Fatboy Bikes

All Fatboy Bikes models have a maximum continued rated power of 250 watts at 20km/h, or 500 watts at 25km/h with a max load of 180 kgs. In the opinion of Fatboy Bikes this is inline with EPAC legislation. The continued rated power can be further limited where required by restricting the bikes speed further. Throttles are strictly for private property use and should be isolated when riding in public.

Each state has slightly different rules around e-bikes so before using this vehicle, check the applicable local laws relating to your intended use of the vehicle on roads, footpaths, shared paths, bicycle lanes and bicycle paths.

On February 2023, the government gave recognition to the NSW Minister for Metropolitan Roads for amending the Road Transport Act 2013’s provisions limiting the maximum power of e-bike motors permitted on public roads. The permissible level of continuous running power was increased from 250 watts to 500 watts by the Road Transport Legislation Amendment (Electric Skateboards and Bicycles) Regulation 2023

All Fatboy Bikes models have a maximum continuous power of 250 watts at 20km/h, or 500 watts at 25km/h with a max load of 180 kgs. In the opinion of Fatboy Bikes this is inline with EPAC legislation. Before using this EPAC, check the applicable local laws relating to your intended use of the EPAC on roads and road related areas. 

The electric motor should not assist the rider when travelling more than 25km/h but does not prevent the rider travelling faster with their own pedalling or going downhill. When using your ebike on private property, the bike can be unlocked to reach up to 55-60km/h.

The Fatboy Bikes are weight rated for up to 180kgs.
