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.

What the fuck why? Is there a class 4 bike that can go 55, but isn't allowed to have brakes?
We have 2 classes of mopeds. The ones that are allowed to reach speed up to 25 km/h (class A - without license) and the ones that go up to 45 km/h (class B - with license. These mopeds have combustion engines and no usable pedals. E-bikes with a throttle are considered electrical mopeds and aren't categorized as e-bikes anymore.
E-bikes or mopeds aren't allowed to reach speeds above 45 km/h.
