Built for the road. Designed to pass inspection. From back garden to DVSA — this is Warrior Cycles' flagship conversion.
1500W of torque, street legal, and road-tested for DVSA approval. This bike started as a converted rust bucket. Now it’s got 4-inch tyres, hydraulic brakes, a VESC controller — and a 28mph cap that keeps it Class L1e compliant.
This isn’t a DIY experiment — the Panther was built to pass DVSA individual vehicle approval (MSVA). That means hardware-based speed limiting, safety features fitted to spec, and all electrical components chosen for reliability and fire safety.
You won’t find a twist-and-hope throttle here. Every design choice was made with safety and compliance in mind — from brake redundancy to light placement.
Labels, lights, mirrors, reflectors, a side stand, number plate mount — everything has been fitted to meet MSVA standards.
The DVSA team have been brilliant — proper professional, helpful, and sharp. Every detail on this bike now aims for full legal approval.
