Check your local laws of course, but I think we're good around here up to 20mph before it's not legally a bicycle-
The movie says 15mph max.
Suddenly I feel so speedy!

A gent came out on his electric mtb-ish model to join our club ride.
Why not, but we told him we tried to average 18-20mph, he said no problem.
He was dropped on the first slight descent at 20mph, we hauled him back in, explained the speed thing again, and dropped him again- sorry man!

I'm glad my paycheck is not linked to electric bike acceptance.
They're cool, sure, but $2k+ so I don't to sweat *as much*?

Give me a Copenhagen wheel or somesuch to play with for a week.
Or month.
And price it under 1k.
