FAQs
What is the difference between an off-road electric bike and a regular electric bike?
An off-road electric bike is designed for unsealed tracks, with wide tyres, suspension, and stronger frames for rough terrain. Regular electric bikes are better suited to sealed paths and daily urban use.

How far can a road bike go on a single charge?
Most of our electric road bikes in Australia travel between 20 and 100 km per charge, depending on battery size, assist level, and terrain.
Are road bikes suitable for beginners?
Yes. Leitner’s electric road bike models are stable, easy to use, and comfortable for everyday riding.
Do I need a license or registration for an electric road bike in Australia?
No. You don’t need a licence or rego if your electric road bike in Australia meets local e-bike laws (250W motor, 25 km/h max assist speed).
