Are electric bikes legal in Ireland?

Yes, electric bikes are legal in Ireland. As long as your electric bike has a motor with a maximum continuous rated power of 250 watts and the motor only assists up to speeds of 25 km/h, it is considered a bicycle under Irish law. This means you can ride it without tax, insurance, or a driving licence. E-bikes that go faster or have more power may be classified as mopeds and are subject to different regulations.

Which is our best e-bike?

There’s no single best electric bike for everyone, it depends on what you need. Some riders prefer long-range touring e-bikes, while others want lightweight city models or powerful motors for hills. We offer a wide range of quality e-bikes to suit every style and budget. Visit us to find the perfect fit for your commute or adventure.

Which is our fastest e-bike?

All of our electric bikes have the same maximum speed of 25 km/h, which is the legal limit for pedal-assist e-bikes in Ireland. Each model is engineered for efficiency and quick acceleration, with high-torque motors and smooth handling to help you ride confidently and comfortably at the top permitted speed. Whether you’re commuting in the city or exploring longer routes, you’ll enjoy responsive power and consistent performance across the entire range.

Do I need insurance for an electric bike?

No, if your electric bike meets Irish legal standards, insurance is not required. However, we recommend optional e-bike insurance for theft protection, accidental damage, and liability coverage, especially if you use your e-bike daily or store it outdoors.

Do you need a licence for an electric bike?

You do not need a driving licence to ride an electric bike in Ireland, provided it qualifies as a pedelec (up to 250W and 25 km/h). These e-bikes are treated like regular bicycles, so anyone over the age of 16 can ride one on public roads and cycle lanes without a licence.

How do electric assist bikes work?

Electric assist bikes, or pedal-assist e-bikes, use a motor that helps you while you pedal. A sensor detects your pedaling force and activates the motor to provide smooth, natural-feeling assistance, making hills easier and long rides more comfortable. The motor stops assisting when you reach 25 km/h or stop pedaling, keeping your ride safe and energy-efficient.
