We break down what the bill actually says, when it could take effect, and why these kinds of regulations are becoming a bigger part of the e-bike conversation.We also look at PeopleForBikes’ 2026 city ratings, new Megamo road and gravel bikes using powerful Avinox M2 and M2S motors, Pedego’s new e-bike insurance partnership, and a scenic ride destination in Sedona, Arizona.Plus, we answer viewer questions, including why some high-speed Amazon “e-bikes” should raise major buyer concerns.👕 Merch + Rider of the WeekRiders highlighted during the Rider of the Week section get a free T-shirt!
