    They hadn’t shut down already? Weren’t these the “spokeless” bikes?

    Oh looks like I was thinking of “reevo”

    Shit electric bike makers shuttering sucks.

    This is a bummer. Revel was an independent, domestic builder across multiple cycling disciplines. There is a lot to dislike in the modern cycling industry, but among my weekly ride group, Revel was one of the few “one day” bikes we all had in common.

    This won’t be the last of the independents to fall. We were getting a delicious spread of independent domestic builders after the pandemic boom, but I fear we are going to see another wave of consolidation and M&A. This never goes well for consumers.
