That is what looks like a stupidly over-specified, hence unecessarily expensive, and unweidy device. Some US Police forces use electrically assisted bikes in downtown areas with great success:they were offered to the UK government over a decade ago but they were rejected as being too powerful were motorcycles by Construction & Use definitions. These were cheap to buy, cheap to run, ecologically sound,practical, but our Government wouldn't adapt the laws.Instead our police use very expensive mountain bikes, I know what the Police pay for them.
