The TQ HPR50 electric motor drive has underpinned some of the lightest, most inconspicuous electric bikes out there. TQ takes the next step forward with the HPR60, which boosts power even higher while putting on only a fraction of a pound.

Bosch calls the new CX-R ebike motor its highest quality drive unit to date, high self-praise from one of the world's largest e-drive suppliers. The new magnesium-housed motor cranks torque and power to the top of the line and adds a new "race" mode.

The Bruzer from Priority Bicycles has been developed with popular YouTuber Ryan Van Duzer and the cycling community to open up bikepacking "to riders who may feel intimidated by either the activity or the price of a quality ride."

Many cyclists are riding blind and risking serious injury, with more than than one in 10 having experienced an accident that they found was due to a structural failure undetected in the bike. Researchers are calling for more stringent testing of bikes.

Like many oddball ideas, the JackRabbit micro ebike began as a crowdfunding project in 2018. The cross between a compact bike and scooter has been growing in power and size ever since, with the new Pro models being the most beastly yet.

With a market flooded with options, it can be daunting finding an electric bike that meets modest demands – like commuting to work and exploring on weekends – that also comes with a modest price tag. This superb number ticks both boxes, and then some.

James Bruton is a serial crazy-contraption inventor, from a Lego longboard to a self-balancing mecanum-wheeled "Screw bike." Now he's done it again with might be the most bizarre, big-red-balled self-balancing electric bike with five motors to power it.

Cycling today can involve taking a lot of tech along for the ride. For the third collaboration, Yashica and I'm Back are aiming to ease your journey with a smart helmet designed for "urban commuters, ebike enthusiasts, and tech-savvy riders."

Folding ebikes make a lot of sense for folks who have to factor in trains or buses for the commute to work. But what if you want to venture farther? Brompton's new G Line models are designed "for the city and beyond."

Sometimes a cyclist needs a big, old basket. Sometimes a big, old basket is the last thing they need. The new Allpacka One ensures they're happy in both cases, riding as a flat rack on regular commutes and fast-folding into a 30-L basket on demand.

Utah startup Boundry's modular bike rack system stretches between the bed rails like a chase rack and holds up to five mountain bikes inside the closed tailgate. It also works with motorbikes and opens bed space for other gear.

Brompton has added a new 12-speed option to models in its range, which employs both an internal geared hub and an external derailleur to offer bikers "more gears and more range while still fitting into our compact solution to life on two wheels."
