As far as I'm aware they're classed as bycycles, they are a good number of them here in Las Palmas, you don't need a helmet, licence or insurance.

Hi Manchesteral,
If they are in same category as E-bikes where assistance is limited to 25kmph......... :?:

" you don't need a helmet, licence or insurance"............need a helmet for cycles out side of towns......on this side of the country.

Just spent a week in Gran Canaria................some great cycling especially in the Central area...Santa Lucia

You may find some info in the following............heavy reading....... :(

All my best learning experiences start with a problem I need to solve.
