Not as a bicycle. The 79Bike Falcon Lite sits outside the 250W pedal-assist standard (through higher power or a throttle that drives it beyond walking pace), so in Australia it is treated as a motor vehicle. That means it is for private property or off-road use, not public roads or shared paths, unless registered.
The 79Bike Falcon Lite has a claimed range of about 80 km from its 2160Wh battery. Real-world range is usually lower than the claim, since it depends on assist level, rider weight, terrain and wind.
The 79Bike Falcon Lite uses a 79Bike mid-drive motor, 8kW peak motor, in a mid-drive position, producing 340Nm of torque. Mid-drive motors climb hills better because they work through the bike's gears.
The 79Bike Falcon Lite weighs about 63 kg. That matters if you need to lift it onto a car rack, carry it up stairs, or store it, since e-bikes are heavier than regular bikes because of the motor and battery.
The 79Bike range is distributed in Australia by Sold through MXR Motorsports, iScoot and other Australian e-moto dealers. Buying from a brand with real Australian support matters most when something needs a warranty claim or a service.
