlebar that twists to create a slim, wall-hugging profile that goes flat inside a car or train.
