Pritzker Hageman E-Bike Lawyers Demand Accountability from Defective Part Manufacturer in Aventon Pace 500 E-Bike Lawsuit
MINNEAPOLIS, Oct. 23, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- The e-bike lawyers at the Pritzker Hageman law firm filed a lawsuit (case file number 27-cv-23-14258) for a Minnesota woman who was severely injured while riding a defective Aventon Pace 500 e-bike purchased at Erik's Bike shop. Our client was out on a bike ride with her son when the Pace 500 suddenly and unintentionally accelerated down a hill. The e-bike had motor cut-off switches in the brake handles, manufactured by Tektro of Taiwan, but those brake handles failed to function properly. As a result, the bike crashed, causing life-changing and severe injuries, including a traumatic brain injury.
E-Bike Lawsuit Has Defective Part Manufacturer Running Scared
Pritzker Hageman's e-bike lawsuit alleges that the companies involved in the manufacture and sale of the Aventon Pace 500 (including the e-bike manufacturer, the brake motor cutoff manufacturer, and the retailer that inspected the e-bike and provided instructions for use) knew the bike was dangerous but sold it anyway. After selling defective e-bikes, Aventon changed the Pace 500 owner's manual to add a warning that users should check the brake motor cutoff switches before each ride. Rather than participating in the litigation, Tektro, the manufacturer of the defective brake motor cutoff switches, has used procedural maneuvers to try to delay the lawsuit.
