Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask His Majesty's Government what consideration they have given to regulating the sale of electric bike converter kits rated at over 250 watts, given that a vehicle with this rating would no longer be classed as an electric bike, but rather a moped or motorcycle.

Various vehicles which are not legal to use on UK roads can be legally imported into the UK for off-road use. E-bikes which do not comply with Electrically Assisted Pedal Cycles (EAPC) regulations would fall into this category.
