Ost@feddit.nutomicromobility - Bikes, scooters, boards: Whatever floats your goat, this is micromobility@lemmy.worldâąAmsterdam testing system that can remotely slow e-bikes downEnglish1·1 year agoSweden has 250W tops for bikes at 25km/h.
Moped class 2 are the ones who can ride in the bike path with up to 1000W and 25km/h for cutoff. These do require insurance (~âŹ6/mo) , but are mostly for delivery services where 250W just isnât enough. These also require a helmet.
So far this system has worked pretty well with no insane speeders in the news yet. With anecdotal evidence itâs usually the insane wattage that really encourages bad behaviour.
Check out the Skoda CitiGo. 36.4kWh of small car goodness without any screens or updates. Just Bluetooth. Navigation is provided using your phone in the factory mount or a TomTom. Itâs basically a scaled down e-Up with analog switches.
