E-Bike Industry Day

NYCDOT aims to promote street and fire safety by establishing a program to replace substandard micromobility devices with e-bikes that meet standards specified in §20-610 of the New York City Administrative Code, which pertains to certification of compliance with safety standards related to the e-bikes' electrical systems. To develop such a program, NYCDOT is looking to better understand the product specifications of mobility equipment available in the market that meets the following criteria:

1. Devices must be class 1 or class 2 e-bikes, as defined by §102-C of the Vehicle and Traffic Law.

1. E-bikes and their batteries must be certified pursuant to §20-610 of the Administrative Code.

1. E-bikes must be durable and able to withstand the demands of use for commercial purposes, particularly delivery or courier services.

Event participants are invited to showcase up to three e-bikes with their respective batteries. At the event, participants would be expected to:

1. Bring specification sheets for all relevant electric e-bike and battery models.

1. Bring proof of certification of all relevant e-bike models by an accredited testing laboratory for compliance with Underwriters Laboratories (UL) standard 2849.

1. Bring proof of certification of all relevant storage battery models by an accredited testing laboratory for compliance with Underwriters Laboratories (UL) standard 2271.

1. Bring a physical model of at least one e-bike without its battery.

In addition to e-bikes manufacturers, NYCDOT is seeking to engage companies capable of assisting local government entities in purchasing, storing, and transporting e-bikes and e-bike batteries, in compliance with U.S. Department of Transportation's (DOT) Hazardous Materials Regulations (HMR; 49 C.F.R., Parts 171-180).
