New York: Ebike Deal
When Delfast bikes were showcased in New York, we noticed a surprising number of electric bikes on the streets. Despite the official ban on high-powered throttle-controlled e-bikes, they seem to be everywhere. That’s why we received so many inquiries about **eBike in NYC**. Just like on the West Coast, where cities like Los Angeles and San Francisco have more relaxed regulations, e-bikes are in high demand among New Yorkers.
There are around 50,000 delivery workers who use these bikes daily in the city. In a way, it makes sense that this is where you’d want a powerful e-bike. With heavy traffic, limited parking, and high gas prices, e-bikes offer a smart and efficient alternative for getting around.
It's only a matter of time before the legal framework catches up with reality and these e-bikes stop being stuck in a legal gray area.
One sign of change is the proposed Green New Deal. New York Governor Andrew Cuomo has introduced an ambitious plan to move toward sustainability and renewable energy. This includes increasing the share of electricity from renewable sources to 70% by 2030 and investing $1.5 billion in large-scale solar, wind, and energy storage projects. In some ways, this plan is even more aggressive than California’s current policies. As e-bikes become more common, it's likely that their legalization will follow—not just because they're everywhere, but because regulation is needed to ensure they don’t disrupt public transportation.
While some may think authorities are ignoring the issue, the NYPD confiscated over 1,000 e-bikes last year—clearly showing that there is a real problem.
To address this, some manufacturers have started limiting the top speeds of their bikes. Delfast, for example, allows riders to switch between speed modes directly on the bike’s computer. When entering public roads, users can lock the speed and power to the legal limit, making them function like regular bicycles without requiring a license. This seems like a practical solution for e-bike owners in New York for now.
