Queensland Government E-bike Rules

The Queensland Government has recently released updated details around the restrictions, rules and penalties for e-bikes. Australia has adopted the Electric Power Assisted Bicycles (EPAC) EN15194 standard, which says that pedals must be the primary source of power, with pedal assistance cutting out after 25km/h. This standard also regulates that the maximum continuous power is limited to 250 Watts.


Bicycle Queensland has released a position statement on e-bikes and e-motorbikes that do not comply with the Australian standards, and we are calling for a restriction on import and sales of non-compliant devices.
