Are ebikes illegal in NSW?
E-bikes are not illegal in NSW if they meet the requirements. What makes them illegal is when the motor does all the work or when the bike goes beyond the wattage and speed limits. At that point it is no longer classed as an e-bike, it is treated as a motorbike under the law.
If you ride one of these non-compliant bikes on NSW roads or paths, you risk more than just a slap on the wrist. Significant fines apply, and police can seize your bike on the spot.
