IT seems to be - this must be rooted in regulatory reasons since e-bikes faster than 25km/h count as small motor bikes and come wiht a requirement for a licence plate and drivers license. Probably the manufacturers don't want to go there.
If anybody is aware of officially available bikes or...
Thanks! This looks like a nice bike! However, in Switzerland / EU I could only find an official version that goes up to 28 mph - they are capped at 25km/h.
I'm looking for an e-bike for my GF to go ride together. She would need a little built-in tail wind to help her keep up with me on the flats (somewhat beyond 30km/h) and on climbs. Can you suggest a model? Interested in brand bikes and DIY builds. It should be street legal.
Wondering if the Bafang M820 can be equipped with two chain rings. Bafang have a video on their website that shows a nice road bike with a 2x setup, but I could not find any detailed information parts, compatibility, etc. Does anybody have any experience to share?
