Wouldn't it be so much easier to just slow these things down, considering they're electric? I always wondered why I'm such a slow cyclist. Turns out it was because I was riding shared bikes, which have a total of three gears, all of them relatively low. To reach 16km/h or 10mph in such a vehicle one would have to pedal like a maniac.
