RE: Should Electric Bikes Be Allowed on Hiking Trails?

in #steemstem7 years ago

In much of the world, the legal limit for the wattage of an electric bicycle motor is 250.

Seems like you are lucky living in your state allowing 1k. I think one of the reason there is such a ban is the states want to protect them self against any la suits in case there is an accident, but that’s my opinion. Seems like China already solved this ebike issue.

Kind of. Many people just disregard the law in China. They tried to ban ebikes in cities a year or two ago but almost everybody in cities used ebikes, so it was not enforceable.
