Travelling faster than 20mph using the throttle

The throttle is a great feature to have on your bike, but it is still a bicycle, and the best output will be achieved by pedaling. For this reason, we offer assist levels that will help you pedal comfortably with reduced effort.

Federal law requires that electric bicycles be limited to a maximum throttle speed of 20mph. We always ensure compliance with regulations so that consumers can be confident in their purchase. The bike’s components may be capable of higher performance, but are limited for the rider’s safety.

Some of our bikes have the capability to unlock this extra power output, as we understand the loading will be different based on the rider and terrain. Always be aware of your local regulations and restrictions, as our bikes are setup per Federal regulations.

We recommend you increase the assist and pedal while in low gear to give your bike a smooth, well-powered ride while using the throttle when you want to move faster. We offer several power options on our different models to suit a variety of customer needs. All of our bikes have sufficient assist power and will help in any situation.
