Illegal e-bikes: how they are hunted and how they get away
"Souped up to reach speeds of up to 70mph and causing havoc, could new powers help police crack down on them?"

Shooting Airtag arrow heads using crossbows into their legs, would make them easier to track - wish they'd do that to the Surron riders in my area, there's oodles of those dudes. Or a flying GPS tracker octopus robot, which grabs on and won't let go? Launch an Airtag robotic boa constrictor, squeezing till they stop and topple over? Fire taser nets at their heads using drones? A swarm of kamikaze drones throwing themselves under their front tyres would knock them off.

But frame has to be custom proprietary?
And no mention of price, so usually means exxxpensive!

Looks nice n cute, but it can't get up Sandy Hill in Alabama, so no use. :-/
Any guesses as to how few Nm this single speed bike really has?
Or did they limit its speed to 25kph by reducing Current?
