Populo's owner Avant Sports now sells e-bikes under the Aventon brand

[Dewey]

From Aventon's Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/aventon/
"The parent company of Aventon is called Avant Sports and owns Aventon, 6KU, and Populo bikes. Populo has not been bought/sold. The Sport V3 is a discontinued item and we are not producing any more of them. In the future we will be focusing our e-bike product development and technology on the Aventon brand."

They are marketing themselves quite a bit.
Looks like very minimal in terms of features. Hope they do well.
