Yup.
And that one photo on their website that shows it has a bicycle license is a bit appalling, most jurisdictions allow you to apply for a bike license on-line so of course they chose to license it that way so that they could claim it was "officially" a bicycle. I could license my truck as a bicycle that way in my community for the cost of $10, but of course nobody would accept the claim that my truck is a bicycle because everybody knows what a truck is.
As I said above in a previous post, I am not opposed to e-bikes on roads, but I am opposed to them being used on trails that were designed for non-motorized travel.
