Illegal e-bikes to be seized and destroyed in NSW crackdown | ABC NEWS
New speed detection devices will be moved around New South Wales, allowing police to detect speeding illegal e-bikes as part of a major crackdown.
Devices found to be going over the state’s e-bike speed limit of 25 kilometres per hour will be seized and destroyed by authorities, under expanded police powers.
Any e-bike that operates in throttle-only mode, where riders do not have to pedal to power the device, is illegal on the state’s roads under current laws.
