Is it for you?
Best suited to
Riders who want a mid-drive hardtail for bike paths, gravel and light trails from an Australian brand.
Standout strength
A genuine 80Nm mid-drive on a hardtail with hydraulic brakes and knobbly tyres, at the value end of the market.
The main compromise
A 522Wh battery and an 80Nm drive are modest for serious trail climbing.
Consider something else if
You ride steep technical trails that need a full-power performance eMTB.
Check before you buy
Confirm the tyre and frame spec suit your terrain, and consider the dual-battery option for range.

Common questions
How much does the Earth PRIME S Hardtail cost in Australia?
The Earth PRIME S Hardtail is listed at $3,090 (ride-away (incl GST)). eBikeFinder checks pricing against manufacturer and distributor information, and prices can change with sales and stock. This price was last checked on 2026-09-22.
Is the Earth PRIME S Hardtail road legal in Australia?
Yes. The Earth PRIME S Hardtail is a 250W pedal-assist e-bike that stops assisting at 25 km/h, which meets the road-legal e-bike standard in every Australian state. Compliance is asserted by the brand rather than independently verified, so confirm the current spec with the seller.
What is the range of the Earth PRIME S Hardtail?
The Earth PRIME S Hardtail has a claimed range of 40 to 60 km from its 522Wh battery. Real-world range is usually lower than the claim, since it depends on assist level, rider weight, terrain and wind.
What motor does the Earth PRIME S Hardtail have?
The Earth PRIME S Hardtail uses a EARTH 80Nm mid-drive motor, in a mid-drive position, producing 80Nm of torque. Mid-drive motors climb hills better because they work through the bike's gears.
How much does the Earth PRIME S Hardtail weigh?
The Earth PRIME S Hardtail weighs about 27 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.
Who sells and backs the Earth PRIME S Hardtail in Australia?
The Earth range is distributed in Australia by Earth Electric Bikes. Buying from a brand with real Australian support matters most when something needs a warranty claim or a service.
