All bicycles must be regulated and legal to ride on the road. That's why many
high end bicycles from major brands also come with a bell and a reflector when
they're sold (usually only in the box, then thrown out by the dealer), because
that's the regulation in Canada.
Who's to say someone wouldn't buy one of these and then just go ride it on the
Seawall? Regulations must encompass all riders regardless of their intent of
the bicycle.
IMO, Specialized did not to their due diligence before bringing Levo in and
could theoretically be slapped with fines and have to do a recall.
And when you finish your ride on Fromme and you're at Dempsey, but parked at
the lot on Fromme, are you going to walk your LSM back? So again, it must
conform to regulations.
