The recent news surrounding Juiced Bikes has understandably caused concern within the e-bike community, particularly among Juiced e-bike owners. The potential liquidation of assets raises questions about the future support for these electric bikes, and the availability of crucial components. Recognizing the predicament this creates for riders who rely on their Juiced e-bikes, Zen Electric Bikes is stepping forward to offer assistance.
I’m Ravi, CEO of Zen Electric Bikes. Like many in the e-bike industry, we’ve been closely following the challenges faced by Juiced Bikes. We believe in the longevity and sustainability of e-bikes, and we understand the frustration and worry that comes when the future of your ride is uncertain. It’s disheartening to think of Juiced e-bikes becoming unusable due to a lack of support. Therefore, Zen Electric Bikes is committed to providing Juiced Bikes owners with access to essential replacement parts, including batteries, motors, and controllers, to keep your e-bikes running smoothly.
My connection to Juiced Bikes goes back many years. I first met Tora Harris, the founder of Juiced Bikes, at Interbike in 2014. Even in his early days selling ODK Cargo bikes, Tora’s passion for e-bikes was evident, mirroring my own enthusiasm as I pursued my PhD. Our shared interest led to collaborations, and I was even involved in connecting him with key retailers like Crazy Lenny’s. Our discussions and shared vision in 2016 contributed to the early concepts of what would become the Cross-Current X Juiced E Bike. Since then, I founded Zen Electric Bikes in Canada, focusing on building a robust supply chain and partnering with leading manufacturers like Bafang, who also supplied motors to Juiced Bikes. This experience positions us to offer reliable, high-quality components to the Juiced Bikes community.

We are prepared to supply UL-2271-certified batteries, genuine Bafang motors, and other vital components like controllers and sensors. Ensuring quality and safety is paramount, which is why we are committed to providing UL-2271 certified batteries.

To make this initiative sustainable and secure supplier cooperation, particularly for certified batteries with product liability, we need to gauge the demand. Your direct inquiries will help us justify the necessary order volumes. We are committed to supporting Juiced e-bike riders through this period of uncertainty. While there are reports of potential acquisitions of Juiced Bikes assets by other companies, which may take time to materialize, Zen Electric Bikes is ready to act now to ensure you can continue to enjoy your juiced e bike.
