    Should the std MPH be increased by + 3mph to18mph

    Ultimately ebikes are privvy to the same rules non ebikes are. It's all down to the person sat on the saddle and how skilled/mindful they are. Doesn't matter if you're propelled by a motor or propelling yourself to the same high speeds on a non electric bike - the person pedalling has a...

    Should the std MPH be increased by + 3mph to18mph

    I'm here on this forum as a non emtb'er. I primarily subscribed because of a specific thread I had a question for. I'm actually a hybrid ebiker so my usage is probably different to people here. From my perspective as a ebike commuter is that 20mph as a limit point is perfect, even though most of...

    Should the std MPH be increased by + 3mph to18mph

    I've had concerns about legality/warranty while using Stunlocker (on private land of course) but I completely agree with you. I could not go back to the 15mph limiter (so of course I now only use my ebike on private land) and have like you, decided that every bike I get in the future needs to...

    Shimano Steps e6100 Derestricted Question

    I've used St Unlocker to change my e6100 region to the US, effectively changing the limit to 20mph. I've now used the bike to commute this week 14 miles a day and first off wow what a difference. I'm actually quite rarely going 20mph as my commute includes some areas with many dog walkers and...

    Should the std MPH be increased by + 3mph to18mph

    I've commuted every day for 3 years by bike. 1 year on a non electric and 2 on electric. The first electric I had was a gtech sport and it served a purpose but was completely restricted to the limiter as the single gear belt drive just didn't allow you to go any faster. Now I have a shimano mid...

    STUnlocker (ex Shimano STEPS Unlocker) Android & Windows App for derestriction/market change and etc

    Thanks for the advice. I don't ever use the eco mode to be fair. Will I still get error codes anyway? I've left everything at default now, leaving it at 500w max and the only thing I've changed is the region to US (riding it finally feels like how I hoped an ebike would be!)

    STUnlocker (ex Shimano STEPS Unlocker) Android & Windows App for derestriction/market change and etc

    I've put pics on here I hope it works. Basically the app defaults to max 500 and I've changed it to a max of 250 out of fear of causing damage. Are you saying its safe to leave at 500 as it won't force the motor to stay at it continuously or am I safer to have changed it to 250? Also,it seems...

    STUnlocker (ex Shimano STEPS Unlocker) Android & Windows App for derestriction/market change and etc

    Does this mean I'm able to set the max power to 500 safely?

    STUnlocker (ex Shimano STEPS Unlocker) Android & Windows App for derestriction/market change and etc

    I've just bought a license and connected the android app to my e6100 and noticed that by default it has set the max power to 500 Watts. I live in the UK and I'm certain my motor is 250 Watts. I have had to check the box to be able to change the power setting back down to 250 Watts. My question...
