@@JonByrne from what iv learnt its the throttle thats illegal and its what the police look for .... they cant judge the watts from looking at the motor and need actually evidence that its over 250w which is impossible unless they catch you doing 16mph+ A police officer we spoke too confirmed this... because they cant have proof unless theres a throttle as he said if you have a throttle you need to pass your CBT licence but other than that they cant gather evidence unless theyve clocked you Same applies when they catch you speeding, unless they have actual evidence they cannot prosecute

I used to have a small wheeled bike as a teenager. My Bro had a Moulton with the very small wheels. Mine were larger, but still smaller than regular bikes. It was a Dawes Kingpin. No idea why I should remember that, when I struggle to remember what I had for breakfast or what day of the week it is 🤣🤣

Responsible riding. It was actually good to see a ride section that was not filled with incidents. Some nasty potholes. One has to be eternally vigilant and attentive when cycling in urban and rural. I cycled around City of Bristol every day for three years. Lots of hazards, but very good experience, and enjoyable. In those three years I was never knocked off. Happy days.

It's much better than driving, and for people with much longer distances, they can get more powerful ebikes that can allow them to take their 10 mile/16km commute by bike instead of by car. For someone out of shape, trying to go straight to hard mode is a losing battle. You have to ease into it.

That was a nice efficient ride. About 2.5 to 3 kilometres im guessing? I just got my first e-bike two weeks ago and it's great for getting up to 25 kmh without any effort but it's also making it easier to get up to 30-35 kmh manually beyond the assist on flat ground with no headwind. And downhill I've got up to 55 kmh. But against a strong headwind and facing up the hills it really takes the grind out of a 20 km commute compared to my ordinary basic hybrid and it's a real alternative to taking the car.

@@tconnolly9820 yes it's about that far, I cut a little off the beginning for privacy reasons. We have two offices the other one is about 15km which you can see on some of my other videos, it's really to help with those tired days or where I have something to do when I get home. So far top speed is lower than my other bikes but as your say getting to that 25km/h mark is much faster and easier.
@blisphul8084

That's a nice short distance. I got a class 3 ebike that goes up to 28mph/45kmh (in reality, it mostly goes around 22mph/35kmh), because my office is about a 10mi/16km bike ride and that speed makes the trip reasonable. Also, for the times where I have to ride on the 40mph/65kmh main road, I want to be going at least somewhat close to the speed of the cars around me, given that there is no bike or walking path leaving my apartment onto the main road. Fortunately my route to work has a secret safe path through the transfer station behind the apartment, but if I want to go east, that route takes me on a different main road anyway.
