minus-squaregian linkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·1 month ago Have you ever ridden an eBike? Yes. It’s totally easy to reach 25km/h by pedalling. It’s also possible to reach that speed (and to go over that) on a normal bicycle without a motor I didn’t ask if it is possible but how many times you reach that speed while pedaling versus how many time you reach it using the throttle.
minus-squarebrot@feddit.orglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·1 month agoI reach it every time. You do not need much pedal assist to reach the max. And if I’m on my road bike without a motor, I’m even faster. And I communte by bicycle and can tell you: 25km/h is the default speed for eBikes
