Easy Motion Bikes USA (DBA BH Bikes USA) Corporation (BH Bikes) is a St. Charles, Missouri, based company that manufactures electric bicycles. BH Bikes sold or offered for sale electric bicycles in California, from July 2015 to January 2019.

This case was the result of an investigation performed by California Energy Commission (CEC) staff. CEC's investigation and testing process identified that BH Bikes was manufacturing and offering for sale electric bicycles containing small battery charger systems that failed the marking requirement and were not certified to the Modernized Appliance Efficiency Database System (MAEDbS).

To settle this matter, BH Bikes executed a Settlement Agreement with CEC on February 13, 2020, for $20,000.00. The penalty monies are deposited into the Appliance Efficiency Enforcement Subaccount established by SB 454 of 2011 (Pavley). BH Bikes has also agreed to a compliance plan to add the appropriate marking and certify all models to MAEDbS before continuing to sell in California.
