    DFT consultation on increase of 250W limit to 500W

    We will follow what has already happened in USA. There will be plenty of fat wheeled mopeds all over pavements. More power will mean heavier bikes and faster acceleration - more risk for children on shared paths. Watch some YouTube vids from USA. They almost all use fat mopeds.

    DFT consultation on increase of 250W limit to 500W

    500W rated motor and full throttle is what it is - a moped. Why make an effort to disguise it as a bike? I think a new moped class would be a much better solution with a quick and simple registration.

    DFT consultation on increase of 250W limit to 500W

    With no legal limit on power provided by controller I see no need for 500W rated motors on the market. One can cross Alps on bike with 250W rating, so why one would need a 500W? It is nothing more than a cosmetic change in desperate attempt by government to show that they are trying to do...

    DFT consultation on increase of 250W limit to 500W

    After consideration I will vote against both proposals. They will probably do what they planned anyway.

    DFT consultation on increase of 250W limit to 500W

    I agree, chances for that are very slim considering they can't even produce proposal in logical and consistent way. It is a part of pre election brexit we can do it show off called "smarter regulation to grow the economy"...

    DFT consultation on increase of 250W limit to 500W

    There are some inconsistencies in language they use that suggest they don't fully understand what exactly they are trying to change. That is what worries me. For example here: " Consultation description The government proposes 2 changes to the regulations on electrically assisted pedal cycles...

    DFT consultation on increase of 250W limit to 500W

    There is nothing about peak power in proposed changes. They want to raise rated limit from 250W to 500W.

    DFT consultation on increase of 250W limit to 500W

    That is not what is written on DfT web page. " Proposed changes The government proposes 2 changes to existing regulations: to amend the legal definition of how EAPCs are classified so that the maximum continuous rated power of the electric motor must not exceed 500 watts instead of 250 watts...

    Ebike and scooter ban

    Those kids, they don't ride e-bikes. They all ride fat wheel motorbikes. Maybe it is a good thing we have legal age 14 here in UK.

    I think I've found my next bike

    That is a massive bike. I like it, but I prefer not to check the RRP as I might like it less.
