Yes the Rockrider models would sell over here, I'm encouraged they're dipping their toes into the water with Aventon.I've noticed one of their hard-tail MTBs was really nice and cost effective. Brose T motor

Why REI is putting its brand-new Bellevue HQ on the market
The outdoor gear company has laid off staff and needs less space.fortune.com
Not a pretty story.I did a search before I initially posted and saw that they decided to sell their new HQ building, but that isn’t bankruptcy of the company, but an intelligent move to cut costs during the pandemic and many management employees working remotely. I found lots of stories pondering about which retailers might go bankrupt in the near future. I also found a story about a bankruptcy case involving a real estate lease at one of their stores some years ago, but I was never able to find a story about REI going bankrupt sometime in the last five years. I found that there is at least one company with the stock exchange abbreviation of REI, but it isn’t the Recreational Equipment, Inc., that we are discussing here.
Could you please post the link to the bankruptcy story that you found? Thanks.

More Layoffs Announced At REI
Less than 90 days after REI, the outdoor recreation retailer, cut 25 percent of its workforce at its headquarters, hundreds more will be laid off nationwide.www.pymnts.com
In the story that you link, there is no mention of REI filing bankruptcy. The story discusses layoffs at REI, which of course is happening at many companies during the pandemic. Fortunately REI has both a physical store presence, and already had a strong online presence prior to the pandemic, which is working to their advantage as their stores were temporarily closed (now re-opened for some time). The bankruptcy mentioned in the article is a clothing company New York & Co., owned by the parent company RTW Retailwinds, neither of which has anything to do with REI.
I read that story about REI in the summer, thought it a shame as I like the store I've gone to. Thought you'd want to know the info. I haven't read about bankruptcy. I hope ebikes will help them grow. Bankruptcy wouldn't necessarily mean they are out of business.In the story that you link, there is no mention of REI filing bankruptcy.

OFFS! A modicum of effort will get the bankruptcy updates. Google is your friend!In the story that you link, there is no mention of REI filing bankruptcy.

I think my Google-Fu is pretty good, also could not find a definitive article. Wiki makes no mention of a BK either.
Maybe this is like that dress image where only certain people see certain things.![]()
What happened to the common courtesy to members on the EBR forums? ... sadly absent here!
Following along, I think SoCal Dave was courteous. Perhaps Thomas has info we are not privy to...
After a Google search, you need to actually read the story before drawing conclusions from it.
OFFS! Read the story - it takes a modicum of effort.
Nope... way too much sarcasm all around. Time to get back on topic... EBikes!![]()
Check BD... they have a few Shimano mid-drive models available at $1,599 and $1,699.
