There are four classifications of e bikes. Three are tentatively allowed on designated bike trails.
Are you talking bike trails or paths? There is a difference and no, trails in places like Colorado are generally only going to allow class 1 e-bikes on them, not the 3 designations you are referring to. One must check the regulations first because even though Colorado may have many places that allow class 1 e-bikes on trails, certain places, Boulder, do not allow ANY e-bikes on trails. This is just one example, every state may very.
One must first verify if it is legal to ride an e-bike on a trail and even a path here in the US.
BTW, OP, Trek and many other major cycling companies are starting to make e-bikes.
