Ebikes are fast becoming a popular choice for riders looking to get there faster, with less effort. Leave the car behind and avoid the need for public transport – riding an Ebike each day gives you more of the things you love about riding a bike, and will make you want to do it more often.
With the new Urban range, Reid and Shimano Steps deliver a sleek and cleverly designed Ebike package to answer all the challenges of riding around your city or heading out on touring adventures. Designed for a modern, understated look and powered by the latest Shimano Steps E5000 Series mid-mount electric motor system, these eBikes are ready to go.
Ebikes use a battery powered motor to give you pedal-assistance up to 25km/hr to help you ride further, with less effort so you can get there faster and in better shape.
For online home delivery orders, bikes are shipped in a box 85% assembled and require some final assembly.

Q. TELL ME ABOUT THE SHIMANO STEPS MID-MOUNT MOTOR.
Choosing a mid-mount motor design keeps the centre of gravity low for more predictable handling, especially over broken ground. The Shimano Steps E5000 system is a rugged, weatherproof performer from an industry leader that will reliably get you where you need to go - no matter the conditions.
Q. HOW FAST DOES AN EBIKE GO?
Ebikes in Australia are limited to 250w and will assist you up to 25km/hr - going faster than this is up to the effort of the rider. Any motor providing more power will be classified as a motorbike and must be registered and ridden by a licenced rider, and will not be allowed on bike paths or lanes.
Q. HOW FAR CAN I TRAVEL ON A FULL CHARGE?
The range you can expect on a full charge depends on the rider, how much luggage you’re carrying, terrain and the power setting. Under standard commuting conditions you can expect a range of 125km in Eco mode or 85km in Full Power mode from the Shimano Steps system.
Q. HOW DO I CHARGE AN EBIKE AND HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE?
Simply plug the charger into a standard wall socket at work or when you get home. To charge the battery from 0% to 80% will take 2 hours, 100% in 4 hours. Most of the time though you’ll just need to top up rather than completely refill.
Q. HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO CHARGE?
Around 12.5c for a full charge (at 30c/kWh).
