Common questions
How much does the Leitner Berlin Cruiser cost in Australia?
The Leitner Berlin Cruiser is listed at $1,450 (ride-away). eBikeFinder checks pricing against manufacturer and distributor information, and prices can change with sales and stock. This price was last checked on 27 Sep 2026.
Is the Leitner Berlin Cruiser road legal in Australia?
Yes. The Leitner Berlin Cruiser 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. It ships with a throttle; on a road-legal e-bike the throttle must not propel the bike above 6 km/h, so check how the throttle is set for your 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 Leitner Berlin Cruiser?
The Leitner Berlin Cruiser has a claimed range of 20 to 50 km from its 360Wh 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 Leitner Berlin Cruiser have?
The Leitner Berlin Cruiser uses a XOFO rear hub motor, in a rear hub position, producing 43Nm of torque.
How much does the Leitner Berlin Cruiser weigh?
The Leitner Berlin Cruiser weighs about 25 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 Leitner Berlin Cruiser in Australia?
The Leitner range is distributed in Australia by Leitner (Melbourne). Buying from a brand with real Australian support matters most when something needs a warranty claim or a service.
