2. SAFETY & GENERAL TIPS
2.1. S T R E E T L E G A L IT Y
•
Electric bikes or conversion kits considered street legal under Canadian and US Federal Electric
Bike Regulations are viewed as bicycles, not motorized vehicles and do not require an
insurance license plate or driver’s license. It is important to check your province/state, county,
and local laws to ensure that your ebike complies with local regulation provisions
•
ONTIME ebikes general settings comply with 28mph max assisted speed, 750W max
mechanical power, equipped with brake cut-off switches and options to control assist power
while riding. These provisions suffice all USA/Canada federal and provincial regulations. Parks
and other privately managed properties might have different rules. ONTIME ebikes are
considered ebike Class III in the US
•
Please note street legal does not mean cyclists can ride an electric bike or trike on bicycle
pathways and trails that restrict the use of electric assist bikes
•
There may be components such as throttle that have a different legal definition depending on
the province/state you are located in. Because of this we have provided controller settings that
can adapt to a variety of specifications
•
By modifying an electric bike or conversion kit’s settings, upgrading a component’s capacity,
such as the controller or motor, the product may lose its street legality even if modifications are
done by a professional. If at any point ONTIME Drive Systems is asked to implement upgrades,
we will notify you if the modifications exceed street legal limits
•
ONTIME is not liable for the legality of use of products in various locations
Your insurance policy may not provide coverage for accidents related to the use of an
ebike. Make sure to contact your insurance company to know about your coverage.
