>At a guess your bike outputs more power than is legal here.

From a brief look - no. Belgium says "4000 W 45 km/h limited "speed pedelecs", which are classed as mopeds for all requirements."

Mine has a 750W nominal motor, but seems to output around 1050W at peak.

4000 W? That sounds a little excessive :)

A typical s-pedelec is somewhere between 350 and 750 W nominal and with peaks of maybe twice that.

  • Yeah it's totally excessive, lol. That's just what wikipedia says about your country's laws. No idea if it's accurate, haha.
