To legally ride an e-bike in NYS it must be purchased from an approved manufacturer and registered as either a Class B (30 mph) or Class C (20 mph) scooter. You need a driver's license to operate a Class B vehicle. To learn if a scooter is approved one must call the Tech Center in Albany. A Class A scooter is a motorcycle and one can get a VIN for a home built custom bike that meets inspection. Lime e-bikes are available for rent.
