Great work by Tom Stanton here, thanks
I saw the video, and I have to say it was amazing!
Makes me wonder where you draw the line between a powerful e-bike and a low power motorcycle.

Yeah in Canada we have e-bike classes, the kind that require pedal pressure to engage motor are allowed in same places as bicycles ( like walking trails etc). When they have a throttle the class changes, because more can go wrong
Probably at the MoPed
It ain’t a motorcycle if the engine isn’t bigger than 50 cc, taps head.
Ok I think I understand. You need something more than an easy level Mario Kart.
I feel like having the horsepower of an entry level motorcycle is a decent benchmark.
Torque should also be part of it. Plenty of 250W e bikes that make 80+ Nm.
That’s similar torque to a 750 - 800cc motorbike.
An e-bike might only weight 25 kg where a low powered motorcycle is at more than 100 kg.
More power by weight is faster and can be more dangerous
Good point. Maybe similar HP/mass ratios? Idk
That’s usually legally defined somewhere depending on your location. Wher I am it’s defined based on rated power output of the motor.
Pretty cool to think that I could… make my bicycle ride marginally easier by carrying a propane torch with me and blowing fire between my legs?
The ol’ Thighburner 1500!
maybe the heat source is actually from thigh friction… hmmm
It also has an innovative AIO hybrid cooling system that uses both air, and blood, to keep the outer chassis cool.
