Ok, thanks.
Do you have any good mod to get past the pedal only drive?

Hi Niklas
Don't have any answer for your specific question but I want give some experience about the 25km/h limit on an ecoride bike.
I am in Sundsvall myself and my fiancé bought an ecoride ambassador 28" ebike a few years ago.
It was strictly limited to 25km/h and did cut off power abruptly at that speed.
This was the reason I knew that it was a limit and not the motor reaching top rpm for the given battery voltage under load.
I investigated possibilities to modify the controller or similar to remove the limiter, had it disassembled several times, but it was over my ability.
Asked some questions on the uk pedelec forum, got some advice but it seemed hard to bypass the limit.
I ended up buying a new controller + display from aliexpress and redid the installation on that bike.
The result is a bike which tops out around 31-32km/h but will gradually assist less over 26-27km/h.
The riding experience is night and day better than the abrupt cut at 25km/h.
It is also a big difference in making distance on countryside roads where you ride at max speed constantly.
The new display unit is also better than the old ecoride unit.
The ecoride have a thumb throttle which is intended for assist when you walk with the bike. It assists up to 6-7km/h.
During my experiments and tries to disable the 25km/h speed limit I only managed to remove the 7km/h limiter on the thumb throttle.
So it was basically possible to ride the bike up to 25km/h with the thumbthrottle.
Not that it was much value in that.
