    New ebike - Throttle Assist MUCH Faster than 3.5mph

    Seemed to have stirred up a wee can of worms here. I don't ride the bike in throttle only mode. That would defeat the purpose of having pedals and getting exercise. The acceleration from the throttle is very useful at traffic lights but especially roundabouts. TBH 3.5mph would be pretty...
