Disc mount is far too proper. They come with a ring (in two halves) that clamps the sprocket to the spokes, because everything about them is a horrible bodge.

I presume in this country they're bought for fun / teenage dickery rather than useful commuting function, though there may be some part of the world where they're actual transport.

This one seemed to be on student commuting duty, though of course that in no way precludes teenage dickery.

And, of course, blatantly illegal (unless the owner has gone through a lot of hoops and got it registered as a moped with a numberplate, insurance etc).
No excuse for the police not to stop that for a look,  whereas an iffy electric bike is a bit more work to show it is illegal.
