The folks over at Tern have built a number of bikes and ebikes that enable more people to spend more time on bikes, thanks to the unique functionality they pack under the hood. They brought a fully loaded Tern GSD over for us to run through the paces for a few weeks so naturally, we obliged. We took the GSD out on the town on long commutes, beach rides, hauling the kids around town, and fully-loaded trips to the store. In every circumstance, the GSD performed admirably, even asking for more as our weary legs were increasingly augmented by the battery and mid-frame mounted motor.

We met up with the folks over at Swagtron at their offsite suite at CES to meet with their team to learn more about their new lineup of electric mobility solutions that range all the way from ‘hoverboards’ to small electric scooters to full sized electric bikes. Coming away from the show, they wanted to get us on one of their folding compact electric bikes to run it through the paces in a handful of real world scenarios.
Good news for ebike enthusiasts: the most streamlined 20-inch fat tire electric folding bike in the market is launching its first Indiegogo campaign. This gives bikers an opportunity for a huge early bird discount (65% off!), making it one of the most affordable e-bike options available.

The Innovator’s Dilemma and the current state of the motorcycle and electric bicycle markets makes it clear that the motorcycle brands of tomorrow are the bike brands of today.
Over the last few weeks, I have supremely enjoyed exploring new ways to get around and feel that the new modes of electrified, partially electrified or completely manual zero-emission forms of transportation that are being developed are changing the way our cities will work. I don’t want my kids to take cars to work when they’re my age, even if they are fully autonomous and get you around for pennies on the dollar. It’s so much more fun to get out and try a new mode of transportation to get to work.
If you dream it, you can do it. Do you dream of an ebike with retractable storage right between your … [continued]
