Leaked Video Frames Reveal Rivian-Backed Also’s Compact E-Bike Ahead of October Reveal

The startup has scheduled an October 22 reveal ahead of an early‑2026 rollout in the US and Europe.

Overview

  • The images were pulled from a behind-the-scenes marketing video by scrubbing frame-by-frame through partially masked footage.
  • Also updated its hosted video to remove the revealing frames and later deleted the clip from social platforms, according to reports.
  • The bike appears to be a compact, pedal-assist commuter with roughly 20-inch wheels, front and rear suspension, integrated lighting, and an optional cargo rack.
  • Key details including whether the battery is removable remain unconfirmed until the formal announcement.
  • Also operates as a Rivian micromobility spinoff chaired by RJ Scaringe with Rivian holding a minority stake, and outside analysis suggests a higher-end price positioning.
