Talking Hello from British Columbia

Hi all,

New to the motor powered bicycles. Thinking about powering up my mountain bike with front suspension. Sounds like a great idea...Although, I am concerned about the legality of it as generally I like to be law o biding.

Cheers

Welcome to the forum. Check your local local laws before ordering a motor. Engine size determines legality in a lot of places. Cheers

Welcome...Just look up ICBC insurance...It's all there in all it's glory...Bunch of putz's....Next to impossible to be legal with a happy time! I heard from a relible sorce (cop) that 8 bikes were confiscated last summer and they faced fines of up to 8 grand. The 2 happys I just bought will be off road only. I'm working on a solution to get around the laws here (gray zone). Watch for my company launching this spring and you will see whats up.(POPS CHOPS) Until then it's top secret...Sorry...POPS
