AIUi anything with a throttle that goes over 5mph is illegal (unless licensed). With the exception of those rental e scooters that are now allowed (but still cut out at 15mph ish)
So you have to pedal, and the power has to cut out at 15/16mph. And there are watt / torque limitations as you’ve mentioned
I thought the legal maximum continuous power is 250W for electric power assisted cycles (BS EN 15194) cutting out when 25 kmh (15.5mph) is reached.
