How fast does an electric bike go?

The speed of an electric bike depends on a number of factors, including the type of bike, the power of the motor, the weight of the rider, and the terrain. In general, electric bikes can go faster than traditional bicycles, but they are still limited by the speed of the rider’s legs.

Most electric bikes have a top speed of 20–28 miles per hour (32–45 km/h). However, some high-performance electric bikes can go even faster. For example, the Stromer ST5 has a top speed of 30 miles per hour (48 km/h).

It is important to note that the speed of an electric bike is also limited by the law. In most jurisdictions, electric bikes are classified as bicycles, and therefore they are subject to the same speed limits as bicycles.

Here are some tips for riding an electric bike safely:

• Wear a helmet and other protective gear.
• Be aware of your surroundings and obey the traffic laws.
• Start slowly and gradually increase your speed as you become more comfortable.
• Be careful when riding in wet or slippery conditions.
• Avoid riding on busy roads or highways.

If you are new to electric bikes, it is a good idea to take a safety course or talk to an experienced rider before you start riding.
