Did the police in this video not have legal authority to do what they did? I'll answer that for you:

§ 158-9 Violations and penalties.
[Amended 5-21-1991 by Ord. No. 648.91]

A. Any bicycle being operated or propelled in violation of any of the provisions of this chapter, upon the personal observation of a law enforcement officer, is subject to immediate confiscation. A confiscated bicycle shall be returned upon payment of any fine imposed or upon any final adjudication.

Guess I missed the part that justified the handcuffing.
