And in bikes, power and if existant, motorization is what determines speed.
Speed limits are easy to force by GPS position.
If you're relying on GPS speed limiting, you've already failed at designing a safe roadway. It's a bandaid at best. Besides, how are you supposed to enforce the usage of GPS speed limiting on every bike? Regular bikes are just as capable of significantly exceeding, say, a 15mph (25kph) speed limit as e-bikes. It doesn't make sense technically, logistically, or politically in the vast majority of places.
