First reported in June, the speed cap was initiated amidst growing concerns over safety. In his most recent statement Adams said “As more New Yorkers turn to e-bikes and e-scooters to get around our city, New Yorkers have asked us to set clear, consistent rules to address this issue and protect everyone.”

 Most legal e-bikes are legally limited to a 20mph/32kph (Class 1) but Class 3 bikes that can travel up to 25mph/48kph are also legal on New York City’s streets and bike lanes.

Citi Bike’s rental e-bikes owned by Lyft lowered the top speed of their units from 18mph/11kph to 15mph/24kph back in June in response to threats from the the Adams administration.
