City of London Police seize more illegal e-bikes than any other force with one modified to hit 70mph
Briefly

"The number of modified e-bikes on the capital's roads is soaring with some used by criminal gangs mugging Londoners for their mobile phones. This rise presents a significant danger not only to the victims of these crimes but also to pedestrians, who may not be able to hear these fast-moving vehicles approaching, creating potential accidents on the street."
"During an operation by the City of London police cycling team outside London Liverpool Street railway station, officers took only a few minutes to apprehend a rider on an illegal e-bike. The bike had a motor that exceeded the legal limit, with worn-out tyres and dangerous wiring, which highlights how quickly these dangerous modifications can put both the riders and others in jeopardy."
