2021 LiveWire ONE First Ride Review: Lightning Strikes ... -
The 2021 LiveWire ONE delivers the same, if not more, fun of its predecessor but at a fraction of the price. Despite falling short on its maximum city range and charge time, it over-delivers in other areas. Best suited for urban commuters and canyon carvers, the ONE's performance, now at a smaller price, makes for a smaller barrier to purchase.

Cake Ösa + First Ride Review -
The review discusses the first ride experience of the author with the CAKE ösa +. The bike had an interesting headlight that could also work as a worklight, but it lacked a clamp at the bottom. It had a fairly stiff seat with limited suspension adjustability. The author's spirited ride ended in a dead battery after 25 miles, leading to a disappointing experience. CAKE offered to replace the charger, explaining the mix-up about the battery size and sending a larger battery for the author to try.

Cake Makka First Ride Review -
The Cake Makka features a distinctive design and comes in a variety of vibrant color options. It's easy to operate, perfect for short daily commutes, and provides a comfortable riding experience. However, the turn signal switch could have better feedback. It gives a feeling of riding a small, cute, and stylish package that almost changes the mood due to its colorful Prism windshields. It has a range of about 33.5 miles, speed up to 30 miles per hour and takes around 2 to 3 hours to charge.
