In Singapore, where urban mobility and sustainability go hand in hand, electric bicycles (e-bikes) have become an increasingly popular mode of transportation. However, with this rise in popularity comes the need for strict regulations to ensure public safety and road compliance. The Land Transport Authority (LTA) has established clear guidelines for e-bikes, requiring all models to meet specific safety and performance standards before they can be legally ridden on public roads. LTA-approved e-bikes must adhere to key specifications, including a maximum motor power output of 250W and a speed limit of 25 km/h when powered. Additionally, their batteries must be UL2272-certified to minimize fire risks—a critical safety measure in Singapore’s densely populated urban environment. By choosing an LTA-approved e-bike from a trusted provider like Eko Life, riders can enjoy the convenience and eco-friendliness of electric cycling while staying fully compliant with national regulations.
The consequences of riding a non-compliant e-bike in Singapore can be severe, ranging from hefty fines to the confiscation of the vehicle. First-time offenders caught using illegal or modified e-bikes may face fines of up to $1,000, while repeat offenders risk penalties of up to $5,000 and even imprisonment. Beyond legal repercussions, uncertified e-bikes pose significant safety hazards, including battery fires, brake failures, and instability at high speeds. These risks not only endanger the rider but also pedestrians and other road users. At Eko Life, we prioritize safety and compliance by offering a curated selection of LTA-approved e-bikes that undergo rigorous quality checks. Our models are designed for reliability, efficiency, and peace of mind, ensuring that riders can navigate Singapore’s streets without worry.
Choosing an LTA-approved e-bike isn’t just about avoiding penalties—it’s about contributing to a safer, more sustainable future for urban mobility. Certified e-bikes are engineered to balance performance and safety, providing a smooth and controlled riding experience. They also support Singapore’s vision of a car-lite society by offering a green alternative to traditional transport. Eko Life is committed to promoting responsible riding habits, which is why we educate our customers on the importance of LTA compliance and proper e-bike maintenance. From daily commuters to weekend explorers, riders who opt for LTA-approved e-bikes can enjoy the full benefits of electric cycling while upholding the highest standards of safety and legality.
By investing in an LTA-approved e-bike from a reputable dealer like Eko Life, you’re not just purchasing a vehicle—you’re making a smart, long-term choice for hassle-free and sustainable transportation in Singapore. Whether you’re looking for an efficient way to beat traffic, reduce your carbon footprint, or simply enjoy the freedom of two-wheeled travel, an LTA-certified e-bike is the safest and most reliable option available. Ride with confidence, ride legally, and ride towards a greener future with Eko Life.

Will this Folding Front Bicycle Basket hold a big bag of groceries?
Marcus Tan –
Thank you for sharing your question about our Folding Front Bicycle Basket! The basket is designed to hold smaller items, but it can accommodate a big bag of groceries, depending on its size and shape. Generally, our customers report being able to fit items up to 20x15x10 cm in size. If you have a bag that’s larger, it might be a bit snug, but it should still fit. We’d love to hear if you have any more questions or if you’d like to share your experience once you’ve tried it out!

I’m obsessed with the versatility of the Folding Front Bicycle Basket! Not only is it super lightweight, but it’s also a breeze to attach and detach from my bike. I’ve used it to carry everything from groceries to my kids’ toys on our daily bike rides. The only thing I wish was slightly different is the durability of the handle, it feels a bit flimsy. Nonetheless, it’s been a lifesaver on our daily errands!

Is there a way to reinforce the sides for added stability? I’ve encountered a few incidents where the basket has shifted slightly during rides
Lance Lee –
Thank you for reaching out, Evan. We appreciate your feedback and are happy to help you reinforce the sides for added stability. Unfortunately, our basket is designed to be lightweight and foldable to ensure ease of use and storage. However, we can suggest a few DIY solutions that may help. You can try attaching some additional supports or straps to the basket to prevent it from shifting during rides. We’ll also consider your feedback and explore ways to improve the stability of our future designs. In the meantime, please let us know if you need further assistance or have any questions. This also would be a good opportunity for other users to share their solutions and tips for added stability.

Will this work for long-distance rides? I’d really like to use it on cycling tours
Michelle Chong –
Thank you for your question, Zara. The Folding Front Bicycle Basket is designed to be a practical accessory for riders, and with its lightweight and compact design, it’s perfect for carrying small items during commutes or leisure rides. However, whether it’s suitable for long-distance rides depends on your specific needs and preferences. If you’re planning for extended tours, we recommend checking the weight limit and the materials used in the basket’s construction to ensure they can handle the weight and stress of your ride. We’d also be happy to provide more information on how to attach and secure the basket for peace of mind while on your tour. Can you please let us know if you’d like more details on these points?
