We're a team of passionate cyclists and electric bike enthusiasts dedicated to helping Australians discover the joy of e-biking through honest advice and thorough testing.
What started as a personal quest to find the perfect commuter e-bike has grown into Australia's trusted resource for electric bicycle information. Our journey began in 2024 when our founder, frustrated by the lack of Australian-focused e-bike content, decided to create the resource they wished existed.
Like many Australians, we discovered electric bikes out of necessity. The daily commute through Sydney's hills, the desire to arrive at work without being drenched in sweat, and the rising cost of petrol all pointed toward one solution: an electric bike. But finding reliable information tailored to Australian conditions, regulations, and retailers proved surprisingly difficult.
Most e-bike content online caters to American or European markets, with different power limits, voltage standards, and completely different terrain considerations. We couldn't find answers to basic questions like "Will this motor handle the gradient on Parramatta Road?" or "How does this battery perform in Australian summer heat?" So we decided to answer these questions ourselves.
We started testing e-bikes across various Australian conditions—from Melbourne's unpredictable weather to Brisbane's subtropical humidity, from Perth's coastal paths to the challenging hills of Hobart. We measured real-world range figures, evaluated motor performance on Australian inclines, and tested braking systems in both dry conditions and sudden afternoon storms. Every review, every guide, and every comparison on this site comes from genuine hands-on experience with the Australian cycling environment in mind.
Today, our team has collectively logged over 2,500 kilometres on electric bikes across Australia. We've tested folding e-bikes on crowded Sydney trains, cargo bikes on school runs in Melbourne suburbs, and mountain e-bikes on trails from the Blue Mountains to the Adelaide Hills. This isn't just a website—it's the culmination of genuine passion for sustainable, practical, and enjoyable transportation.
We believe electric bikes represent one of the most significant transportation innovations of our time. They make cycling accessible to people of all fitness levels, extend the practical range of bicycle commuting, and offer a genuinely enjoyable way to reduce our carbon footprint. Our mission is simple: to help every Australian find the right e-bike for their needs, budget, and riding style.
