The deadline to respond to the government’s consultation on proposed changes to the e-bike regulations is 11:59pm today. We have teamed up with the Association of Cycle Traders to urge the UK cycle industry to oppose the current Government consultation to double the permissible power of e-bikes and remove the need for pedalling. We’re urging the industry and end users to respond by email and oppose these changes, to safeguard the e-bike category. https://lnkd.in/ePg3sm5X
