LeGrand Crewse has been biking for his entire life — but it wasn’t until he made his own bike that he knew he would “change the world.”


On this episode of the PCH Driven podcast, Super73 founder LeGrand Crewse talks about his journey from enthusiast and hobbyist to founding and electric, fat-tire motorbike company based in Orange County.

“My very first memory of what I’d call freedom was actually on my fifth birthday,” Crewse says. Why? “I got my very first bike.”

That He-Man bike with a three speed shifter is “all he wanted,” Crewse says. The bike let him explore his hometown in Arizona on his own and introduced him to biking, which he continued as a teen and into adulthood — until he got his first car. Then, he says, the bike went into the garage and he became fascinated with customizing his new gas-powered ride.

“[It’s] a little bit cringeworthy now, but I put this, you know, loud exhaust on it and spray painted the wheels and spent way too much money at Autozone on various little pieces,” he says.

It was his corporate job—and its miserable 17-mile commute—that would later match his flair for customization with his earlier love for bikes and inspire him to build his first electric vehicle

“I thought, ‘hey, well, maybe I'll ride my bike to and from work’. That only happened a few times— and I realized ‘this is not fun’, you know, especially at the end of the day—riding an hour and a half back,” he says “Eventually, that's kind of what led me to saying, hey, what if I put a motor on one of these things, and let's see what happens.”

By trial and error, Crewse taught himself how to convert his bike into an ebike over the course of months. He continued tinkering with it, adding different motors, power controllers and batteries. Eventually, he turned his bike into a vehicle that could get him to and from the office in comfort.

“It literally changed my life. Because at that point, you know, that commute went from being this horrible thing in the beginning of my day — and the end of the day, too. It was the thing that brought me joy, it was what I woke up and was looking forward to was the ride to work the ride back, because I didn't have to take the same roads that I normally did,” says Crewse, “And so just going through and not dealing with traffic and cars and all that frustration, it was everything… It completely changed my life and that I was so excited about this.”

At the time he began working on his first creation, Crewse was also starting grad school. To everyone who knew him at the office and in class, he was “definitely that annoying ebike guy.”

He says he showed off his custom ebike to everyone, and spent the next five years trying to create prototypes and monetize his creations. He began to work with small manufacturers to convert their bikes into electric bikes. During that time he developed a drive system and a process that could easily convert a regular bicycle into an electric bicycle.

“And so that became my niche.”

An old friend’s Facebook post inviting Crewse to join him on a vacation in China later became the catalyst for his own bike company. While there, Crewse met with electric motor manufacturers and suppliers, visited factories and learned about the Chinese railway system. He used the knowledge and network he developed in China to grow his business. Along the way, he met Aaron Wong and Michael Cannavo, who would later become his two co-founders.

The two had been trying to manufacture and market cargo scooters to large warehouses to help move materials from one area to another. The concept didn’t pan out and the two had been considering ways they could electrify their creation. That’s where Crewse came in as the expert in electric drive train technology. Together, they used the manufacturing space and equipment and paired it with Crewse’s electric bicycle converter to produce ebikes. Slowly the model started to take off.

The first Super73 product the trio produced together was born out of a heavily-modified Taco mini bike kit, a Southern California brand that was popular in the ‘60s, and combined it with a fat tire kids’ bike they bought at a chain outlet. Their first-edition Super73 had 500 orders in the first month of the startup’s Kickstarter campaign.

“All of us kind of realized, ‘Oh, we actually have to do this for real’,” Crewse says.

It took the group a year and a half to fill those initial orders. At the same time, however, they were working on the next generation of the Super73. Now, the company has grown to offer a line of ebikes, and will soon be expanding into electric motorcycles.

Now, with a successful company in their hands, Super73 still holds onto the same values of electrifying transportation, making it accessible and creating products for the next generation.

“One of the things that never gets old, I will tell you, to this very day, when I see one of our bikes blasting down, I see people having fun on it. I mean, it's just, it makes everything worth it,” says Crewse. “[For] people to be able to go and enjoy this thing that you know, that I got to experience 11 years ago…. It's deeply, deeply satisfying.”

Forget Rockets, This Long Beach Startup Spins Satellites Into Orbit

🔦 Spotlight

Hello Los Angeles!

It may be scorching this weekend, but the real heat is coming out of Long Beach, where SpinLaunch just raised $30 million to accelerate its Meridian Space satellite constellation. If you’ve heard of SpinLaunch before, it’s probably because of its wild approach: instead of burning tons of rocket fuel, the company literally spins payloads in a giant centrifuge before releasing them into the sky. It sounds like science fiction, but it’s one of the boldest bets on making access to orbit cheaper, faster, and more sustainable.

Image Source: SpinLaunch

The new funding will go toward advancing Meridian Space, a low Earth orbit broadband network that aims to deliver flexible, affordable global connectivity. With its first customer links expected in 2026, the project has the potential to do more than beam internet. It could reshape how enterprises, defense networks, and communities around the world connect. For Los Angeles, it’s a reminder that our region isn’t just about building the next social app or entertainment platform. We’re also home to the companies trying to redefine the very infrastructure of the digital age.

And while space tech often feels far away, SpinLaunch keeps its roots planted firmly here. Its headquarters and orbital accelerator facility sit right in Long Beach, reinforcing Southern California’s reputation as a launchpad for both aerospace and climate conscious innovation. After all, swapping fuel heavy rockets for a ground based launch system isn’t just cost effective, it’s far greener.

So while you’re cranking the A/C this weekend, remember SpinLaunch is busy cranking satellites into orbit, proving once again that in Los Angeles we don’t just chase the stars, we spin new ways to reach them.

                      The Legal System Just Got Its AI Upgrade

                      🔦 Spotlight

                      Hello Los Angeles!

                      We talk a lot about AI in L.A., usually in the context of streaming platforms that “recommend” a movie you regret watching or apps that let you swap your face onto a Marvel poster. But the most interesting AI stories here aren’t gimmicks; they’re rewiring the hidden machinery of massive, slow moving industries. And this week, that spotlight falls on…lawyers.

                      LawPro.ai, a Los Angeles based legal tech startup, just closed a priced seed round led by Scopus Ventures to bring AI deeper into the world of injury claims. Their new “Case Assistant” isn’t about flashy automation, it’s about instantly surfacing case insights, cutting down endless hours of drafting, and helping law firms run with the precision of a Formula 1 pit crew.

                      Here’s why this matters: the legal industry has been one of the last holdouts when it comes to adopting tech that actually speeds things up. Now, with AI making its way from the red carpet to the courtroom, we’re watching the early stages of a shift that could change how justice is delivered in real time. In L.A., we’ve already seen AI startups shaking up entertainment, aerospace, and healthcare. Legal might be next.

                      And if LawPro.ai pulls it off, you might not just get a faster verdict, you might see the ripple effect across an industry that has spent decades charging by the hour. In other words, the billable clock might finally start running in our favor.

                                      Happy Friday, Los Angeles!

                                      This week, LA’s biggest tech and media players made one thing clear: they want to own the relationship. Whether it’s a celebrity sending selfies straight to your home screen or a content giant rewriting the rules of sports broadcasting, the power shift toward more curated, direct experiences is unmistakable, and it’s being engineered right here.

                                      Venice-based Locket, the viral photo sharing app that made homescreen widgets cool, is now leaning into what LA does best: celebrity. Its new feature, Celebrity Lockets, allows artists to send exclusive photos directly to fans’ home screens. Early adopters include Suki Waterhouse and JVKE, with creators curating limited fan access to maintain intimacy and exclusivity. As Locket evolves from a casual social tool into a direct fan engagement platform, it’s becoming an increasingly relevant player in LA’s creator tech ecosystem.

                                      🏈 Disney’s ESPN Plays Offense

                                      Disney made a trio of bold moves this week that solidify ESPN’s future and its dominance in sports media. It’s buying out the NFL’s stake in ESPN, securing exclusive NFL Draft and behind the scenes content through 2033, and finally giving its standalone ESPN streaming service a launch date: August 21, 2025. That’s a power play straight out of Burbank. At the same time, Disney announced it will no longer report individual subscriber numbers for Disney Plus and Hulu, signaling a shift in how it wants investors and maybe consumers to measure success.

                                      In a sign of LA’s growing national influence not just in entertainment, but in news, the New York Post is launching a West Coast vertical called The California Post. With an editorial mission to cover the state’s cultural and political pulse, this move reflects a broader trend of major media brands planting roots in LA to chase both readers and relevance. For local media startups, content creators, and civic tech players, it’s yet another sign that the competition and the opportunity is growing.

Users can now share what they’re doing, watching, or feeling with a smaller group, clearly borrowing from the intimacy playbooks of apps like BeReal, Snapchat, and yes, Locket. As social platforms shift from mass broadcast to curated circles, LA-based creators and consumer startups should take note: the next frontier might not be going viral, it might be going personal.

                                      From star-powered lockets to streaming shakeups and platform reinventions, this week’s stories highlight how LA’s tech and media companies are rewriting the rules on connection and control.
