Limiting Mid Drive to Class 2

Hi all,

I'm thinking about converting a Trek Marlin 5 into an ebike with a 750w Bafang mid drive motor. I will use this bike mostly around town but I want to take it camping and ride some easy trails with it, also. I'm assuming I can, with programming, limit the top speed to 20mph. Would doing this then make this a Class 2 ebike and therefore legal on State and National Park trails?

TIA,
Eric
