TL;DR

New York City is cracking down on fast e-bikes by sending cease-and-desist letters to about 40 online retailers, including Amazon and Walmart, demanding they stop selling e-bikes and scooters that don’t meet city rules; penalties can reach $2,000 per violation, focusing on Class 3 bikes that exceed the 25 mph limit, while online marketplaces complicate enforcement; Amazon says it is reviewing the listed products and will cooperate with authorities.
