You missed the legal definition of "assisted bicycle", which allows people without motor cycle licences to ride motorised cycles subject to certain restrictions on performance. There is a difference, it's just that as seasoned cyclists we tend to dismiss the assisted bicycle out of hand as being the worst of both worlds - heavy, expensive, and slow.
