| >So if you go into the parameters of the onboard computer (legal e-bike) and change it from 15.5mph to 20mph pedal assisted,what is that classified as. My e-bike won't let me do this, but I guess some do, and also you can buy kits or adjust other stuff to fool the speed reader. My insurer for my bike specially says if I alter the power/speed in any way that measn it's not an e-bike any more my insurance is invalid. And AI says: Under UK law, if you alter your e-bike so the motor assists you past 15.5 mph (25 km/h), the cycle ceases to be an Electrically Assisted Pedal Cycle (EAPC). Instead, it is legally reclassified as a light motor vehicle (moped or motorcycle). Riding it on public roads or cycle paths without meeting motor vehicle regulations means you commit multiple motoring offences: |
