A new bill introduced in the Oregon Legislature aims to prohibit the operation of Class 3 electric-assisted bicycles on sidewalks, bicycle lanes, & bike paths.
My point is, giving your average Joe, who may not have the skill or experience to be at those speeds, “effortless” power to sustain those speeds is problematic in bike lanes.
Oh, come on now. 50 km/h on flat without much training? For what, a few seconds?
These two guys are ex pros and couldn’t average 50km/h with high end bikes, on flat terrain, while drafting.
