Hi
I don't think this has been asked yet:
In Switzerland the rules for the low power e-bike states that the power of the motor is "maximum 500w". Does this refer to the continuous power (i.e. motor stamped 500w), or to the peak power (in which case I assume it's Controller Current setting x Volts)...
In the UK it's 250W continuous, and I thought Switzerland were more generous? But a Bafang BA02 500W supplier in europe has suggested that the rules are for PEAK and not CONTINUOUS power. Would make a big difference
Cheers
Damien
