  2. 15.5mph. Top speed.
  3. 3.7mph. Walk mode feature.

Meet those three and UK law calls it an Electrically Assisted Pedal Cycle (EAPC) — treated the same as any bike in any shed in the country. No driving licence. No road tax. No compulsory insurance. No CBT, no test, no waiting. Every cycle lane and bus lane open to you.

Everything a moped gives you. Nothing it takes.

Three ways your week changes from the day it arrives — with the numbers to back each one.

  • Just get on and go

    No test to book, no L-plates, no lessons, no waiting for a birthday. If you're 14 or over, the road is already yours. As a fully compliant EAPC, the SX-250 is road-legal UK-wide with no driving licence, CBT, road tax, MOT or compulsory insurance. Insurance is not required, but you can pick up cover for theft and damage with the bike if you want it.

    £0 / year Licensing, tax and compulsory insurance
  • Forget the forecourt

    No fuel stops on cold mornings, no season tickets, no renewal letters. Charge overnight from an ordinary socket and wake up to a full charge, every day. A full charge takes you 40–50 miles, and five thousand miles a year is about £19 of electricity — the entire bill, because there is no road tax, no insurance premium and no MOT. The same year in a petrol car is about £1,739.

    ~17p / charge Off-peak, from any 3-pin plug
  • Feel safe out there

    You sit tall, drivers see you, and you always know what's behind you. Riding in traffic feels calm, not brave. That confidence comes from motorcycle-grade components, built to EN 15194 — with an alarm and immobiliser fitted as standard, for your safety and security.

Amazing service. Ordered and delivered within 7/8 days. Fast delivery and perfect tutorial on how to use the features by the delivery guy. I believe it was Nick, I might be wrong, but he was a legend in updating me with timing of delivery to showing me all the main features and a test ride.

Straight answers

The questions people ask before they buy one — answered without the hedging.

Do I need a licence to ride an Eskuta SX-250?
No. It is an EAPC — an electrically assisted pedal cycle — which UK law treats as a bicycle. No driving licence, no CBT, no test.
Is the SX-250 road legal in the UK?
Yes, on roads and on cycle infrastructure. It meets the EAPC rules: 250W rated motor, assistance limited to 15.5 mph, and pedals that must be turning for the motor to assist.
Do I need insurance or road tax?
Neither is required by law. Many owners insure theirs against theft, which is a separate choice from vehicle insurance.
Can I ride it in cycle lanes and bus lanes?
Yes. Because it is legally a pedal cycle it can use cycle lanes, cycle paths and bus lanes wherever bicycles are permitted.
How fast does it go?
The motor assists up to 15.5 mph, the legal limit for an EAPC. You can pedal faster downhill, exactly as on any bicycle.
Do I have to pedal?
Yes. Pedals are one of the three things that make it an EAPC — alongside a 250W continuous rated motor and assistance that stops adding at 15.5 mph — the bike keeps going, it just will not go faster on the motor. The pedals must be turning for the motor to help, which is the difference between this and the throttle-only machines being seized.
How far does it go on one charge?
Up to 50 miles, depending on rider weight, terrain, assist level and temperature.
How much does it cost to charge?
About 17p a full charge off-peak — under half a penny a mile. That is the entire running cost — there is no fuel, road tax, MOT or compulsory insurance to add to it.
How old do I have to be?
14 is the minimum age to ride an EAPC in the UK.
Do I need a helmet?
Not by law, as it is a bicycle. We would recommend one anyway — and we can supply one with your bike, so just ask.
Where is it built and serviced?
Designed and assembled in Nuneaton, Warwickshire. Servicing and repairs happen at your location wherever possible — a bike only comes back to us if the fault is a serious one. We hold a large stock of parts on site in Warwickshire.
How heavy is it?
54kg net weight, battery included, with a low step-through frame so it can be walked and stored without lifting.

Running a fleet?

Leasing, bulk pricing, servicing contracts and rider training. Most operators find it costs less per mile than whatever they run now.
