Which e-bikes are illegal in the UK?

  • The motor can propel the bike above 15.5 mph1
  • Continuous rated power above 250 W1
  • No pedals that can propel it1
  • A twist-and-go throttle without vehicle approval1

If your e-bike isn't an EAPC it is a motorcycle or moped: it must be registered and taxed, you need a driving licence, a motorcycle helmet and insurance, and you can only ride it on the road. Ridden uninsured, it can be seized by the police1.

What's changed, and what's coming

28 Jan 2025The Department for Transport consulted on raising the limit to 500 W and allowing throttles to 15.5 mph, then announced it would not go ahead with either3. The 250 W / 15.5 mph rules stand1.

Which e-bikes catch fire?

The London Fire Brigade's advice is to buy from a reputable seller, use the charger that came with the bike, and not charge it while you sleep or on an escape route6.

UK product recalls and safety reports are published by the Office for Product Safety and Standards. Every brand in the table above is searched there, and anything it finds is listed on the brand's page, word for word7.

Fire-related records for the brands on this page:

  • Engwe T14, OPSS product safety report 2601-0174, 30 Jan 2026: the regulator recorded “serious risk of fire”. Non-compliant plug and missing conformity documents; consignment rejected at the border and destroyed45.
  • Bluvall Folding electric bike (model Z01), as imported into the UK, OPSS product safety report 2510-0219, 10 Nov 2025: the regulator recorded “serious risk of fire”. OPSS found no evidence of sufficient battery protection or of UK conformity assessment, a speed above the legal maximum and a plug that didn't meet BS 1363; the import was rejected at the border and destroyed46.
  • Freesky 540E (Ranger), as imported into the UK, OPSS product safety report 2609-0013, 4 Sept 2026: the regulator recorded “no evidence that the product has been assessed using relevant UK conformity assessment procedures”. The Declaration of Conformity supplied did not match the product, and OPSS noted that without evidence of conformity it may be possible for it to overheat and catch fire; the import was rejected at the border47.
  • Velotric Tricycle (an e-trike, not one of the bikes above), OPSS product safety report 2509-0337, 21 Oct 2025: the regulator recorded “serious risk of fire”. The tricycle, battery and charger had not been through UK conformity assessment, with no technical documentation, missing labelling and a plug that didn't meet BS 1363; the import was rejected at the border48.

Other regulator records

Safety reports and recalls for the brands on this page that aren't about fire:

  • ADO Air 20 Ultra (2025), Air 20 Ultra (2026), Air 20 Pro, Air 20S, OPSS product safety report 2605-0026, 28 May 2026: the regulator recorded “serious risk of injuries”. A sharp edge in the folding mechanism could wear through the wiring insulation; the import was rejected at the border and destroyed. The report names the Air 20 Ultra, Air 20 Pro, Air Carbon and Air 20S without a model year49.
  • Brompton T Line (the non-electric titanium bike, made before 21 June 2024), OPSS product recall 2407-0119, 24 Dec 2024: the regulator recorded “risk of injuries”. The handlebar support and fork could become misaligned; the fix is retightening four steerer clamp bolts. It covers serial numbers up to 2406070001, not the Electric T Line50.
  • Brompton Electric (previous generation, serial numbers below 2111030089), OPSS product recall 2203-0521, 5 Apr 2022: the regulator recorded “risk of injuries”. An object trapped between the mudguard stay and tyre could stop the wheel suddenly. It covers bikes that hadn't already had the new mudguard stay fitted51.
  • Brompton P Line (non-electric, made 29 September 2021 to 30 March 2022), OPSS product recall 2206-0026, 6 Jun 2022: the regulator recorded “risk of injuries”. The front wheel nut's thread could be damaged during fitting, so the wheel might not secure to the fork; Brompton replaced the nuts52.
  • Decathlon Van Rysel RCR PRO Ultegra and Dura Ace road bikes (non-electric), OPSS product recall 2508-0206, 15 Oct 2025: the regulator recorded “serious risk of injuries”. The Swiss Side wheel rims could fail in use, on bikes sold from 1 August 2024 with DT Swiss ID wheel numbers of 2740000 or higher53.
  • Eskute C100 Plus, OPSS product safety report 2610-0010, 13 Oct 2026: the regulator recorded “serious risk of injuries”. It had an unfitted single-action throttle that let it run at up to 24.9 km/h without pedalling, and inadequate welds; the import was rejected at the border54.
  • Fiido T1 Pro, OPSS product recall 2409-0107, 15 Oct 2024: the regulator recorded “risk of electric shock”. A WN-07 travel adapter supplied with the T1 Pro Cargo did not meet UK plug standards; it was recalled from users, who were sent UK chargers55.
  • Heybike EC Compact City, OPSS product safety report 2508-0073, 23 Dec 2025: the regulator recorded “high risk of injuries”. The hydraulic rear brake can leak fluid and stop working; the import was rejected at the border56.
  • Orbea Orbea Optima e-bikes, model years 2019 and 2020, OPSS product recall 2607-0306, 11 Aug 2026: the regulator recorded “the welded joint in the middle of the frame may fail”. Bikes whose stamped frame code contains 19A are in the affected batch; the frame could break in use. Recalled from end users by Orbea UK57.
  • Orbea Orbea Avant H40, H50 and H45 XI road bikes (non-electric), OPSS product recall 2512-0265, 24 Dec 2025: the regulator recorded “the suspension forks can fail prematurely”. 2025-production Avant road bikes with carbon fork PN 50310000; the fork can crack, break or separate in use. Recalled from end users58.

Questions people ask

Which e-bikes are street legal in the UK?

Ones that meet the EAPC rules: 250 W continuous, no motor help above 15.5 mph, working pedals, rider 14 or over1. The table above shows which brands sell UK-spec bikes that are listed at those figures.

Is a 500 W or 750 W e-bike legal in the UK?

Not as an e-bike. Above 250 W continuous it is a moped or motorcycle in law and needs registering, taxing, insurance and a licence1. The government decided in January 2025 not to raise the limit3.

Are e-bikes with a throttle legal in the UK?

A bike that can be propelled up to 15.5 mph without pedalling needs vehicle approval1. Many UK-spec bikes have a walk-assist or start-assist button instead.

What if the bike says it can be unlocked?

An unlocked bike that assists above 15.5 mph is no longer an EAPC1. The table marks brands whose own pages advertise this.

What this page is, and isn't

This page is an analysis of published documents: the law and official guidance from GOV.UK and the Electrically Assisted Pedal Cycles Regulations, and what each brand publishes about its own bikes. It is not legal advice, and it is not an opinion on any brand or bike. Everything was checked on 23 October 2026, and every fact links to its source.

✓ Legal as listed means the brand's own published specification for that market sits inside the legal limits. It does not mean I have tested the bike or seen its certificates, unless the page says so. ? Can't confirm means a figure the law depends on isn't published, so it can't be confirmed either way. Paperwork counts which documents are public. It is not a safety rating.

Laws change, and cities and councils can add their own rules. Before you ride, check the official source.

Corrections. If you make one of these bikes and something here is wrong, send the document to hello@velorution.com. I'll re-check it within five working days and update the page.

How this site earns. Some “Visit store” buttons are affiliate links. If you buy, Velorution may earn a commission at no cost to you. A brand can't buy a better mark. A store button only appears where a bike is marked ✓, and never on a model with a regulator safety record from the last three years.
