Q: What speed is my bikes limited to? A: E-bikes are limited to 25 km/h to conform to the road rules of Australia. Once the motor reaches this speed limit, it will stop providing assistance. It is possible to pedal faster than 25 km/h, but you won’t get any assistance from the motor. Once the speed controller recognises that you’re under 25 km/h, the battery management system will again supply power to the main motor.
