1000W kit put on an Avanti Montari. Rough price $800 bike, $1290 for kit. Pretty fun for some off-road riding and a nice simple setup.

We are happy to be able to offer to the people of Fremantle and beyond a splendid range of Titanium bicycles. We have partnered up with Tizona, an Australian/Spanish company, that designs and imports their own range of high spec Titanium bicycle frames and components. Titanium is one of the greatest frame materials for bike riders. It’s a touch behind carbon for racers due to weight but not far off. It offers a beautiful ride due to its flexibility and it’s roughly half the weight of steel and twice as strong as aluminium. It’s also famous for its longevity, any titanium component will long outlive you. All Tizona bikes are custom made, you are to choose between either a road frame or gravel frame and then chose all the running gear and we will assemble it for you.

We have completed a final move. We are just around the corner in a bigger and more beautiful shop. Please come and visit and let us service all of your electric bicycle needs.

This is a tandem electric bicycle that was brought in for a conversion by a customer. Obviously his partner wasn’t doing their fair share of riding so it was brought in for an urgent need of power assist. In this instance we put on a front mini-motor and a large tiger shark battery of 21Ah capacity for a great riding range. Now both riders are happy and using the bicycle far more often than previously. Click here if you would like more information on this exact conversion kit.

Thank you to Gary for sending in this review. It is of his Bacchetta Giro 26″ recumbent that he made electric.

” This was an easy install of a 250w 9ah front hub kit. The battery was mounted on the rear of the seat using one of the water bottle mounts. The controller was put on the frame under the seat. The performance is great on the flat and up the hills. The main reason for installing this kit was that I wanted a throttle assist burst to get moving, when starting at intersections and hill starts it can be very challenging with a recumbent. On the flat ground the throttle only pulls 6.5 amps, so the 9ah battery lasts and lasts. I have done long runs and still have a lot of battery capacity left. The cruise speed is approximately 27 km/h. I have steel forks and installed both torque arms.” 

Welcome to the new Bushranger design. Sleek new integrated battery design look with similar awesome specs. Hydraulic disc brakes, 14Ah lithium ion battery, Bafang rear hub motor. and 29 inch wheels. We’ve added integrated front and rear lights, a rack and a stand to make it just that little bit more road-rider friendly. This is a great hard tail electric mountatin bicycle for anyone looking for a great on and off road ebike.

The DREADNOUGHTs have arrived just in time for summer. This is our electric Fat Bike. With wide 26 x 4″ tyres you can ride more or less anywhere. The big fat spongy tyres will go over any bumps, trails, sandy tracks or beaches. This ebike features a suspension fork, 36V 14Ah Samsung lithium ion battery integrated into the frame, internal cable routing, hydraulic disc brakes, Shimano Alivio gear set, integrated lights and carrier rack. It’s a top of the line street-legal fat bike. Perfect for a ride on the beach. More information here.

The new improved ROADRUNNER ebike has just arrived into Australia. Featuring a sleek frame with the battery integrated into the down tube, internal cables, wider 27.5 x 2.4 inch Schwalbe Super Motor tyres and a bunch of extras this is a fantastic electric bicycle. The high capacity Samsung 500Wh battery will give an exceedingly great range if you run on throttle or pedal assist mode. This is a hybrid bicycle that is designed for speed and comfort. It’s suitable if you are a rider intent on regular riding to work and back for years to come. The rear hub Bafang motor is nearly indestructible and the Alivio 9 speed rear gear is very smooth. Please come in for a test ride in Fremantle at 31 Cantonment street. More information is available here.

The Olive has been a very popular step-through ebike around the Fremantle area so we’ve added to the size range to include a 24″ model. This bicycle suits people around 5’3 (161cm), plus or minus 5-10 cm. It was proving particularly difficult to find an electric bicycle that people on the slightly smaller side could ride comfortably so we designed this one for that height bracket. The Shimano 9 speed Alivio gear set is great and hydraulic disc brakes help you stop quickly if needed. The battery is from Samsung and has a 36V 14Ah capacity so will give an exceedingly long range. You can get power with either the pedal assist system or the throttle. It comes complete with a rear rack, kick stand, integrated front and back lights and an optional front basket. This bicycle rides fantastically and is well worth taking for a test ride if you are struggling to find a small top end electric bicycle. It costs $2590. Please come into our shop at 31 Cantonment street, Fremantle to take a look.
