That was the original plan, because that way I could rib some of the e-bikers who were slower than yours truly on an analog bike. SWMBO got herself a new Class 2 e-bike and I had to try it out on my favourite rail trail.
There are 9 levels of PA on the bike and I was curious with how little one could get by while staying at the 32 km/h / 20 mp/h limit.
Level 1 proved to be enough, biggest gear in 68 cadence mode and the BPM at < 130 did the trick.
So today I ordered a RBSM
Mud Adder Electric eBike 500W Motor, 48 Volt Bafang Brushless Rear Hub, that should arrive within two weeks.
It will be an interesting experience even if it is at age 76.
