2025 Electric Bike (E-Bike) Regulation Updates: What Riders Need to Know




As electric bikes (e-bikes) continue to transform urban and recreational transportation, U.S. states have rolled out new regulations for 2025. Below is a breakdown of key updates for ebike riders.

Federal E-Bike Classification System (Still in Effect)
All states use the 3-class system for electric bicycles:

Class 1: Pedal-assist only, max 20 mph (e.g., Jasionbike’s commuter models EB5R).
Class 2: Throttle-assisted, max 20 mph.
Class 3: Pedal-assist, max 28 mph (requires speed limiter compliance).

Notable State Updates for 2025
California
  • New: Helmets mandatory for all Class 3 e-bike riders (including adults).
  • Manufacturers must install non-removable speed limiters.
  • Electric bikes banned on natural trails in state parks.

New York
  • License plates required for all ebikes ($25 fee; affects delivery fleets).
  • Jasionbike Pro series now includes state-approved reflectors for NYC compliance.

Texas
  • No helmet laws, but Class 3 e-bikes restricted to roads ≤35 mph.
  • New tax credit: 15% off electric bikes (up to $1,500; includes Jasionbike purchases).

Colorado
Class 1 electric bikes permitted on federal land trails.

    I purchased this Jasion EB5 battery will not charge rim is worp forks does not fit the rim only goes 14.5mph and I thought I was getting a great product but turns out to be useless and I can’t return or exchange it. Don’t buy this e-bike it’s a waste of money and time. Not one person was able to help. I was told to take it to a bicycle repair shop
