- AI server demand contributed to shortages of key components.
- The company is also pursuing commercial electric delivery vehicles.

## Summary

Also, Rivian’s micromobility spinoff, is beginning to deliver its modular TM-B electric bikes after delays caused by component shortages and production challenges. President Chris Yu says shipments are now increasing, a key step for a young company whose designs and software make production more complex than assembling a conventional bike.

The shortages included circuit-board materials also needed by AI server makers, while US e-bike regulations and customer communication added further difficulties. Also has not disclosed how many bikes it has delivered; some customers have reported delays, and early riders have encountered minor software problems. The company is also preparing standard and performance TM-B models and developing the TM-Q delivery vehicle.
