    How Often And How Long Are Class 3 E-Bikes Traveling At More Than 20 MPH?

    As meschwett states above you to get to the 28mph speed, with an ebike providing pedal assist, the cyclist needs to put out a decent amount of wattage to the pedals for the bike to provide a minimum of approximately twice the wattage. But my Class 3 Creo 2 only has 320W maximum. I know I have...

    Ravemen FR160 or 300

    I use a FR300 on a out front Garmin mount on the lower mount on my Creo. It works very well as a "be seen" light. it has side visibility that many lights do not have. I would recommend it to others. It is a poor night riding light since it is only 300 lumens, and the angle of light projection is...

    How Often And How Long Are Class 3 E-Bikes Traveling At More Than 20 MPH?

    I have been wondering about the current 3-Class eBike classification system too. I have seen some interesting new classification systems being bounced around. Currently, there are variety of legitimate Class 3 ebikes, which, as we know, have a motor assist cut-off at 28mph while pedaling only. I...

    How Often And How Long Are Class 3 E-Bikes Traveling At More Than 20 MPH?

    My average speed on paved road routes, that I ride near my house, ranges from 15-18mph. On these routes, here are a few intersections, and traffic signals before I reach the fun, good roads, I usually ride in 20-40% boost on my Creo 2 Class 3. My highest assist setting is set to 70%, which is...

    Garmin RearVue 820 Radar Light impressions

    A quick update, not sure when the update happened, but I have not used my Creo for a week or so, was on my MTB. I see they reversed the Split Screen view background from black to white, maybe there was a choice before, though I cannot find it. But the interesting change was the removal of the...

    Yeah it is a bit limiting here. I did the 3 miles all downhill and the guy I mentioned got the tickets with his friend so 600$ to the county ! Ridiculous ! I won't chance it again myself. I know the trail well, as I have ridden it on full sus MTBs, it is a bear to climb back up, which I just did...

    I could identify the location of your photo even before reading your post! I am on the other coast now. It is so different! I grew up near Albany NY, had a few trips (unfortunately, not on a bike) to the Mass and NH coast...it is so beautiful!! Also Maine.

    I know this is not the right place to post these pics but I had a great long ride on my analog MTB. A long 3 hour ride. most Trails in San Mateo county do not allow eBikes. and will get ticketed. Recently, I met a guy on a road ride at the Bike Hut, and he told me about his $300 ticket on a...

    Wow, you were crus'n! 30mph and 30mph winds! I should try a group ride on my Creo, would have to find a group that allows eBikes. but most group rides are sooooo early. I am a sunset rider usually. My legs are still tight from my MTB ride I rode on Sunday, 13.5 miles with 2840ft, with way too...

    Yes, the target range of my Power output. First time ever using the Garmin Coach. I didn't do much research but I just set it up last night in Garmin Connect and it gave me this for the first workout. I don't race so I never had any sort of schedule, just trying this now. it is a 5 day a week...
