Class-Based Regulatory Framework (General Overview)
Certain Lite-EV products may fall under a class-based regulatory framework recognized by many U.S. states, including California. Classifications are determined by how a product operates, not by appearance, marketing terms, or hardware alone.

The legal classification of any product depends on its active configuration at the time of operation and applicable state or local laws.
Configuration and Legal Use
Some products may be manufactured with multiple operating modes or configurable settings.
The presence of multiple modes or settings does not mean that all configurations are legal for use on public streets, bike lanes, or shared paths.
Legal classification and permitted use depend on active settings and local regulations.
Customers are solely responsible for ensuring that their operation of any product complies with all applicable laws and regulations.
Dealer Non-Modification Policy
562 e-Bikes does not proactively modify, unlock, alter, or reprogram speed, power, or controller settings.
Any adjustments, if performed, are non-performance related and are:
- Limited in scope
- Performed only where legally permitted
- Intended solely to address a specific compliance concern or a documented customer request.
Such adjustments do not represent a general obligation to reconfigure products from their factory default state. Products are otherwise sold as provided by the manufacturer.
Use Limitations
Certain product configurations or settings may not be legal for use on public streets, bike lanes, or multi-use paths.
Such configurations are intended for use only where permitted by law. This website does not encourage, promote, or authorize unlawful operation of any product.
