Rad Power Bikes is a leading American electric bicycle company headquartered in Seattle, Washington, and is recognized as North America’s largest e-bike brand. Founded in 2007 by Mike Radenbaugh, who initially built his first e-bike to simplify his commute to high school, the company has grown from a small garage operation converting traditional bikes into electric ones to a major direct-to-consumer manufacturer with over 350,000 sales[1][2][3]. In 2015, Mike joined forces with his childhood friend Ty Collins to relaunch Rad Power Bikes with its first manufactured model, the RadRover electric fat tire bike, marking the start of rapid growth and industry disruption[2][3]. Rad Power Bikes designs and manufactures a range of electric bicycles tailored for diverse riders and uses, including models like RadCity, RadExpand, RadKick, RadRover, RadRunner, Radster, RadWagon, and RadMission[1]. The company emphasizes affordability and versatility, aiming to replace car trips with more accessible and environmentally friendly transportation. Their product development is known for community engagement, such as crowdsourcing the RadRover’s design and popularizing the "RadGrin"—the smile riders experience when trying their bikes[3][5]. The company expanded internationally with a European office in 2017 but refocused exclusively on the North American market in 2023 after economic challenges and layoffs[1]. Rad Power Bikes has raised $329 million in investments and earned several recognitions, including being named one of TIME’s 100 Most Influential Companies and accolades from Fast Company and Inc. magazines in 2021 for innovation and influence[1]. In 2018, Rad Power Bikes set a Guinness World Record for the largest e-bike group ride with 405 participants, reflecting its strong community presence[5]. In terms of safety and compliance, Rad Power Bikes recalled its RadWagon 4 model in 2022 due t
