Modifying E-Bikes? Think Before You Speed | Tucson News

Tweak your e-bike’s software for more speed? Think again. Arizona’s e-bike laws are clear: Class 1 & 2 max out at 20 mph, Class 3 at 28. Beyond that? You’re in legal gray zone — not a bike, not a motorcycle. Shops won’t touch mods for safety and legal reasons. Even stock e-bikes must follow traffic rules — unsafe riding gets flagged. Modified bikes may no longer qualify as bicycles, risking fines or citations. Stick to factory specs or consult a pro. Your ride’s safety and legality depend on it.
