E-bikes: an evening discussion with Curbside Cycle & Community Bikeways

by Aaron Enchin
Date: February 10th 2026 
Time: 7-8pm
Location: Curbside Cycle - 412 BLoor St. West Toronto ON M5S 1X5
Join us for a lively evening of discussion about e-bikes! Why we love them and love to hate them. We want to see e-bike potential maximized, but how do we deal with the problems, including powerful, heavy, speeding e-bikes in bike lanes that intimidate other riders?

How should regulation distinguish between pedal-assist e-bikes and moped- and motorcycle-like e-bikes? Speed? Weight? Power? Acceleration? Or something else?

Our panel of experts will focus on e-bike technologies, existing regulation and regulation from other jurisdictions, batteries, the food courier business, and children on e-bikes.

The panel will be the following:

MC: Dani, Retailer Perspective: Aaron Enchin (Curbside Cycle), E-bike batteries: Lance Le Roux (Community Bikeways) E-bike regulatory regime: Albert Koehl (lawyer).

Space is VERY limited, so make sure to RSVP here!
