Summary
Dutch police bust nine turbochargers for e-bikes—especially fatbikes—that illegally boost speeds from 25 to 80 kph by hacking the bike’s software. Parents are urged to check their kids’ bikes, as these hidden mods are becoming rampant and most riders don’t even know they’re there. With calls for license plates and crackdowns on illegal imports, lawmakers are scrambling to rein in a growing safety hazard on Dutch roads.
