Throttle ? Yes or no ?

I am a former throttle afficianoso, however, after reading and sharing with this group, I have decided to have all my throttles removed.
Keep in mind, removing the throttle doesn't legally convert your class 2 bike into a class 1 in some jurisdictions. Since class stickers and throttles are easily altered or removed, law enforcement in some locations, including the park rangers in my home state, use a list by make & model to determine the class of a bike. It would be a good idea to check the laws in the places you ride.

Wouldn't it be easier to simply not use your throttle instead of removing it?

Or perhaps even better would be to not give a šŸ’© what other ideo_illogical people say or do and make a decision based on your own needs and uses.

i went the other way and disconnected pas on my vintage kit mtbs. i used to ride both of them a lot until father time got in the way, but i still like to use them as a pedal bike until the going gets too much. pas just rubs me the wrong way, especially since bafang bbs decided if you turned off pas, it also disables throttle.
