## Resource

Also, the e-bike spinoff from Rivian, is finally rolling out its first bikes—the TM-B Launch Edition—next week after a rocky delay that pushed back delivery from spring. Priced at $4,500, these bikes were born from a 2022 Rivian side project and got a major boost when Jony Ive’s design firm, LoveFrom, joined early on. In March last year, Also officially became its own company with over $100M in funding. The delay? Blamed on global supply chain chaos and soaring demand for parts, though specifics remain under wraps. Beyond bikes, Also’s big vision includes four-wheel cargo vehicles for Amazon and an autonomous delivery bot for DoorDash. Meanwhile, frustrated customers are either holding out hope—or canceling altogether amid manufacturing’s unpredictable dance.
