Which classes: Probably Class 1-3 under the county's general rule, but the mountain-bike pages don't address e-bikes.
The rules
Dakota County's general bicycling rule allows legal e-bikes wherever bikes are allowed, but its mountain-bike and Lebanon Hills pages say nothing about e-bikes on singletrack. Trails close when wet or during thaw and for deer hunts.
What the official source says:
Electric-assist or pedal-assist bicycles are allowed wherever normal bicycles are allowed as long as they meet the definition in Minnesota Statute 169.011, Subdivision 27
