ACCESS Newswire
SEATTLE, WA AND DEERFIELD BEACH, FL / ACCESS Newswire / March 5, 2026 / Life Electric Vehicles Holdings, Inc. (Life EV), a fast-growing electric mobility company led by executives with more than 20 years of industry experience and deep operational expertise in U.S. assembly and supply chain development, today announced that it has completed a court-approved asset acquisition of the Rad Power Bikes brand, intellectual property, inventory, and certain operating assets. Rad Power Bikes is recognized as one of North America's leading e-bike brands.
The transaction establishes Life EV as the owner of the Rad Power Bikes brand and provides a foundation for expanded U.S.-based assembly initiatives, enhanced quality control, and an accelerated pipeline of innovative products. Following the closing, Life EV will continue retail operations under the Rad Power Bikes brand in the United States and plans to expand the retail footprint in select key markets.
Life EV also intends to support Rad riders through post-closing customer programs, including honoring certain warranties and gift cards in accordance with the terms of the asset purchase agreement.
This asset acquisition advances Life EV's broader strategy to expand electric mobility across North America by building a portfolio of EV brands supported by vertically integrated capabilities. Life EV will leverage operational experience developed across its platform, including its experience supporting the Serial 1 premium electric bicycle brand.
Looking Ahead for the Rad Power Bikes Brand
Rad Power Bikes has played a significant role in the growth of the e-bike category and the mission to create alternative modes of transportation. Life EV plans to build on that important foundation with a fresh focus on product innovation, customer experience, and operational improvements to serve the needs of the Rad rider community going forward.
"Rad Power Bikes has helped define the e-bike category in North America with its innovative products and passionate rider community," said Rob Provost, CEO of Life EV. "Respecting and preserving that legacy - its brand, vision, and leadership - is foundational to this acquisition. Together, we will build on that trust and create new opportunities for riders nationwide."
Shared Vision for the Future of Electric Mobility
Rad Power Bikes was founded with a simple but powerful idea: e-bikes should be practical, reliable, and accessible for everyday riders. What began as a solution for commuting to school has grown into a movement redefining how people get around.
"This marks an important new chapter for the Rad Power Bikes brand," said Jim Brown, President of Life EV. "We respect the foundation that has been built and are committed to strengthening operations, enhancing product development, and supporting the rider community for the long term."
Together, the organizations will uphold customer-centric values by delivering high-quality, sustainable electric transportation that prioritizes safety, utility, and innovation, while leveraging the broader Life EV platform, including affiliated manufacturing and supply chain capabilities, to expand access and help drive the future of micromobility.
Building the Future of E-bike Manufacturing in the U.S.
Life EV plans to transition Rad Power Bikes' production to the United States through affiliated manufacturing operations utilizing a Foreign Trade Zone (FTZ) structure on U.S. soil. This integrated manufacturing approach reflects a long-term vision for scalable operations, bringing component sourcing, assembly, quality control, inventory management, and distribution together through the broader Life EV platform.
Components are expected to be sourced directly at the fabrication level from leading global suppliers, enabling higher quality standards, improved pricing, and greater visibility into tariffs and supply chain risk. By aligning these capabilities, Life EV aims to reduce overhead, streamline production, and deliver more consistent, high-quality e-bikes across its portfolio while supporting the growth of domestic manufacturing capabilities.
