Recently, the popular OUXI V8 fatbike was declared illegal by the European Union due to serious safety risks and violation of legislation. This model does not meet the essential requirements for electric bikes, making its use on public roads a major hazard. In this article, we explain why the OUXI V8 fatbike has been declared illegal and why the KOBRA Fatbike is the right and safe alternative.
OUXI V8: Unsafe and Illegal!
The OUXI V8 fatbike is powered by a motor with too much power and often exceeds the maximum speed of 25 km/h allowed by European regulations for electric bikes. Useful to know: Even when it does not exceed the speed of 25 km/h, a motor power of 750w is not allowed and therefore illegal. These exceedances make the model illegal for use on public roads. In addition, the OUXI V8 lacks important safety features such as reliable brakes and adequate lighting, which increases the risk of accidents and injuries.
The EU has established strict rules to ensure that electric bikes can be used safely. The OUXI V8 simply does not comply with these rules, leading to the decision to declare the model illegal. Users risk not only high fines and confiscation of the bike, but also their own safety and that of others. In the process, they ride around uninsured, with potentially disastrous consequences in case of (injury) damage to themselves or third parties!
Why the KOBRA Fatbike is the Right Alternative
