When looking for an e-bike with throttle legal in the Netherlands, many riders are confused about the rules and the options available. The Netherlands is famous for its cycling culture, and electric bikes make commuting even more convenient. At Fafrees EU Ebike Online Shop, we offer e-bikes and gear tailored to EU riders, ensuring our models meet Dutch and EU regulations, while also delivering comfort, safety, and style.
Understanding Throttle E-Bikes in the Netherlands
In the Netherlands, a standard electric bicycle (pedelec) assists you only when you pedal, and up to a maximum of 25 km/h. But what about throttle e-bikes? A throttle e-bike allows you to ride without pedaling, simply by twisting the throttle to engage the motor.
The good news is: certain e-bikes with throttle are legal in the Netherlands, as long as they comply with specific criteria. According to Dutch law and EU EN15194 standards:
- The maximum assisted speed must not exceed 25 km/h.
- The motor power must not exceed 250W.
- If the bike has a throttle, it may only assist up to 6 km/h without pedaling (to help start from a standstill).
For throttle use beyond 6 km/h without pedaling, the bike is classified differently — more like a moped — and requires registration, insurance, and a helmet.
At Fafrees Electric Bikes, we ensure our e-bikes with throttle are compliant and safe for Dutch streets.
