ebii Series E-Bikes: A Minimalist Evolution with ebii-M

Acer Gadget adds to the ebii e-bike series with the launch of ebii-M, showcasing its signature minimalist, white-finish frame design. The new ebii-M is equipped with a Bosch Performance Line SX lightweight and efficient e-bike system, four riding modes, and a maximum range of 86 km delivering up to 250 W of power output. Featuring a Bosch Purion 200 OLED display, the ebii-M shows essential information for daily commutes and extended rides.

Weighing just 19 kg, it incorporates modular front and rear racks, offering added convenience and functionality for inner-city riders. Additionally, ebii-M is compatible with the Apple Find My network, enhancing security and enabling users to locate their bicycles via the Apple Find My app.

Building on the success of the original ebii, which has received accolades including the 2023 TIME Magazine’s Best Inventions, the 2024 iF Design Awards, and the Good Design Award 2023, the ebii-M further enhances riding experience and practicality while maintaining its minimalist design philosophy.

Fat-Tire E-Bike Innovation: The Multi-Purpose Predator eRanger

The all-new Predator eRanger e-bike is built for urban exploration and versatile riding, featuring a retro motorcycle-style frame combined with three power-assist modes and a Shimano 7-speed gear system for enhanced power and control, and allows for less work when pedaling. The eRanger also boasts a dual suspension system with external compression adjustments that can adapt to various terrains for improved comfort and stability even on rough trails.

As the multi-purpose fat-tire e-bike market continues to grow, Predator eNomad-R has gained strong market recognition with its square-tube frame, dual front suspension, and expandable cargo racks.

The Predator eNomad-R is currently available in the US Market, starting at USD 2,999, and the Predator eRanger is available in EMEA in September, starting at EUR 1,499.

Additionally, custom LED ambient lighting enhances safety and visibility during nighttime travel.

Designed for lightweight navigation and agility, the Predator Storm e-scooter features a front-fork suspension system and 10-inch tubeless tires, ensuring smooth and worry-free riding as these are made to be puncture-resistant. While it shares the same 500 W rear-drive motor and 23% incline capability as the Predator Thunder, its lighter frame makes it easier to steer and ideal for short-distance commutes. It also offers a 60 km battery range for worry-free riding.

LEAP Group Relaunches HumanView, a Growth Intelligence System Built to Explain Why Customers Behave the Way They Do

Reimagined from the ground up, HumanView pairs statistical modeling with expert analysts to turn millions of real-world customer signals into business decisions

LOUISVILLE, Ky., Oct. 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — LEAP Group today announced the relaunch of HumanView, its growth intelligence service. The new version has been rebuilt from the ground up and now has a dedicated home at leapgroupnetwork.com/humanview.

HumanView analyzes what customers say and do across social platforms, e-commerce sites, review platforms, search behavior and user-generated content, including signals from Reddit, TikTok, YouTube, Meta, Amazon and Walmart+ that general AI tools cannot always access. Because the data reflects unprompted, real-world behavior, it avoids the response bias built into surveys and focus groups.

The service works in three layers. HumanView captures signals at scale, decodes millions of records through validated statistical models such as regression, correlation and clustering, and then relies on experienced analysts to interpret the patterns. Clients receive clear, human-validated insights instead of another dashboard.

“Machines find the patterns. Humans find the point,” said Alan Gilleo, CEO at LEAP Group. “The first version of HumanView showed us how much customers reveal when nobody is asking them questions. This version is built to explain why they act the way they do, and to put those answers in front of everyone making decisions, from product to service to marketing.”

HumanView focuses on three areas:

Growth Intelligence: customer motivations and how people perceive a brand and its competitors

Market and Category Intelligence: product pain points, service friction, unmet needs and competitive gaps

Audience Intelligence: new segments, positioning opportunities and gaps in the market

Every model is designed and validated by data scientists and benchmarked before it informs a recommendation.

About LEAP Group
LEAP Group is a boutique marketing agency holding company with offices in Louisville, Indianapolis, Cincinnati and Chicago. Guided by the belief that brands should “Market Less. Matter More.,” LEAP gives clients access to specialized experts across its entire network. Learn more at leapgroupnetwork.com.

STEPHEN A. SMITH ADDRESSES WHITE HOUSE DINNER ATTENDANCE, REAFFIRMS COMMITMENT TO HBCUs AND PROTECTING CORPORATE INVESTMENT IN BLACK EDUCATION

NEW YORK, Oct. 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Stephen A. Smith, media mogul, New York Times bestselling author, and proud 1991 graduate of Winston-Salem State University, is addressing the public discussion surrounding his decision to attend a White House dinner with President Donald Trump, emphasizing his commitment to the long-term financial stability of Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs).

For Smith, the decision was rooted in a commitment to institutions that have educated generations of Black leaders, professionals, entrepreneurs, and public servants.

“I will always advocate for HBCUs and the students whose futures depend on them,” Smith said. “My reason for attending the White House dinner was to discuss the challenges these institutions face in securing long-term funding and to make the case that corporate America must continue to invest in them.”

Smith acknowledged federal support through the FUTURE Act while expressing concern that political tensions surrounding diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) could discourage private companies from supporting HBCUs. He maintains that these institutions deserve sustained corporate partnerships, philanthropic contributions, and public investment.

“If we truly believe in free-market capitalism, businesses should be able to support educational institutions and charitable causes without fear of criticism or repercussions,” Smith said. “HBCUs have made extraordinary contributions to this country. They deserve sustained public and private investment.”

Ashley Christopher, Esq., Founder and CEO of the HBCU Week Foundation, recognized Smith’s advocacy and decision to engage with the administration.

“Stephen A. Smith has been a powerful advocate for HBCUs, using his platform and influence to shine a national spotlight on our institutions,” expressed Christopher, “His continued support of HBCU Week helps advance our mission of connecting students with life-changing educational opportunities, and we are proud to have him as our ambassador.”

Since Smith became an HBCU Week Ambassador in 2019, the initiative has facilitated more than 15,000 on-the-spot college acceptances and raised and awarded more than $150 million in scholarships, according to the HBCU Week Foundation.

As public discussion continues, Smith is emphasizing the importance of ensuring HBCUs have the resources and partnerships needed to educate future generations and expand opportunities for students.
