Ohio eBike laws and route permission

R.C. 4511.01 defines an electric bicycle as a class 1, class 2, or class 3 electric bicycle. Each class has fully operable pedals and an electric motor of less than 750 watts, the statute's phrase "less than seven hundred fifty watts." Class 1 assists only while the rider is pedaling and ceases at 20 miles per hour. Class 2 may assist whether or not the rider is pedaling and is not capable of providing assistance when the bicycle reaches 20 miles per hour. Class 3 assists only while the rider is pedaling and ceases at 28 miles per hour.

R.C. 4511.522 requires a permanent label naming the class, the top assisted speed, and the motor wattage. Class 1 and class 3 motors must cease when the rider stops pedaling. A class 2 motor must cease when the rider applies the brakes or releases or activates a switch. Every class 3 electric bicycle must have a speedometer that displays speed in miles per hour.

R.C. 4511.522 says no person under sixteen years of age shall operate a class 3 electric bicycle. A person under sixteen may ride as a passenger on a class 3 electric bicycle designed to accommodate passengers. No person shall operate or be a passenger on a class 3 electric bicycle unless wearing a protective helmet that meets Consumer Product Safety Commission or ASTM standards.

R.C. 4511.522 permits a class 1 or class 2 electric bicycle on a bicycle-only path or shared-use path unless the authority with control over the path prohibits that use. No person shall operate a class 3 electric bicycle on such a path unless the path is within or adjacent to a highway or the authority authorizes that use. None of the three classes may be operated on a path intended primarily for mountain biking, hiking, equestrian use, or another single-track or natural-surface trail historically reserved for nonmotorized use, unless that authority authorizes the use. Trail access remains manager-specific.

Before leaving a Stark County shop for a test ride, carry water, the bike key, a charged phone, and the route manager’s current notice. A portable power station for a Stark County trailhead base is an optional charging accessory, not permission to plug in or a substitute for conservative range planning. Ask the Stark County business where charging is actually permitted rather than treating an outlet as part of the directory listing.
