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.

I was wondering if this product would be suitable for an e-bicycle with a higher weight capacity? I have a friend who has a heavier e-bike and wants to know if it can handle the added weight. Would anyone know if there’s any specific guidelines or limitations for using this product on heavier e-bicycles?
Michelle Chong –
Thank you for your question, Chin Hui Ping! The Minimotors Scorpion Electric Bicycle Kick Stand – Mechanical Servicing is designed to be versatile and adaptable to various e-bicycle weights. However, we recommend checking the specifications of your friend’s heavier e-bike to ensure that our product can handle the added weight. As a general guideline, our kick stand is suitable for e-bicycles with a maximum weight capacity of 250 pounds (113 kg). If your friend’s e-bike exceeds this weight limit, it may be more challenging for our product to provide stable support. We would be happy to help you or your friend explore other options that can accommodate the heavier e-bicycle. Please feel free to contact us if you have any further questions or concerns.

What a great question! Would this product be as effective for an e-bicycle with a different motor type (e.g., hub motor)? I’m planning to purchase another one for my friend who has a different e-bicycle model. Can anyone confirm if it’s compatible with other types of motors?
Michelle Chong –
Thank you for your question, Loh Hui Min! We’re happy to help clarify compatibility with different motor types. The Minimotors Scorpion Electric Bicycle Kick Stand – Mechanical Servicing is designed specifically for our e-bicycle models featuring brushless motors. While it’s possible that the kick stand might work with other motor types, we can’t guarantee its effectiveness or compatibility without further testing. Hub motors, in particular, may require a different design and configuration to ensure proper functionality. If you’re planning to purchase another one for your friend, we recommend checking the specifications of their e-bicycle model before making a decision. We appreciate your patience and understanding.
