Not sold sa Australia by the brand
23These brands don’t sell or ship to Australia, going by their own websites. An imported one wouldn’t be a legal e-bike here.

Mga karaniwang tanong
Can police take an illegal e-bike sa Queensland?
Yes. Since 1 July 2026 Queensland police can seize, impound and destroy illegal e-bikes, such as bikes rated over 250 W or with a throttle that works above 6 km/h.
Why does the same e-bike have different specs sa different countries?
Many brands sell a faster, more powerful version sa the US (often 500–750 W and 32–45 km/h) and a 250 W, 25 km/h version in Australia and Europe under the same model name. Check the Australian listing and the label on the bike.
