Oddly, CPSC standards are minimal, although the reflector standards are weird and usually disregarded. https://www.cpsc.gov/Business--Manuf...e-Requirements And they apply to the sale of bicycles and have nothing to do with the operation of bicycles.. Equipment required to operate on the road is dictated by local law.
