Fat tyres do cost e-bike range, but far less than speed does. Here is the rolling resistance maths in watts, and what it means for a real Sydney commute.

NSW has no e-bike rebate in 2026. Tasmania pays up to $500, Queensland spent $2 million, and electric cars stay tax-free up to $91,661. Here’s the fix.

E-bike battery voltage or percentage: which number is honest? Why voltage sags under load, and the watt-hour maths that predicts your real range in Sydney.

Yes — and since the 170 m ramp opened in January 2026, riding an e-bike over the Sydney Harbour Bridge means no stairs. Route, times and rules from Leichhardt.

Queensland e-bike laws now let police seize and destroy non-compliant bikes. But the Assurance Scheme has an adaptive e-trike category — verify by 28 Feb 2027.
