EAPC

Electrically Assisted Pedal Cycles (EAPCs) don’t need to be taxed, registered or insured as long as they meet some basic requirements. The electric bike must have pedals fitted that can be used to propel it and the motor should not be able to propel the bike when it is travelling more than 15.5mph (25kph). There is a maximum motor power output of no more than 250 watts.

In addition to the above, the bike must visibly display the power output or manufacturer of the motor OR the battery’s voltage or maximum speed of the bike.
