The ebike class 1/2/3 concept is stupid puritan nonsense driven by cyclist jealousy and serves only to limit the usefulness of ebikes as car replacements.

    Class 1 shouldn’t exist, and class 3 should have a throttle. I do think 45 kmh/28 mph is a reasonable top speed though. It’s a bicycle, not a motorcycle. Safety is a reasonable concern to have.
