E-Bikes vs E-Motorcycles: Parent Guide | Denver News

Colorado State Patrol warns parents: before buying electric bikes or scooters for kids, know the law—because breaking it can cost you big. E-bikes are pedal-assist, max 28 mph, no license needed, but helmets and age rules vary. E-motorcycles? They’re street-legal beasts with throttles, foot pegs, and speeds up to 60 mph—require license, registration, insurance, and riders must be 16+. Both are banned on highways and private property without permission. Educate your kids first—fines can hit your wallet, not theirs.
