Powerhouse E-Bikes Maui Founder Joe Eckstrom Partners with Bandit Electric Bikes to Expand E-Bike Offerings in Hawai'i
For over two decades, Joe Eckstrom has been dedicated to showcasing the beauty of Maui through unique biking adventures. His passion led to the creation of Black Rock Bikes Maui, a e-bike rental company committed to offering exceptional e-bike experiences. With the growing demand of E-Bike rentals on Maui from both tourists and residents, it led to the formation of Black Rock Bikes USA, the first Hawai'i-based E-Bike manufacturing company focused on supplying E-bikes directly to the residents of Hawai'i. With the electric bike industry booming, it lacked a leading brick and mortar retailer focused on the E-Bike market. This problem quickly became an opportunity for Joe Eckstrom, and he diligently established PowerHouse E-Bikes Hawai'i. Its focus was to offer the top E-Bike brands at the lowest prices in addition to offering bike service and repairs that are so desperately needed in many ebike communities. PowerHouse E-Bikes Hawai'i opened its first store in Maui as the exclusive retailer for Bandit Electric Bikes. This new partnership represents a significant milestone in expanding e-bike accessibility throughout the Hawaiian Islands.
'Partnering with Bandit Electric Bikes allows us to bring cutting-edge e-bike technology to our community,' said Joe Eckstrom. 'We're excited to offer riders an unparalleled experience as they explore the stunning landscapes of Hawai'i.'
Bandit Electric Bikes, known for their high-performance and stylish designs, share a commitment to sustainable transportation solutions. This collaboration will introduce a range of Bandit e-bikes to the Hawaiian market, catering to diverse riding preferences and promoting eco-conscious travel.
'We are delighted to join forces with Joe Eckstrom and PowerHouse Bikes,' stated Richard Cao, CEO of Bandit Electric Bikes. 'Their deep-rooted connection to the Hawaiian community and dedication to exceptional service align perfectly with our mission. Together, we aim to revolutionize the way you can experience Hawai'i on two wheels.'
As part of this partnership, PowerHouse E-Bikes Hawai'i has been appointed as the exclusive retailer for Bandit Bikes in the region. Serving Oahu, Maui, Kauai, and the Big Island, PowerHouse E-Bikes Hawai'i is committed to delivering top-quality products and services to e-bike enthusiasts across the islands.
'The best way to explore Hawai'i is with a Bandit Bike!' exclaimed a representative from PowerHouse E-Bikes Hawai'i. 'We're proud to offer these exceptional e-bikes to our customers and look forward to enhancing their riding adventures.'
This partnership marks a significant step forward in promoting sustainable and enjoyable transportation options in Hawai'i. With a shared vision of innovation and community engagement, Black Rock Bikes, Bandit Electric Bikes, and PowerHouse E-Bikes Hawai'i are poised to transform the e-biking landscape across the islands.

NBA's Trail Blazers sold in $4 billion deal to owner of NHL's Hurricanes
The owner of the NHL's Carolina Hurricanes can now add the NBA's Portland Trail Blazers to his portfolio. Tom Dundon agreed to purchase the Blazers from the estate of Paul G. Allen on Wednesday, according to multiple reports. The valuation of the deal is at a little more than $4 billion, per ESPN, and Dundon is leading a group that includes co-president of Blue Owl Capital Marc Zahr and co-CEO of Collective Global Sheel Tyle, who is also Portland-based.

His sister, Jody Allen, had been acting as team governor since Allen's passing in 2018 from cancer.

It marks the latest multi-billion dollar sale of an NBA franchise this year, with the Celtics being sold for $6.1 billion in March and a deal for majority ownership of the Lakers pegging the team at a $10 billion valuation.

House prices in top catchment areas soar as parents race to bag places
House prices in top primary and secondary school catchment areas are now nearly 50 per cent more expensive than the average as competition intensifies amid an increase in private school fees. The average price of a home in the catchment areas of the top 50 primary and top 50 secondary schools in the UK is £538,490 – 42 per cent higher than the average price of homes currently coming to the market in the UK (£379,517), according to Santander. 'Competition amongst parents to get their child into their top choice primary or secondary school is fierce… Parents are understandably digging deep into their financial and emotional reserves to give their children a great education,' David Morris, Head of Homes at Santander, said. 'It's clear that this is taking a significant toll on families,' Morris added. Three-quarters of UK parents would be prepared to pay extra to be in the catchment area of a good school – up 11 per cent on last year, Santander found. VAT on private schools a major factor Parents are, on average, willing to pay a 15 per cent premium on properties within catchment areas of top schools, which means stumping up a further £57,000 on a £380,000 property. One in 10 would go as far as paying over 25 per cent extra. Adam Stiles, Managing Director at London-based Helix Financial Partners, said, said that the government's decision to place VAT on private education is behind the change. 'The burden now placed on the state school system by imposing the politically motivated VAT on private education has not only seen many private schools shut, but is now pushing house prices up to unaffordable levels for the public as a whole,' Stiles said. 'Sadly, this Government rarely sees past the end of its nose when it comes to the unintended consequences of policies,' he added. Over a fifth of parents whose children are currently at private school say they have plans to move them to a state school due to higher fees, with two thirds planning to relocate to achieve this, Santander found. Michelle Lawson, Director at Fareham-based Lawson Financial, said the increasing premium on properties near top schools is 'putting pressure on local areas'. '[It] effectively becomes a property premium tax,' she added.
