The short answer

Outside the e-bike definition in 4 of 40 evaluated jurisdictions

Of the 40 jurisdictions with a verified electric-bicycle definition, the cited 2026 configuration fits an e-bike class in 0, falls outside it in 4 (1 of them into a named non-e-bike category), and is unclear in 36. 11 aren’t verified here yet, so they aren’t evaluated.

The verdict at a glance

Where this exact Lectric lands, state by state

Each state is shaded by this machine’s verdict — fits a class, outside the definition, a gray area, or not yet evaluated. Tap a state to jump straight to its cited row below.

01 / What it is

The machine, in the manufacturer’s own terms

Lectric calls the XPress2 (750 Step-Thru (2026 U.S. configuration)) a electric commuter bicycle. The manufacturer programs and labels it as a Class 3 electric bicycle. A manufacturer’s class label is shown here, but it never bypasses the spec check below.

Every figure traces to a fetched source

The facts that decide the verdict

Motor — nominal (rated)
750 W — manufacturer term: “750W rear hub motor”Product page: "750W rear hub motor" with "1310W peak".Lectric XPress2 (750 Step-Thru) — official product page
Motor — peak / maximum
1310 W — manufacturer term: “peak power”Product page: "1310W peak".Lectric XPress2 (750 Step-Thru) — official product page
Vehicle top speed
28 mph — manufacturer term: “top speed”Product page: 28 mph top speed as a Class 1, 2, or 3 e-bike. This page checks the top, Class-3 setting.Lectric XPress2 (750 Step-Thru) — official product page
Pedal-assist cutoff
None / not publishedThe product page lists a single 28 mph top speed and does not separate a pedal-assist cutoff from the throttle. The verified 28 mph vehicle top speed is used instead.Unverified — no fetched source states this.
Throttle-only cutoff
None / not publishedThe product page does not state a separate throttle-only cutoff; it lists one 28 mph top speed for the bike.Unverified — no fetched source states this.
Throttle present
YesProduct page: "ergonomic below-the-bar trigger throttle" (thumb-operated).Lectric XPress2 (750 Step-Thru) — official product page
Fully operable pedals
YesProduct page: pedalled drivetrain (Shimano Altus 8-speed) with a switchable torque/cadence sensor that reads pedaling.Lectric XPress2 (750 Step-Thru) — official product page
Manufacturer-claimed class
Class 3Lectric markets the XPress2 as a selectable Class 1, 2, or 3 e-bike; 3 is its top class and the one checked here. A manufacturer class label never bypasses the spec check.Lectric XPress2 (750 Step-Thru) — official product page

Throttle user-removable
NoIntegrated trigger throttle; removability not addressed on the fetched product page.Unverified — no fetched source states this.

Unlockable / app-configurable
YesClass is rider-selectable across Class 1, 2, and 3. Class is therefore configuration-dependent — this page checks the top, Class-3 setting.Lectric XPress2 (750 Step-Thru) — official product page

Nominal (rated) and peak power are kept separate — never merged into the statutory motor rating. Facts marked Unverified could not be confirmed from a fetched manufacturer source and are excluded from the per-state defeating-fact logic. Classification facts (750W rated / 1310W peak motor, thumb-trigger throttle, five riding modes running as Class 1/2/3, 28 mph top speed, switchable torque/cadence sensor on an 8-speed drivetrain, 27.5" x 2.1" tires, two wheels) taken from Lectric's official XPress2 750 product page. The page gives one 28 mph top speed and does not separate pedal-assist and throttle cutoffs, so those are left unverified. This is a multi-class / rider-selectable e-bike: this page checks the top, Class-3 setting. Re-verify monthly.

03 / Why it is — or isn’t — an e-bike

The definitional facts that decide it

Every state’s electric-bicycle definition turns on the same handful of facts: operable pedals, motor power, and how fast the motor keeps assisting. This machine’s cited figures — a throttle, motor assistance to 28 mph, and fully operable pedals — are run against each state’s electric-bicycle definition below. Where a state isn’t verified here yet, the row says so rather than guessing.
