In a joint statement they said: “There is a reason these bikes are banned from the road, and devastatingly Finley has paid the ultimate price in losing his life.

“His friend has sustained serious injuries and has to come to terms with growing up without his best mate.

“Although the thrill of riding an electric bike on the road seems exciting, it can also be fatal.

“That quick thrill, is not worth the risk.”

A spokesperson for Derbyshire police said: “Finley’s family are being supported by specialist officers, and our thoughts go out to them at this difficult time.

“The driver of the Kia is being treated as a witness and is assisting officers with enquiries.

“No arrests have been made.”
