| >Yes they are illegal e-bikes. 100% Not according to the law. Riders in the UK have been prosecuted for driving without insurance after modifying e-bikes with throttles or higher-powered motors that run without pedalling. Under UK law, modifying an e-bike beyond Electrically Assisted Pedal Cycle (EAPC) limits—such as exceeding 250W or enabling self-propulsion past 3.7 mph—reclassifies it as a motor vehicle, making third-party insurance legally mandatory on public roads |
