<p>A new e-bike is on the way, Citi Bike said in a statement, but for the time being all three companies are replacing e-bikes with classic pedal bikes in their fleets. &#8220;Out of an abundance of caution, we are proactively removing the pedal-assist bikes from service,&#8221; the companies said in respective statements. &#8220;We know this is disappointing to the many people who love the current experience — but reliability and safety come first.&#8221;</p>
<p>Lyft, which recently began trading publicly with a valuation of over $24 billion, <a href="https://www.engadget.com/2018/11/29/lyft-citi-bike-expansion/">acquired</a> Citi Bike, Capital Bikeshare and Ford GoBike parent Motivate in November. At the same time, it announced a deal with NYC to expand Citi Bike through a $100 million investment. The plan sought to triple Motivate&#8217;s required 12,000 bikes to 40,000 within the next five years, and more than double the coverage area to 35 square miles. It also promised a fleet of conventional and pedal-assist e-bikes, and 12 new valet stations.</p>
<p>Citi Bike&#8217;s e-bikes arrived on the streets of New York in August, following the city&#8217;s approval of new rules on electric bicycles. The pedal-assist system on the bikes can reach a maximum speed of about 18 miles per hour, a Lyft spokeswoman told the <em>NYT</em>. Citi Bike had reportedly planned to have 4,000 e-bikes available by June.</p>
