- digi_owl 10y ago25kmh with pedaling (you can go faster, but the engine will stop assisting at that point) and 6kmh on just engine. I keep seeing videos on /r/ebike and similar from USA where some yahoo has ordered engine and battery from Ebay or China that can push the thing way into motorcycle range.
- masklinn 10y ago> 6kmh on just engine. FWIW that makes it not a bicycle according to EN15194. EN15194 recommends a bicycle classification for vehicles which * only ever provide assistance * below 25km/h (with progressive cutoff) * with maximum continuous rated power of 250W Anything beyond that is classified as a moped. Though EN15194 is a recommandation, member states are free to follow it or not.
