Listen Later

New South Wales will ban children under 12 from riding e-bikes by the end of the year, with a transport review investigating whether to raise the age limit to 16. The government will adopt a European standard limiting e-bikes to 250 watts from 2029, giving current owners of the estimated 760,000 e-bikes in NSW time to comply. The new regulations, expected to be backed by fines, include anti-tampering measures to prevent modification of power and speed.
