Not legal in Australia from what I understand for two reasons.  You have to pedal to engage the battery to assist, no pedal no assistance and after 25km/h the electrics cut out and all power is supplied by the rider, no battery power.


Here's one on Gumtree http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/coromandel-valley/bicycles/stealth-bomber-electric-bike/1133237271

Only $8900

I guess Melbourne

There should be enough evidence in that clip for  :police: to show an interest.

Someone recognised the location as Parramatta in one of the comments.

Wow! He has close to 53 million views on youtube overall so is probably making money!

Thought I’d bump this post as I am looking at getting an e-bike and the posts are a few years old now.

Thanks, I had a look at that thread. Main difference is I’m after a commuter bike.

Our circumstance slightly changed and at present haven't proceeded in getting a bike.
