Summary
Logan Municipal Code § 10.68.010 defines an e-bike by its hardware: a motor of not more than 750 watts that cannot push the bicycle past 20 miles per hour and cuts out when the brakes are applied. Logan prints no Class 1, 2 or 3 tiers, so one definition and one set of riding rules cover every e-bike.
A vehicle having two (2) tandem wheels or two (2) parallel wheels and one (1) forward wheel, any two of which are not less than twelve (12) ... inches in diameter, that is designed to be operated by human power with ... the assistance of an electric motor that has a power output of not more ... than seven hundred fifty (750) watts that: (i) is incapable of ... propelling the vehicle at a speed of more than twenty (20) miles per hour; and (ii) disengages or ceases to function when the vehicle's brakes are applied. An E-bike is not a motor vehicle for purposes of this Chapter.
Full Breakdown
In Logan City, Utah, Chapter 10.68 (Bicycles and Micromobility Devices) governs e-bikes. Section 10.68.010 calls an e-bike an "electric power-assisted bicycle": two tandem wheels, or two parallel wheels and one forward wheel, each at least twelve inches in diameter, with an electric motor of not more than 750 watts that is incapable of propelling the vehicle faster than 20 miles per hour and that disengages when the brakes are applied. The same section states that an e-bike is not a motor vehicle for purposes of the chapter. The chapter sorts e-bikes by these power and speed limits, not by class label.
Once a bike fits that definition it is a micromobility device and takes the chapter's riding rules. Under § 10.68.050 a rider on a roadway, public parking lot or bike lane has the same rights and responsibilities as a motor vehicle operator, while a rider on a sidewalk or trail has the responsibilities of a pedestrian. Section 10.68.150 allows riding on sidewalks and in crosswalks except where traffic control devices, sidewalk markings or city approved signage create dismount zones in high-volume pedestrian areas, where the rider must dismount and walk the device. Section 10.68.130 sends riders into a bike lane where one exists and permits micromobility devices on shared use pathways unless City signage prohibits them. At night, between one hour after sunset and one hour before sunrise, § 10.68.110 requires a white front light visible from five hundred feet and a red rear reflector. Section 10.68.040 offers free registration with the Logan City Police Department for bicycles and e-bikes, recommended but not mandatory, with a decal and a database used to recover stolen bikes.
Violations & Fines
A conviction under any provision of Chapter 10.68 is an infraction under § 10.68.200, and § 10.68.190 separately makes inattentive, careless or reckless riding an infraction. Section 10.68.210 bars anyone from knowingly modifying a micromobility device to change its speed capability, which matters for an e-bike held to the 20 miles per hour ceiling. Section 10.68.020 makes it unlawful for a parent or guardian to knowingly permit a child to ride in violation of the chapter. The Logan City Police Department enforces these sections.
