How fast is a ebike?
The speed of an eBike can vary depending on several factors such as the motor power, battery capacity, and LOCAL regulations. In the US, most ebikes are limited to a top speed of 20 mph when the motor is engaged, though some models may be capable of going faster. It's important to note that ebikes are not considered motorcycles, and their speed may also be limited by other factors such as rider input and terrain.
