Should you buy it?
Best suited to
Commuters who want serious range (65 km claimed, around 33 km realistic) and can lock the speed to the legal 25 km/h class.
Standout strength
Big 561 Wh battery, a dual piston front disc brake and self sealing tubeless tyres.
Main compromise
No suspension and, at 26.3 kg, on the heavier side to carry.
Check before buying. Price varies noticeably by AU retailer (seen $1,399 to $1,699 in July 2026); shop around. The battery pack alone is separately rated IPX7 by one AU listing, unverified beyond that source.
