To amend the Consumer Product Safety Act to provide that low-speed electric bicycles are consumer products subject to such Act.

This law classifies low-speed electric bicycles (e-bikes) as consumer products rather than motor vehicles, placing them under the jurisdiction of the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) instead of the Department of Transportation. It defines a low-speed electric bicycle as a two- or three-wheeled vehicle with fully operable pedals and an electric motor of less than 750 watts that limits the top speed to 20 mph on a paved surface.

For the average citizen, this means e-bikes are regulated similarly to traditional bicycles regarding safety standards and manufacturing requirements, rather than being subject to the more complex registration, insurance, and equipment rules required for cars or motorcycles. Additionally, the law establishes a uniform federal safety standard that takes precedence over more restrictive state laws, ensuring that e-bikes meeting these federal criteria can be sold and operated consistently across the country.
