minus-squarepsud@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up7·2 months agoI couldn’t electrify my bike, it is a recumbent that can get to 60km/h under my pedaling power (and I’m not that fit), more when going down hill. It would exceed the e-bike speed limit even on a 200W motor

minus-squarepsud@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·edit-22 months agoI do them quickly enough, about 8 to 12km/h depending on steepness
