“The Varial represents a new way of thinking about rooftop storage,” said Luke Kuschmeader, Founder and CEO of Küat. “For years, cargo boxes have only opened from one side, forcing people to work around the box instead of the box working for them. The Varial fixes that with its 3-sided access at all times. It’s intuitive, beautiful, feature-packed, and built to handle real travel and adventure.”

Forward-Opening, Three-Sided Access
The Varial’s signature innovation is its unique forward-opening door, which enables loading and unloading from the back, driver side, or passenger side. This design eliminates the need to shuffle around the vehicle, reach awkwardly, or deal with restricted access in parking lots or at trailheads.
Users can also lock or unlock the Varial from either side, reducing hassle and removing the need to use a key every time the box is accessed.

Fast, Set and Forget Mounting System
The Varial’s quick-mount hardware allows users to install or remove the cargo box in seconds. The system is engineered for confidence and simplicity, making it as friendly for family road trips as it is for multi-sport athletes.

Premium Construction, No Exposed Hardware
Built from UV-capped ABS for long-lasting protection and durability, the Varial features a clean exterior design with no exposed rivets or hardware. The result is a sleek, modern silhouette that’s more water-resistant and easy to service over time.

Inside, strategically placed mounting points for tie-down straps keep gear secure and organized, whether traveling across town or cross-country. Gas spring struts deliver a smooth, stable opening and closing experience in any weather.

Formed & Assembled in the USA
Proudly formed and assembled in the United States, the Varial reflects Küat’s commitment to quality craftsmanship and long-term product support.

Built for Real Travel
Created for families, road trippers, skiers and snowboarders, car campers, and year-round adventurers, the Varial provides the additional space families and travelers need, without compromising vehicle comfort or cargo accessibility.

“This box is designed for people who want more time outside and less time wrestling with their gear,” said Aaron Houston, R&D Manager at Küat. “Every detail, from the door geometry to the internal mounting points, is thoughtfully considered. The Varial is built to elevate every type of trip, in every season.”

Public Debut at Sea Otter Classic
Varial will make its official, public debut at the Sea Otter Classic in Monterey, California, where attendees can experience the new system firsthand. Visit booth A77. Additional showcases will take place throughout 2026 and beyond.

Availability
The Varial is expected to ship in October of 2026. Detailed specifications, pricing, product videos, and preorder announcements will be available here.

The B01 is now available on Baumier’s website and through select retailers across Quebec, including in Montreal, Quebec City, and Bromont, with a Toronto rollout planned in the near future.

“After several years of development, trials, and in-house testing, I’m proud to see the B01 come to life and finally share it with cyclists. This project, driven by our team of eight, reflects a distinctive approach rooted in craftsmanship, innovation, and environmental responsibility. Ultimately, Baumier is not trying to reinvent the bicycle, but to rethink our relationship with manufacturing, performance, and time. To us, true performance is something that endures, that respects, and that creates connection,” commented Benjamin du Haÿs, Founder of Baumier.

A Responsible Approach, Grounded in Durability
Designed to stand the test of time and evolve with its rider, the B01 reflects a philosophy where performance and responsibility go hand in hand. Every bike comes with a lifetime warranty and is built with repairability in mind, underscoring Baumier’s commitment to more ethical and sustainable manufacturing practices.

To meet these standards, Baumier developed its own proprietary manufacturing technology, derived from a high-performance process used in the composites industry: Resin Flow Composite (RFC). The result of over eight years of engineering, this process enables an optimal balance of lightness, strength, and zero- waste production, while maintaining the highest performance standards. The B01 frame is constructed from carbon tubes produced using this technology, paired with 3D-printed titanium lugs, creating a structure that is both high-performing, durable, and repairable.

The B01 is available in three configurations, Hors-Catégorie, Lifetime, and Timeless, each offering specific customization options. All models come equipped with Baumier’s in-house wheels, delivering a fully integrated riding experience designed and assembled in the company’s workshops.

Launch Events Across the Country
To celebrate the release of the B01, the Baumier team will travel from city to city by bike, hosting exclusive events where cyclists can discover the model firsthand.

• Montreal – April 10, 5:00–7:00 PM – Siboire Notre-Dame
• Quebec City – Early May, time and location TBC
• Toronto – May 30–31 – Étape 22

These events will give participants the opportunity to experience the B01 in person, meet the Baumier team, and engage with the brand in a welcoming and inspiring environment.

During this time, Kenda expanded internationally and also grew their R&D division which helped them to become more competitive at offering a value product that was also performance driven.

Kenda produces a full line of bicycles tires for all market segments including mountain bikes, e-bikes, road, BMX and for the fast-growing gravel cycling sector.

The company currently offers five models of gravel tires, with the Crusher being hailed as the fastest.

Available in two versions there are five width options including 35c, 40c, 45c and 50c. Their 60 TPI model is built for durability and geared for everyday adventure riding. The Crusher 120 TPI performance driver model is lighter, more supple and designed for speed, making this a great choice for gravel racing.

My Crusher test tires arrived and I went with the 120 TPI model at a 35c width. I purposely bucked the current trend of wider tires by choosing the narrowest tire in their line-up. This allowed me to ride these tires on my current “all-road” bike, which claims it will accept gravel tires up to 35c, and also run them on narrower, old-school, gravel, non-tubeless rims. In both cases the tires were a very easy set-up.

Out on the road, the Crusher tires rolled smooth and fast. Thanks to the uniform, center-rib layout they were firm and quiet. The tires confidently transitioned to packed gravel and nicely managed smaller rocks and roots as well. Larger hits were absorbed compliments of its more compliant sidewall.

The Crusher’s larger outer knobs held firm on loose gravel corners, and provided solid grip on steep, loose gravel climbs. I was even more impressed at how they bit into the large, damp, slick maple leaves which covered parts of the trail allowing me to continue riding at speed.

Living on B.C.’s “wet” coast, deep mud is a common feature on our trail systems. Although the Crushers are more hard-packed oriented, they could easily get by on some less extreme mud sections.

Overall, I was extremely pleased with Kenda’s Crusher gravel tires that would be a great all-rounder for most adventure riders and gravel racers.

Not only did they perform nicely on a variety of terrain, but they fit like a charm on my “all-road” bike and breathed new life into my old-school gravel bike.

With winter now on our doorstep, I plan to leave the Crushers on my “all-road” bike to enhance my adventure possibilities.

The SRP starts at $105 CAD/$73.95 US per tire and for more information please visit here.

Designed to deliver maximum comfort on any type of route — from urban commuting to gravel, from road to light off-road — Raion stands out for its compact, ergonomic T-shape design, ideal for riders who practice multiple disciplines and seek a versatile and stable saddle.

With a length of just 245 mm, the base integrates Prologo’s patented Active Base System, featuring a central cut-out covered by a light layer of padding. This innovative system improves pressure distribution, reduces peak pressure points, and prevents numbness, ensuring balanced and comfortable riding at all times.

Two versions, one goal: maximum comfort
Raion is available in two widths: 135 mm and 145 mm, to perfectly match different rider needs.

The 135 mm version is ideal for those who prefer greater freedom of movement or have a narrower pelvis.

The 145 mm version, with extra padding, offers superior support and optimal weight distribution — the perfect choice for riders who want enhanced comfort on longer rides.

Both versions feature comfort-oriented padding and a unisex shape, suitable for different riding styles and disciplines.

Recycle: sustainability without compromise
Sustainability is a core value of Prologo’s All-Road line, and Raion represents its latest expression.

The saddle is built using a recycled nylon base, a Re-Steel rail, and components such as foam and cover also made from recycled materials. A concrete choice that reduces environmental impact without compromising on quality, durability, or performance.

Even as the entry-level model of the Prologo range, the All-Road line remains faithful to the design, attention to detail, and technical approach that have always distinguished the Italian brand.

A complete range for every adventure
Alongside the new Raion, the All-Road family also includes the Akero R and Akero R PAS saddles (255 x 150 mm), as well as the more comfort-oriented Akero R 160 and Akero R PAS 160 (160 mm width).

The range is completed by the ultralight Feather II grips, made from recycled EVA foam, perfect for MTB racing use.

When I picked it up at Cycle Solutions in Toronto I was immediately impressed by its lightweight and stylish frame. It is the lightest e-bike I have ever ridden and it was easy to maneuver on city streets and a range of trails. At 41 lbs it’s an ideal e-bike for riders who may need to carry it up or down a flight of stairs at home, the office, or to access their storage etc.

The FX+ 7 is powered by a 250-watt TQ HPR50 motor and boasts 50Nm of torque. The motor’s unique harmonic pin-ring technology promises quiet, natural-feeling e-assist up to 32 kph, making for a comfortable and enjoyable ride.

The system is supported by a TQ 360Wh battery that’s integrated into the downtube and can only be removed by a dealer. The battery has a range of 80km/50 miles, and there’s an optional compact 160Wh range extender that mounts in the water bottle cage and allows you to expand your adventures up to 120 km/75 miles.

There are three pedal e-assist modes which are easy to toggle between via a control button on the left side of the handlebar. Walk assist is also included and as you need to depress the button while walking the e-bike it can be a bit awkward. But the FX+ 7 is so light that I found no discernible difference walking it without the walk-assist feature.

A controller with a display screen on the frame allows you to easily toggle between a range of useful riding stats such as your speed, kilometers travelled, and the percentage of power remaining in the battery. This last feature is particularly helpful because it adjusts depending on the e-assist mode being used.

The entire e-system meets the highest standard UL 2849 certification, the leading e-bike safety regulations.

The low-emission aluminum frame features internal cable routing and a mid-step design which is between a step-through and a sloping cross bar frame. The presentation is a stylish e-bike with sporty vibes.

The 10-speed Shimano Cues drivetrain features their new LinkGlide technology for longer lasting durability of the chain, cassette, and chainrings. The front and rear Shimano hydraulic disc brakes provided smooth and reliable stopping power.

Like any new e-bike, it takes a bit of time to get used to. Initially, the natural-feeling pedal assist transitions made me wonder if the level selected had engaged, but following various test rides I could distinguish the subtleties of each level.

I was impressed by how smooth, comfortable and easy the FX+ 7 is to handle on trails, hills and a mix of urban infrastructure. On a few hills I found myself looking for a bit more power, but overall the TQ e-drive system performed well and was whisper quiet.

The Shimano Cues shifting was smooth and responsive and I was surprised at how similar it was to riding my acoustic hybrid bike when not using the e-assist.

The handlebars were well spaced for ease of handling and the Bontrager Verse Comp saddle was very comfortable, even after spending four hours riding.

An important visibility and safety feature is the integrated Spanninga front light that’s made for e-bikes, and the Herrmans rear light – both lights are powered by the battery.

On a fully charged battery I covered 68 km using a mix of e-assist modes while travelling between 13 and 27 km per hour.

Recharging the battery is easy via a charging port located on the downtube. A secure rubber stopper prevents moisture and dust from entering. It takes about 4-5 hours for a complete recharge.

Designed to meet a range of commuting and recreational activities, the FX+ 7 comes equipped with a sturdy MIK-compatible rear rack with a 25kg capacity, and an integrated Quad Lock phone mount on the stem which also charges your smart phone while you ride. This is a very practical detail for those recording their rides and relying on GPS without needing to pack a portable phone charger. A Quad Lock phone case or universal mount is required.

You can also connect the FX+ 7 to the Trek Central app for a variety of e-bike customization options such as turn-by-turn directions and a handy range calculator.

The bike also comes with a solid, adjustable-length kickstand, a water bottle cage as mentioned, but no bell which is the first upgrade I’d make as it’s an important safety feature and legally required in Ontario. Riders should check their local jurisdictions.

The Trek FX+ 7 Midstep is a stylish and versatile urban e-bike that provides comfortable city commuting and recreational riding on a range of multi-use paths and trails. Its lightweight package, premium features, sleek design and maneuverability make it a strong contender in the premium class of urban e-bikes.

The SRP is $5,499.99 and for more information please visit here.

Transportation today looks nothing like it did in the past, yet the systems we rely on haven’t kept up. By 2050, nearly seven billion people are expected to live in cities, pushing already overburdened roadways beyond their limits. At the same time, road transportation remains the largest driver of CO2 emissions, even though 80% of car trips are under 15 miles and half are less than six miles. ALSO is on a mission to bring new forms of small, efficient EVs that give people and businesses exciting alternatives to cars and a clear path toward cleaner, more accessible mobility.

“Our vision is to bring together the latest technology with fun, thoughtful design to create small EVs that inspire people to adopt these more efficient modes,” said Chris Yu, President of ALSO. “This launch has been years in the making and it is just the beginning of a broader platform we are building that we believe will catalyze adoption globally.”

Introducing the TM-B, the Next Generation of Electric Bikes
Today ALSO unveiled its first flagship vehicle: the TM-B, a category redefining electric bike. This vehicle delivers a one-touch, changeable, modular top frame that offers riders a single platform that can adapt to multiple body sizes and applications — from utility and commuting to trail and recreation.

At the heart of the TM-B is DreamRide, ALSO’s in-house drive system that brings software-defined pedaling to life, delivering an effortless and endlessly customizable riding experience. Instead of a direct mechanical connection, DreamRide blends energy regeneration with intuitive motor control to tune every ride to the individual rider’s preference.

“ALSO was created to develop technology and products that challenge existing expectations for what is possible in form factors smaller than a car or truck – I couldn’t be more excited about the potential for ALSO to help drive excitement for new modes of transportation,” said Rivian Founder and CEO RJ Scaringe. “We have built a ground-up technology platform that enables us to deliver rich, personalized experiences that get better over time, through the power of software.”

Features of the TM-B include:
• Vehicle-grade battery technology with state-of-the-art energy density, safety, and USB-C fast charging up to 240 watts.
• Portal digital touchscreen display with navigation, media, calls, and app integration, activated automatically when the rider approaches.
• Integrated security system that locks the battery, wheels, and frame automatically as the rider walks away, with real-time tamper alerts via the ALSO app.
• Configurable drive mode: The TM-B offers a completely software-defined riding experience that is extremely intuitive and easy to use.

Defining the Future of Small EVs
Alongside the TM-B, ALSO is debuting two new TM-Q pedal-assist electric quads that leverage the same technology as the TM-B in a four-wheel form factor. These vehicles will be pedal-assisted and designed for bike lanes, while being able to carry significant loads.

ALSO is unveiling a commercial TM-Q that will launch in 2026 and demonstrates the power and agility of a scalable, data-rich platform tailored to logistics, delivery, and fleet electrification — designed to help businesses of all sizes tackle the challenges of dense operating environments, with a focus on optimizing for throughput, efficiency, and total cost of operations.

Alongside the commercial TM-Q, ALSO is unveiling the consumer TM-Q, designed for families and individuals seeking a safe, compact alternative to cars, with the versatility to handle everyday errands and weekend adventures.

Collaboration with Amazon
ALSO and Amazon are excited to announce a multi-year collaboration on a customized pedal-assist e-cargo quad, with the shared aim to expand Amazon’s micromobility fleet with thousands of quads across Europe and the U.S.

“Amazon already operates more than 70 micromobility hubs in cities across the U.S. and Europe. Micromobility solutions like pedal-assist e-cargo quads allow us to quickly deliver to customers in dense, urban cities, while helping reduce traffic and noise,” said Emily Barber, Director of Amazon’s Global Fleet. “Similar to our Rivian EDV partnership, working with ALSO provides an opportunity to continue to innovate in this space, building on our delivery logistics experience, paired with their advanced technology, safety, and performance features.”

The Next Generation of Helmet Technology
ALSO unveiled its Alpha Wave Helmet, the next generation in helmet safety technology and connectivity. It incorporates Release Layer System (RLS), a technology that offers a step-change in rotational impact protection. The helmet is also equipped with the HighBar System to provide a more secure, one-handed fit; integrated lights to help riders see and be seen; and an integrated audio system with four wind-shielded speakers and two noise-canceling microphones, enabling riders to listen to music or podcasts, take calls, and receive turn-by-turn navigation, all controlled from the TM-B’s Portal and hand-control interface.

Building an End-to-End Micromobility Platform with Global Partner Network
To ensure a premium experience and global accessibility to ALSO’s vehicles, the company is launching with several leading partners to offer a wide range of purchase, delivery, service, and financing options to customers.

ALSO is proud to partner with Rivian to feature its vehicles in an ever-growing number of physical locations so people can experience the TM-B in person for themselves. Later this year, customers will be able to purchase ALSO vehicles through Rivian online and retail stores across the U.S.

ALSO is dedicated to providing service options wherever and whenever customers need. ALSO is partnering with mobile service company Velofix, and will be announcing their full network of retail service locations in early 2026.

ALSO has partnered with Chase Slate to serve as its preferred financing solution. New Chase Slate cardmembers can take advantage of a 0% introductory rate (terms apply), and all Slate cardmembers can take advantage of benefits such as purchase protection, extended warranty on purchases, and more. For additional information, visit Chase.com/Slate.

The TM-B Launch model is available for $4,500 US. Preorders and reservations for ALSO’s TM-B and TM-B Performance models are available today at RideAlso.com, with deliveries expected to begin in spring 2026.
