Today a local man whose family has one Rad bike and whose other bicycles are, to his great satisfaction, Tern bikes, brought this Rad news to our attention. He’s bummed they don’t have ALL Terns. https://www.bicycleretailer.com/industry-news/2026/05/12/woman-files-wrongful-death-suit-against-rad-power-bikes-after-fire-kills

That Rad news is another reason we’re grateful that two extraordinary bike industry leaders — Larry Pizzi and Dale Aguas — steered us in the right direction. Years ago Larry told us about Bosch batteries; and in 2024, Dale of @ternbicycles (which use Bosch batteries) pointed us to a #TernBicycles model very well suited to our needs, the #TernNBD. #Monterey Bay #LocalBikeShop Current eBikes assembled our Tern NBD P8i, and also provides 24 months of unlimited Standard Tune-ups + ongoing support and care.

We’re so glad to have the quality of Bosch and Tern, and also very happy with Current’s service. https://sfba.social/@bikemonterey/116644390356044137

Peloton fined $19 million in fatal treadmill accident

Peloton has agreed to pay a $19 million fine for failing to alert federal safety regulators to problems with its treadmills that were tied to the death of a 6-year-old and at least a dozen injuries, officials said Thursday. It’s among the largest civil penalties in the Consumer Product Safety Commission’s history.
