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’m not entirely sure what’s going on with this product… Does it really need a calibration process every time I turn it on? It seems like a minor hassle, but overall the performance is still good.

I’m not sure if it’s just me, but I find the controller to be a bit finicky when it comes to battery charging. Sometimes it takes longer than expected for the batteries to charge fully. That being said, the overall performance is still excellent.
