Mine complies with the law though so limited in speed and is pedal assist only. Although if you sit in 3rd gear you can do the pedal motion without any resistance and thus get full electric usage.
That’s actually pretty cool that you customized a lot of its aspects! What’s the max speed it can reach?

25km/h is the speed the motor cuts out at. But you can still cycle faster than that.
I've been tempted to see if it's possible to bypass but at the same time I don't have a need to go any faster and get unwanted attention from the police.

Yeah, it sure would be pretty interesting to find the maximum speed possible, but it’s definitely quite a bit risky.

Yeah I imagine it would also have a major impact on the battery life which once the battery is dead, riding an ebike is horrible!
