Police seize modified mechanically propelled mountain bike in Wisbech for having no insurance




A mountain bike with a battery added to it has been seized by police this afternoon.

The Wisbech Neighbourhood Policing Team was on patrol in the town today when they seized a mountain bike after finding a battery pack had been placed on it, making it fall under the ‘mechanically propelled vehicle (MPV)’ category.

The bike chain had also been removed, so the pedals were unable to be used.

Officers seized the MPV for no insurance, and it has now been passed to the team's Vehicle Examination Unit for further examination.
