@AbsolutelyNotAVelociraptor@_haha_oh_wow_ …you might already have one. I’m in the UK. We match the EU in that E-bike pedal assist is limited to 15.5mph/25kph. Here, anything higher speed than that or that doesn’t need pedalling is legally a moped or motorbike (depending on power) and has to follow those laws - helmet, licence, tax, number plate, on-road only. I assume Italy does something similar?

Yes, but in practice, even if the bike is sold while being legally compliant, the modifications are far to easy to make so anyone can do them.
Sure, if they catch one, there’s a huge fine, but there are so many that’s impossible to catch them all.
