Electric Bicycles
Naturally, we want customers who buy through bol to continue to do so - and so it is important to offer them a reliable and safe range together. Therefore, additional sales conditions apply to certain product groups and in some cases, there is a brand policy for selective distribution. Find out whether this also applies to your range on this page.
If you want to offer electric bicycles via bol.com, you have to comply with the European legislation that applies to electric bikes.
European legislation
Two-wheelers sold must comply with EU Regulation 168/2013. (Electric) bicycles are excluded from this legislation. However, not every electric bicycle is actually considered an electric bicycle. Read below to see the criteria by which the bicycle is assessed.
Exclusion criteria
Whether a two-wheeler is considered an electric bicycle or a moped is determined by 3 criteria. The two-wheeler is classified as an electric bicycle if the following conditions are met:
- The maximum speed of the bicycle does not exceed 25 kilometers per hour.
- The motor power of the bicycle is not greater than 250W.
- The bicycle does not have a throttle/hand throttle.
More information can be found in the assortment policy.
