👇 THIS WEEK’S TOP STORIES
• The CPSC issues a public warning about certain Rad Power Bikes batteries — and Rad strongly disputes the agency’s claims. We break down what the warning actually says, what’s missing, and Rad’s full response.
• Aventon announces its 2026 European expansion, launching a dedicated Germany operation, new EU-specific e-bikes, and an all-new tech platform including ACU connectivity, GPS tracking, and automatic shifting.
• Aventon also partners with Upway to launch a dealer-based e-bike trade-in program with a $200 bonus credit during the rollout.
• Salsa releases two updated Confluence gravel e-bikes plus a teaser for the new Wanderosa full-suspension drop-bar e-gravel bike coming in January.
• Future Motion (makers of Onewheel) reveal the Antic, a wild self-balancing mini-moto capable of assisted wheelies.
• New reviews, bikes currently in testing, and a deep dive into this week’s top viewer questions and comments.
• This week’s featured trail system: the Caprock Canyons State Park Trailway in Texas — a rugged 64-mile route with wildlife, history, and incredible views.
