Juiced Bikes has new owners. On Monday, March 31, 2025, Lectric eBikes co-founders Levi Conlow and Robby Deziel posted a video on the inactive Juiced Bikes YouTube Channel introducing themselves as employees 1 and 2 of the relaunched company.

Juiced Bikes, one of the earliest e-bike companies in the U. S., was founded in 2009. Juiced was known for building fast, fun ebikes with plenty of torque. Digital Trends reviewed several Juiced models, most recently the Juiced Scorpion X2, a moped-style e-bike noteworthy for its versatility and rider comfort. In October 2024, however, Juiced Bikes was reportedly sold at auction for $1.2 million.

Tempe, Arizona-based Lectric eBikes, founded in 2019, is a relative newcomer but with disruptively low pricing, aggressive technology introductions, and class-leading customer service, Lectric was the best-selling e-bike brand in the U.S. in 2023 and 2024, a leadership position that CEO Conlow says the company intends to continue in 2025.

Wearing Juiced Bikes t-shirts and seated with a white-painted wall and two Juiced Bikes in the background, Deziel and Conlow explained that they were both Juiced Bikes customers.

“We got to know the team, the products over there, and really fell in love with the brand,” Conlow said. “There was a different performance and style to Juiced that drew us in as people in their 20s and just wanted something different, and so we’ve always been a big fan of the performance.

“It’s pretty cool to be here today because we just love the product and what that brand stands for so much it stands for high performance, that quick acceleration, as soon as you talk about a Juiced bike, you know what you’re getting in terms of that and that made me really excited about this opportunity.’

The Juiced Bikes relaunch: what to expect

The Lectric co-founders were the high bidders in a bankruptcy auction last October, according to Deziel, who did not mention a specific bid amount. The deal wasn’t finalized until March 27, 2025, and in the end, no physical assets were included.

Conlow and Deziel purchased “the brand, the name, the intellectual property, the trademarks, the IP in terms of design, and what it doesn’t mean is that we own the inventory.”

So, there are no finished bikes, parts, or supplies and no relationships with manufacturers or suppliers to help previous customers with warranty issues.

The new owners intend to rebuild Juiced Bikes as a separate venture from Lectric eBikes. The new company will require a new infrastructure, which the two know how to do because they did it before with Lectric.

They will develop e-bikes that are true to the original Juiced Bikes’ sense of performance and style and will also include disruptive pricing, aggressive technology implementation, and customer service focus that have made Lectric a huge success.

It will probably take nine to twelve months before the new Juiced Bikes launches the first e-bike, Conlow said. He also acknowledged that there were previous customers who paid for bikes they never received and said that they will be “reaching out to those customers to help resolve that situation in a way that works for them.”

Conlow continued, “We want to take an opportunity to prove to people this is the way Lectric does business, and you know, I hope that our reputation is out there, and you hearing that Robby and Levi are now, you know, heading up Juiced actually makes you excited about the future of Juiced.”

The world’s biggest battery maker just pumped the brakes on solid-state EV hype
CATL chairman Robin Zeng says the technology is still in lab-phase development, with mass-market deployment unlikely before 2030.
Architecture, Building, Shop

Solid-state batteries have been hyped as the technology that will transform electric vehicles, promising higher energy density, faster charging, and improved safety over the lithium-ion cells powering most cars today. But the head of the world's largest battery maker says buyers should not hold their breath.

CATL chairman Dr. Robin Zeng told Caijing Magazine (via CarNewsChina) that large-scale commercialization of solid-state batteries will not be achievable before 2030. The company has set a threshold of 1 million vehicles as the production volume required to justify mass deployment, a figure that remains out of reach for the foreseeable future. When solid-state cells do reach the market, Zeng said initial integration will be limited to premium vehicles priced above 250,000 yuan (roughly $37,000).

Everything new coming to CarPlay in iOS 27
CarPlay's most meaningful update in years is hiding behind the Siri AI headlines.
Car, Transportation, Vehicle

Apple barely talked about CarPlay at its WWDC 2026 keynote, giving most of the spotlight to Siri AI and the broader Apple Intelligence additions in iOS 27. But that doesn't mean CarPlay is a no-show this year.

The Cupertino giant buried most of the CarPlay updates in a developer-only video, and, as it turns out, there's genuinely more here than you would have expected. As a CarPlay user myself, I'd say some of these features are long overdue, while others tag along with the broader iOS 27 redesign.

We just got a hot signal that a Tesla and SpaceX merger could happen, after all
Tesla

For years, the idea of Tesla and SpaceX becoming a single company has lived somewhere between ambitious business theory and Elon Musk fan fiction. The two companies already share DNA, leadership influence, engineering talent, and long-term goals. But every time the topic surfaced, it felt more like an interesting thought experiment than a realistic possibility. Now, one of the most important people at SpaceX has added fresh fuel to the conversation.

Speaking in a recent CNBC interview, SpaceX President and COO Gwynne Shotwell was asked about the possibility of closer ties between Tesla and SpaceX. Her response wasn’t a flat-out denial. In fact, she suggested that bringing the two companies together could make life a little easier for Musk. That may sound like an offhand comment, but coming from Shotwell, it’s noteworthy. She’s been at SpaceX since its earliest days and remains one of the company's most influential executives.
