15.5 mph is ridiculously low. 20mph assist limit would be sensible. Even on my emtb on the flat I can get to 22-23 so why not have the assistance? Likewise if you have high assist like turbo you can move along the flat barely tickling the pedals, so why not have a throttle mode for emergencies (get you home with an injury) or even getting up those difficult areas where many pedal strikes could not be avoided. I can hit over 30 downhil and roadies can pedal at 30 on the road. Whats safer? Pedalling hell for leather side to side or having assist where you can progress more smoothly and pay attention to the traffic?

@herrtomas6729 2 года назад

Agree. I feel I’m battling beyond 15mph, where I ride my ordinary commute at about 18-20mph on the flat. Don’t need ridiculously higher limit, but 20 would be the sensible spot. Anyway where did 15.5 come from? Sounds like a kph conversion…

@herrtomas6729 2 года назад

Also look at gearing. My eBike is 4:1 max, yet road bikes are closer to 5:1 and can easily top 40mph. I can reach 35 on a gentle slope with my motor off - and I’m the wrong side of 60!

You are choosing to ride on a surface designed for vehicles, you are in their domain, if you want to keep up with traffic put more effort in or pay the insurance for a higher wattage bike, i find most peoples attitudes to e bikes are just lazy cyclists, im a lycra wanka and an e bike rider, when i want exercise and speed i ride my road bike, if i want an effortless leisurely ride I grab my ebike. Now this is a different story for elderly and disabled as there is a legitimate reason for needing the assistance, but again if you want to go faster in a vehicles domain then you pay for insurance. So its not really about safety when it comes to speed, you are naked in the air with just a helmet vs a metal box, you choose to take the risk, just like anything in life, i mean id like it if the e bike went faster but that is just me being lazy

@theclanmeikle6135 2 года назад

I have a single speed /fixie flip flop road bike. I use it to commute to work. I bought a front wheel kit and large 624 wh battery. Easy to install and superb for the hills. I find myself regularly doing 40 - 50 kmph at between 90 and 100 rpm. The assist cuts out at 27.5 kmph. I could easily do well over 100 miles on one charge. I look forward to hills now. I think using a fixed gear bike has been helpful to consistently beat the speed limiter. 46 tooth chain ring and 16 tooth cog with 700c wheels is a good selection for the hills in my area of Scotland 😊

@space.youtube 2 года назад

2:45 Almost EVERY car you can buy is capable of exceeding legal speed limits. In fact a car's (or motorbike) top speed has NO bearing on its road worthiness. So why should it be any different for an ebike? Unless you're arguing (by implication) that cars and motorbikes should be speed restricted to not exceed legal limits, your comparison actually works against you. It's a dumb rule that only adds confusion, inconsistency and unnecessary complexity to ebike regulation. Picture an ebike that's "assist restricted" travelling down a steep hill below the legal speed limit but above its assist restriction. In this case no rules are broken but the "assist restriction" law is made a mockery of. If an ebike (or any other bicycle) is not breaking the law going down hill, WHY should it be deemed to be breaking the law on a flat for travelling at the exact same speed?

I agree 100% I've been looking up E-bikes as I'm really thinking about getting one, as I don't have a driver's license yet, and our only grocery closed in town. So I started looking into these as a way to get to the town over. I realized very quickly that the speed limitations, doesn't make any sense. If anything I've learned that a lot of people that get E-bikes, don't feel like their going fast enough for cars behind them.

@nucleardwarf1218 2 года назад

As you guys are regularly smashing rides on e-bikes, why not show some realtime stats on wear and tear on your own bikes ie., how many miles you rode before the chain gave up, distances travelled, issues that presented themselves. This would give existing and potential users of e-mountain bikes a perspective of owning one.

@jeffriley2502 2 года назад

20 mph is still too slow in USA. Trails often would like a little more. Some of my unrestricted friends walk away in certain parts of our rides. Open areas that are safe. Common sense goes a long way.

@AleksandarGospic 2 года назад

As I wrote several times, for me cool solution would be to have additional ROAD mode, in which limit would be like in the US (20mph/32kmh, although round 30kmh would still be fine with me), while rest of the modes can keep this 25kmh value. Of course, law should change to allow that, but from my experience I don't think it is necessary to have 32kmh limit in every mode and every situation cause saving battery and working more is also important. One can argue, well you can just turn off the assistance at 25kmh if that's you want, but that's not the same cause it's not practical and transition is way smoother when bike does it. Or maybe we could choose the limit for each mode in the settings menu, so if someone likes to go 30kmh in trail or eco, why not.

I use mine for both commuting and trails and shifting to keep her in the sweet spot is key. I have 45-10 12speed xt cassette on a 2020 stance E2. Find that I use the 10 mostly downs hill and on occasion smooth flats. I wondering if the new 2022 Reign with 15 more newton meters is going to pass that speed limiter wall easier or not as it will be more off rode oriented? I find my self peddling just as much on the road as a regular bike or even more just going faster. On the trail I have to remind my self just use the flow and peddle position at times.

@tomquimby8669 2 года назад

Since your group of channels ignore the S-Pedelec options available. it is mainly German channels that review those. The EU has better integration into the transport system by realizing E bikes are not Mopeds and changing the laws to allow for Ebike helmets rated to the Dutch safety standard and not requiring a non breathable motorcycle helmet like the UK. So it is quite reasonable that the available ebikes are being derestricted so that comfortable full suspension rides can be had on the way to work over all the pot holes. Dutch statistics have realized that most people who ride unrestricted ebikes travel at about 35kph. Since roadies normally exceed these speeds with ease where are the calls for those speedsters to have tax and insurance?

@MrJoelDavies 2 года назад

Exactly. I find it easy to get near the top end on my derestricted ebike without the assist. It just takes longer to get there without the motor. Where is the line drawn I always wonder. I’m rarely overtaken by the average spandex warrior these days now, but they can still keep up. I’ve even had some ask to draft me while getting their best Strava “KOM” around my local town haha

@MHH3180 2 года назад

Read Joel's reply. Any reasonable person can see that he makes the point for restrictions. First we complain about The Lycra Lads and they are a danger, then we talk about them not being able to keep up! I agree, motorcycle helmets on a bike that can't even reach 72kph is rediculous, but riding in a bike lane or on a MUP or tearing up a mountain trail above 25kph is just plain wrong!

@jeffp5418 2 года назад

Volspeed 4 on my Bosch. You plug it in, put the motor cover back on and you now can go up to 28mph. No error codes, no pressing buttons to set etc. Its amazing and how the bikes should come stock. Now when you're running up to a big grass table top in a park you don't have motor shut off right before the jump, same goes for any biggers jumps, it is downright dangerous to have a 53 pound bike of dead weight right before a jump, I couldn't even imagine it shutting off at 15mph. Remember this has NOTHING to do with the motor or battery, the only reason was the nanny state Karens who felt that was a good limit, well f.....k them. Do you need over 20mph in regular single track or if you don't do bigger jumps? maybe not, but would be nice to ride to the trail head a bit faster.

Being a UK/Euro user 32kph does seem like the perfect speed for most, it's a pity the EU/Gov doesn't follow suit. I'm guessing the chips and dongles probably don't sell outside of Europe because most people would be happy with the 32 km/h limit.

It struggled at 60-65, gutless, dodgy on duals etc....I fitted a Micron (NOT Omicron) exhaust, K&N filter kit and suddenly whoosh.... closer to 20bhp and it was a fun, safer, rocket that could do 90mph..... E-bike restrictors need to be upped to 32kmph, or just done away with, they are awful things (especially with the Gen3 Bosch and the 2.5 gear box, hit the limit and you think it's packed in...)

If you do why? Can’t these motors free wheel or cut out with at least close to zero resistance over 25km….??

My bikes are used 80% of the time on closed private property and I ride emtb instead of a roadbike just for longevity and not feeling like I'm constantly abusing the bike when I ride over rougher terrain. I also ride about 60km on a good day, and that's mainly in a straight line I dont mind fitting a dongle to the bike that derestricts it, for all i care make it glow red so the police sees it if infit it on road, but the idea that I need to contact bosch so they unlock my bike after three times of them noticing me riding quicker than they allow on streets is ridiculous enough that I decided to not to buy any bike with a restricted motor And it really sucks, I'd like to go to a local shop and buy some nice of the shelf bike, have normal order times, do stuff for the local economy.

@resetbikes2265 2 года назад

It depends how and where you ride, if you're on steep dh trails I agree but if the trails you ride don't have a steep gradient or are flat it's actually much harder work to keep the bike at the right speed to clear jumps etc on the ebike especially on trail centres. I'm considering going back to lower powered EP8 rs to get less drag in the system.

It's also a complete pain in the hole when a roadie casually cruises past you. As well as the fact you need to keep checking your cadence to keep within the limit. I don't see why there shouldn't be some kind of rider proficiency test, rather than pigeon holing everyone into the same restriction..... Technically, I've already got a full motorbike licence so I should be able derestrict my bike without any warranty issues. It's up to governments to legislate for tax and insurance....

Chip it and set to 22mph. Ideal speed

@MrJoelDavies 2 года назад

22 is certainly quick enough. But I find it’s easy enough to pedal 20mph at full chat. So 25 is a nice bonus for me. Although mine will go to 30 at 100% effort/engine assist ratio. 30 is good for keeping the cars behind happy (if any). Whereas anything lower feels like crawling speed to them. I feel I would still feel the speed limiter kick in at 22 like I can feel it kicking in at 16mph on my dads limited bike, which is a horrible feeling and at times more exhausting than not having any assist at all. I think it also depends on where you ride it. Off road, yeh 22 is fine I suppose. Around town I would more like 25/30 to keep myself away from traffic.

@ronhammant7309 2 года назад

I was expecting ways to overide the speed limitations of the eBike. The eBike is capable of much higher speeds than the default settings, most riders would need to pay significantly more loot to buy a faster bike when their current eBike is cable of the same speed that of the more expensive faster model. It's by law that the eMotor not be tampered with for higher speeds than regulations would allow. Look at the $millions being taken with these laws, but of course it's all about people's safety and not the money. Let's face it, no one is sensible enough to ride a bike at a higher speed than 25kph, we'd all fall over and die a horrible death. "Silly human race".

Naturally we’d all like them to go quicker. I generally go quicker on my local trails with a normal MTB than the eBike. However in shared areas a 25kg ebike is really going to hurt someone in a collision. For the good of eMTB and MTB I’m happy for the limit, especially with limited land access and the progress in trying to increase/improve this for all.

@f87max30 2 года назад

If you increase tire pressure a little bit you can do easily 35-40 kph on the flats with a little training. On the uphill sections 25 kph is fast enough. If that's not fast enough, Husqvarna and KTM have some very nice enduro motorbikes.

@@f87max30 Peddling a heavy EMTB with high rolling resistance tyres to 25mph (which is a 100% human effort) I reckon takes north of 700 watts. If you are an exceptional athlete you might be able to manage it for a short while. The average weekend warrior has no chance. The average power output for the average rider is around 280-300watts and that will give you a speed of 17-18 mph.

In my 14 km commute, regular road bike riders pass me on the long downhill as I'm limited to 32kph. From my own experience they are doing 60-80 kph on this hill. At the same time, they show no respect for any other trail users as they seem to think that the benefits gravity are paramount to EVERYTHING and not to be wasted at any cost! LOL! They seem oblivious/immune to the laws governing the rest of us.
