VelectriX Urban Pulse (2026) at a glance
VelectriX's core commuter. A 250W Bafang mid-drive, 460Wh battery and up to 60 km of range, sold with the kind of nationwide dealer support most value e-bikes cannot offer.
The VelectriX Urban Pulse is a commuter e-bike that is no longer sold in Australia. It pairs a Bafang mid-drive mid drive motor, a 460Wh battery rated for up to 60km, 700c wheels, and weighs 26.6kg. It is listed as a 250W pedal-assist e-bike limited to 25 km/h for Australian roads.
Is it for you?
We have not ridden this bike. This read is based on the spec sheet and Australian seller information, not a test ride.
Best suited to
The value-focused commuter who wants a mid-drive e-bike with local dealer backup rather than a direct-to-consumer box bike.
Standout strength
A mid-drive at an entry price with the support of 150-plus bricks-and-mortar dealers. Few direct rivals match that service footprint.
The main compromise
The 460Wh battery is mid-pack, so very long rides will want more capacity.
Consider something else if
You want a name-brand mid-drive like Bosch or Shimano, or a bigger battery for longer rides. The Bafang M200 here is built to a price.
Check before you buy
Confirm the exact battery and brake spec on the model year in store, since VelectriX rolls component changes through the range mid-cycle.

Common questions
How much does the VelectriX Urban Pulse cost in Australia?
The VelectriX Urban Pulse is listed at $2,399 (ride-away). eBikeFinder checks pricing against manufacturer and distributor information, and prices can change with sales and stock. This price was last checked on 20 Jul 2026.
Is the VelectriX Urban Pulse road legal in Australia?
Yes. The VelectriX Urban Pulse 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 VelectriX Urban Pulse?
The VelectriX Urban Pulse has a claimed range of 45 to 60 km from its 460Wh 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 VelectriX Urban Pulse have?
The VelectriX Urban Pulse uses a Bafang mid-drive motor, in a mid-drive position. Mid-drive motors climb hills better because they work through the bike's gears.
How much does the VelectriX Urban Pulse weigh?
The VelectriX Urban Pulse weighs about 26.6 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 VelectriX Urban Pulse in Australia?
The VelectriX range is distributed in Australia by VelectriX (Sunshine Coast, QLD); sold through 99 Bikes and 150+ independent dealers. Buying from a brand with real Australian support matters most when something needs a warranty claim or a service.
