    Thank you for your response. My state has a speed limit of 20 mph for electric assisted bicycles. I wonder what sort of conflict there is between the speed of these E bikes and the state regulations. Seems it would be difficult to enforce also. Thanks again

    I am considering purchasing a 2017 turbo next week at a reasonable discount. Would you happen to know which motor (200 or 250) this bike has? I can't find it on the Specialized website nor the local bike dealers website. I have been riding road bikes for 30 years and this would be my first E...
