Rivian Launches ALSO E-Bike | Forward-Folding Cargo Bike | RadWagon 5 vs Globe Haul LT
In this week’s episode of The Weekly Recharge, we cover one of the biggest weeks in e-bike news yet:
⚡ Rivian officially launches ALSO, its modular e-bike spinoff brand featuring the futuristic TM-B — a dual-suspension, 180 Nm torque machine with touchscreen controls, GPS tracking, regenerative braking, and even a helmet with built-in speakers.
🚴 Folding Bike Revolution: Meet the Fold E-Fold, a front-loading cargo bike that folds forward instead of sideways — one of the most unique engineering designs we’ve ever seen.
📦 Cargo Bike Showdown: We compare two of the most popular heavy-haulers — RadWagon 5 vs Globe Haul LT — to see which delivers better performance, range, and real-world practicality.
