I've never operated an E-bike so I'm presuming that the throttle is similar to that on a motorcycle - twisting it changes the bike's speed. Does the clip then provide a means of locking the throttle at a desired speed?

The bike has cruise control plus 5 pre-set speeds. I typically use throttle to get started and change to one of these pre-sets. The bike has flattened all of the hills around me that used to confine me to the neighborhood when I rode my regular bike. Lectric did a great job engineering this eBike.

Rick,

I appreciate your attitude, and methodology when accomplishing a task. Your thumb-throttle control is one more example. Thanks for the idea.
