On October 16, 2025, my 12-year-old son, [REDACTED], was riding his Phnholun Seeker 24 e-bike to school at approximately 30 miles per hour when the bike suddenly locked up without warning, causing him to be thrown over the handlebars. A passing driver stopped to assist, and his brotherwho was riding alongsidewitnessed the incident.
