    Well, 1000w is larger than 750w so it does not matter where you are, its still above the limit.

        “May be” and “could” aren’t necessarily intrepretations of the spec.

        An in shape MTB rider puts out 200-250w. This is still 4-5x what a human can do. Its going to cause an increase in damage to trails, and vastly increase the rate of accidents - both of the rider and others.

        I rarely to never see people on “ebikes” show up to repair trails where I live, but they’re always on the trails…

          They’re still limited to 20 mph for Class 1, a lot slower than a pedal bike would go down a hill, the extra power really only gets used going up hills.
