The PEDEGO word mark is a US registration for electric-powered bicycles held under an earlier Pedego company, and its current holder was not confirmed.
- Pedego sells its electric bikes in the US through its own store at pedegoelectricbikes.com, where an order ships either to an authorized dealer at no charge or direct to the buyer's home by FedEx.
- The store's terms name PEDEGO Inc., a Delaware corporation, as the seller.
- The range covers fat tire, folding, commuter, mountain and trike models sold through a dealer network and the brand's own store.
- The Amazon listings found are sold by third-party sellers.
- None of Walmart, Best Buy, Target, Costco, Dick's Sporting Goods, REI, Home Depot or Lowe's sells Pedego e-bikes as the seller; Walmart carries only a Pedego basket accessory (October 2026).
