Not sure where you from, but 25km/h here in Austria (and most of the EU) is not the speed limit, just the limit to which the motor will assist you. Anything beyond that and you're either on your own or you buy a S-Pedelec that needs a license plate, horn, helmet, and even license plate lights.
Thanks for occupying the whole lane, that's how we should ride bicycles for our own safety.
- gorgoiler 5y agoGreat point. In practice, the type of bike I ride (a Rad Runner Plus) is optimised for comfort under power rather than efficiency. Power will come almost entirely from the 250W motor with maybe no more than 50W from me. Once the motor tops the bike out at 25km/h, I'm not going to be going any faster without a major change of stance, gear, and expectation of exercise. Athletic biking is for the weekends :)
