The ebike class 1/2/3 concept is stupid puritan nonsense driven by cyclist jealousy and serves only to limit the usefulness of ebikes as car replacements.

    My daily commute is just under 20 Km's on average. I started doing it by speed Pedelec (Class C) a few years ago. It seems that my commute has become father on average because I don't have to bother about parking space (most companies around here don't have staff parking lots) and rush hour trafic. I leave for work 10 minutes later than I did by car.

    When the weather is really bad I use public transport, which is fine. I invested in decent clothing to keep me cool, warm or dry and that has been one of the best investment ever.
