Hi Emma,
What's your source for this please? I've always had a plan in my head to add e-assist onto my quad, but when I contacted the DfT 6 years ago when I built it for clarification on the rules, it wasn't allowed.

the rules for quads and the weight limit , together with throttle less pedelec systems came into force in July last year, there is a thread in this forum , Pedelecs forum and l believe on the atomic zombie on the changes , googling should find you the answers , no where near a pc for a couple of days , so cannot help any more but if you can't find it will search for it next week for you .
regards Emma
