Those are legal, at least in the EU. It's called "push support" or "walk assist", my bike engages it when I long-press the down button. It's purpose is to help you push the heavy e-bike up ramps and hills, but I mainly use it as a throttle when I ride behind my toddler on his balance bike.
It's closer to 3mph than 5mph, and as such needs some slow-riding skills, but it works.
- s0rce 7mo agoOne of my bikes without a thumb throttle has this but there is a bit of delay from the long-press required which I don't like compared to the basically instant response of the thumb throttle. It also requires a bit for attention to press the small button vs the throttle you can keep your eyes on the road.
