To activate the battery, you’ll use a throttle mounted on the handlebars. Pedelec: the other main style of electric bicycle. On this kind of bike, you will have to pedal to engage the motor, but not very hard. A sensor resides in the bottom bracket that tells the motor when you’re pedaling—and, often, how fast—so it can assist you accordingly. 20 miles per hour: the maximum electric bicycle speed allowed in the US. Speed demons can use their legs to go faster, but the motor is required to cut out after that point.
