Officers patrolling St Peter’s Street in Derby last night seized an illegally modified e-bike capable of travelling over twice the legal speed limit for such vehicles.
The bike, which had been altered to reach speeds exceeding 31mph (50kph), is now classified as a motorcycle under UK law due to its high performance. The legal speed limit for e-bikes in the UK is capped at 15mph, meaning the seized vehicle was travelling at more than double the permitted speed.
