Are you sure? I know that you can ride them without them, but I thought you had to sell them with them if it was intended that the bike was to be used on the road. If someone would like to point me to the relevant legislation though, I'd be most interested.
Either way, one could certainly argue that any bike that doesn't conform to British Standards is "dangerous" and I would imagine that a court would probably be sympathetic to this way of thinking in a libel case.
