eBike Toronto – FAQ
What is an eBike?
According to the government of Ontario, an eBike (also known as an electric bike, or a power-assisted bicycle), is a bicycle with an electric motor that also has:
- A handlebar for steering
- Pedal assist
- Two or three wheels
- Braking systems

Do I need to pedal to activate the assistance?
We sell Class 1 electric bicycles in Toronto, and you need to pedal to activate the motor assistance. Electrical assistance is triggered by the sensor (torque or cadence depending on the bike) once the user makes a rotation or it senses there is pressure on the pedals.
Can I ride my electric bike in Toronto like I would with traditional bikes?
Yes, it is possible to turn off the motor assistance and ride your electric bike like a traditional non-electric one. You can activate the motor to assist you whenever you please, as there are multiple assistance levels available at any time.

What’s the maximum speed an ebike can go in Toronto?
