Are e-bikes legal in Tasmania?

Yes. All pedal-assist e-bikes up to 250W and 25 km/h assistance are legal in Tasmania.

How far can an e-bike go in Hobart?

Most riders get 50–120 km depending on hills, wind, weight and mode. Larger 600–800Wh batteries provide excellent range for local terrain.

What mountain bike is best for Tasmanian trails?

Trail and enduro bikes with 140–170mm travel and strong 4-piston brakes are ideal for Meehan Range, Glenorchy and Derby.

How often should I service my bike?

We recommend servicing every 6 months or 500 km, with more frequent checks for e-MTBs or heavily ridden bikes.

Do you service Bosch and Shimano e-bikes?

Yes. We perform diagnostics, firmware updates and battery checks on Bosch, Shimano and other major e-bike systems.

What size bike do I need?

Bike size depends on height, reach and riding style. Visit Ride Bellerive for an in-store measurement and professional fit.

Trek Precaliber 16" Coaster Brake Kids Bike

The Trek Precaliber 16" Coaster Brake Kids Bike is a quality 16 inch kids bike designed to help young riders build confidence, learn to pedal and enjoy their first real cycling adventures.

With simple back-pedal braking, stable handling and a lightweight aluminium frame, the Precaliber 16" is a great choice for kids moving up from a balance bike or smaller 12" bike. It is easy to ride, easy to control and built tough enough for everyday family use.

Perfect for footpaths, parks, school runs, bike paths and neighbourhood rides, this Trek kids bike gives little riders a proper bike shop quality option that is lighter and easier to handle than many department-store bikes.

Why we like it

The Trek Precaliber 16" keeps things simple for young riders. The coaster brake lets kids stop by pedalling backwards, while the low stand-over height and stable geometry help make starting, stopping and turning feel more natural.

It is a proper little bike, built with the same attention to detail Trek is known for.
