CPW says Class 1 and 2 eBikes are allowed on multi-use trails open to bikes. A parks pass is generally required. Older Jeffco and Lakewood wording mentions only Class 1, so confirm with the park.

Apex Park is managed by Jeffco and has 9.5 miles of trails, according to a search listing, and it is known for mountain biking. Its trails are natural surface, so under Jeffco policy only Class 1 eBikes belong there. Class 2 is for paved trails, and Class 3 is for roads and parking lots where motor vehicles may travel. Jeffco classifies eBikes as motorized on BLM and USFS lands. Read the Jeffco eBike policy before riding.

eBike rules in Colorado

Colorado defines an electrical assisted bicycle in C.R.S. 42-1-102 as a two or three wheeled bike with fully operable pedals and an electric motor not over 750 watts. There are three classes. Class 1 gives assist only while you pedal and stops assisting at 20 mph. Class 2 can assist without pedaling and also stops at 20 mph. Class 3 assists only while you pedal and stops at 28 mph. A bike that has been modified out of every class, or that is built or sold to be easily configured past the class limits, does not count as an e-bike.

Under C.R.S. 42-4-1412, e-bike riders have the same rights and duties as drivers, subject to local ordinances. Class 1 and 2 e-bikes may use a bike or pedestrian path where bicycles are authorized. A local authority may prohibit them there. Class 3 e-bikes are not allowed on those paths unless the path is within a street or highway or the local authority permits it. Riders under 16 may not ride Class 3, though they can be passengers on a bike designed for passengers. HB25-1197 was signed May 28, 2025 and took effect Aug 6, 2025. It adds seller disclosures and multiple mode e-bike rules. From Jan 1, 2027, multiple-mode labels must show the highest class or each class.

Colorado has no statewide helmet rule for Class 1 or 2 riders. Class 3 operators and passengers under 18 must wear a CPSC or ASTM bicycle helmet with a chin strap. Compliant e-bikes need no license or registration. Labels must show class, top assisted speed and wattage, and must be updated after any modification (C.R.S. 42-4-221). Under HB25-1197, falsely labeling a non-e-bike as an e-bike is a deceptive trade practice. For more detail, see our guide to Colorado eBike laws.
