Gary Fisher Morelle Bikes to Wrinking a 15-minute Quick E-Billing Pickle on Sea Otter

Gary Fisher’s legendary bicycle innovators re-produce waves, this time in the e-bicycle world. Best known as one of the pioneers of mountain biking, Fisher split with Trek 2022 and has since joined with a battery scientist Kevin Hays to develop a new e-bicker at their company Morelle Bikes.

Although the final specifications are not confirmed, the teasing feature is his lightning batteryIt is allegedly capable of reaching full capacity in just 15 minutes. Hays, earlier product development director in Ionblox, brings expertise in the next generation battery technology. The new bike will use lithium-ion battery-style batteries, which claim to offer 50% higher energy density and rapid charging.

Our Take: What kind of battery technology is behind Morella? Is this progress in the traditional lithium-ion chemistry or could it be an early sign of the integration of batteries in the solid state of the e-bicic market? Either way, Fisher’s return to Bike Innovation is the one to watch. Morelle will make a bicycle debut next month on Sea Otter Classic – expect more details.

Orange County, California, will start conducting new e-bicicles regulations starting in April

Orange County, California, should carry out stricter regulations on e-bicicles starting from April. Some of these changes are aligned with new state laws adopted last fall, including:

These changes aim to resolve the growing concerns for security, as accidents associated with bicycles in Orange County allegedly increased by 500% of 2020, according to the Katrina Foley County Supervisor.

Some cities take additional measures. Cypress, for example, can ban e-bicycle classes 2 and 3 with a sluggish-threesome-in one day issued 37 quotes to drivers violating new local laws. Meanwhile, the City of Orange implemented the pavement speed limit and other new regulations.

Our shots: We are all for security security measures, and many of these steps look reasonable. Accordingly, we still believe that speed regulation should have an advantage over the motor forces – just as it is with cars.

Tern has released a new model of the third generation of its GSD cargo bike

According to the TRN team captain, Joshua Hon“Each aspect of the bicycle is redesigned to function better, from big improvements such as handling when they are very much loaded up to small details such as how much effort it takes to raise the bike on a bracket or as the seating lever handles are easier for small hands. New GSD It’s just better. “

• Upgrades include:
  • Stronger, reinforced box: The GSD now has an aluminum pipe of a larger diameter for improved endurance.
  • Improved stability: Longer inter -air meal and lower gravitational center enhance handling, especially under load.
  • Higher weight capacity: GSD can now endure the maximum gross weight of a vehicle of 463 LBS, tested to meet the German DIN 79010 standards.
  • Upgraded Bosch Smart System: Includes GPS tracking, electronic locks, alarms and ABS braking for increased safety and control.
• New accessories:
  • Folded footpieces
  • Time protection: sun shield and rainy shield
  • Variants include economical P10 with shimano components and top -notch R14 with Rohloff Speedhub and Gates Belt Drive

Prices start at $ 5,000, with availability in Europe and North America starting in May.

Our shots: Great! We adored the tested bikes we tested. They are definitely a premium option, but you get what you pay – and the ability to stand for a compact storage is super cool!
