actually thats not true. but a small one wont do much. When i had my long wheel base recumbent it had a good fairing and it made a big difference. I only had the plastic fairing but it made a big difference. my coasting speed downhill was crazy. but it was also noisy like a giant speaker. this was one of the fastest bikes like 65mph I think.It is my opinion only but I ride a lot during winters. A windshield or fairing make sense only if you have a powerful motor on your e-bike and would only ride on the throttle (I am sure @PCeBiker will be proud to demonstrate his windshield!) Otherwise, the air drag makes the idea rather poor.
I recommend you run a Forum search with the words "Winter" and especially "Minnesotan" (search for titles only). It will give you ideas how people ride e-bikes in the winter, and you wouldn't rather find a mention of a windshield there.

Well that's really not true. THERE ARE4 SUCCESSFUL FAIRINGS. One of the best makers has sadly lost his hardware guy. I have had several windscreens with fair to mis; and results. In the end they are more nuisance than they are worth in the current market. A clever fellow with metal work and mounting knowledge could have a nice fairing. But again, I think better suited to a eM obility vehicle. Any fairing will still dump cold air on your forehead. When the darn thing fogs out and your eyes are above the screen. Sub freezing riding in my world is better with my helmet balaclava and quality fog free goggles. It was 19F on my ride home tonight. Arctic goose down parka 700 fill goose down and...you wouldn't rather find a mention of a windshield there.
