Quick Answer Fredericton has 5 verified eBike storefronts as of June 2026 — from Pedego, a dedicated electric-bike store, to Savage's, a downtown shop that has sold bikes in the city for well over a century. The good news for riders: Fredericton has 120+ km of multi-use trails, and the City's By-Law No. L-19 treats a pedal-assist e-bike ("E-Bicycle") as a bicycle, so it is welcome on that network. The catch is a 20 km/h speed limit on every trail and parkland roadway (L-19, s.5.3(1) and s.4.9(1)), and cycling on sidewalks is banned outright. New Brunswick follows the federal PAB framework (500W, 32 km/h, working pedals), and a fastened helmet is mandatory for every rider, all ages. If no local shop has the model you want, Zeus ships e-bikes free across Canada, each built to the 500W PAB standard — and our Canada eBike laws guide covers New Brunswick's rules in full.
How We Verified This Directory Each storefront was cross-referenced across Google Maps, yellowpages.ca, the shop's own current website, and independent directories (June 2026), and listed only when at least two independent sources confirmed it sells or services e-bikes in Fredericton. We deliberately excluded businesses that turned up in searches but are not Fredericton e-bike storefronts — Lite Cycles (its own site now reads "CLOSED PERMANENTLY"), 2nd Wind Cycle (St. Martins / Fundy area), Mike's Bike Shop (Dieppe), The Bike Works (Saint John), and Brunswick EBikes (North Brunswick, New Jersey) are all left out rather than padding the count. Every bylaw statement is tied to a named primary source: the City of Fredericton's Cycling page and By-Law No. L-19 (Respecting Parklands and Trail Systems, incorporating L-19.1, enacted March 13, 2023), the New Brunswick Motor Vehicle Act (RSNB 1973, c. M-17), and Velo NB. Where a section number is quoted, it is taken verbatim from the L-19 text. This directory is re-verified every six months.

Fredericton is a genuinely good e-bike town: over 120 km of multi-use trails follow both banks of the Saint John River, and the retail scene to match it is small but real — five verified storefronts, from Pedego, a store built specifically around electric bikes, to Savage's Bicycle Center, a downtown fixture selling bikes in the city since 1897. The harder part isn't buying the bike; it's the one local rule that surprises new owners. The City does not police e-bikes with a power test — it polices them with a speed test. Under By-Law No. L-19, a pedal-assist e-bike rides as a bicycle on the trail network, but the speed limit on any trail or parkland roadway is capped at 20 km/h, and the sidewalk is off-limits entirely. This directory lists every verified shop, then walks through exactly what those rules mean before you ride.

Hours: Mon-Fri 10 am-6 pm · Sat 10 am-4 pm · Sun closed
Focus: A bicycle and e-bike shop whose strength is service — its technicians specialise in e-bike repair across the brands it carries, with the manufacturer-backed tools and training to keep an electric drivetrain running.

The draw here is the service-and-financing infrastructure of a full powersports shop applied to e-bikes, which can suit a buyer who wants parts, service and financing handled in one place. Confirm current e-bike models in stock by phone, since the powersports inventory is the main focus.

Trail Access — eBikes Are Welcome, but 20 km/h Is the Limit

Yes, you can ride a pedal-assist e-bike on Fredericton's 120+ km of multi-use trails. By-Law No. L-19 treats an "E-Bicycle" as a bicycle, so e-bikes are welcome on the trail network — but section 5.3(1) caps speed at 20 km/h on any trail, and a fastened helmet is required.

City multi-use trails — e-bikes ride as bicycles Fredericton maintains 120+ km of developed multi-use trails on both sides of the Saint John River, plus 45 km of bike lanes and 39 km of bike routes (City of Fredericton, Cycling page, verified live June 2026). Under By-Law No. L-19 (Respecting Parklands and Trail Systems), an "E-Bicycle" is defined as a bike powered by human force and an electric motor, and the by-law states that an E-Bicycle "operates as a Bicycle with all operating requirements as placed on bicyclists being applicable." In plain terms: pedal-assist e-bikes are treated as bicycles on the trail network. Follow posted signage on each segment. Source: City of Fredericton By-Law No. L-19.
The 20 km/h speed cap — this is the rule that catches people By-Law No. L-19 caps speed across the network. Section 5.3(1) states: "The maximum speed upon any Trail System shall be 20 kilometers per hour, unless otherwise posted," and section 4.9(1) sets the same 20 km/h limit on "any Roadway in a Parkland." That is below the provincial 32 km/h motor cut-off — so even a fully legal PAB has to be ridden well within its assist range on Fredericton trails. The limit was set by amendment L-19.1 (enacted March 13, 2023). Watch for posted signs that may set a different speed on a given segment. Source: City of Fredericton By-Law No. L-19, ss.4.9(1) and 5.3(1).
Helmets on the trail — required by the bylaw, not just the province L-19 carries its own helmet rule on top of the provincial one. The by-law requires that no person ride a Bicycle, E-Bicycle, E-Scooter or E-Vehicle in any parkland or trail system "unless the person is wearing a bicycle helmet as defined in Sections 46.1 and 46.2 of Regulation 83-42 under the Motor Vehicle Act." There is no adult exemption. Source: City of Fredericton By-Law No. L-19.
Trail Access Takeaway Fredericton's 120+ km of multi-use trails are your reliable network — pedal-assist e-bikes ride there as bicycles. Keep it to 20 km/h (or whatever a sign posts), wear a fastened helmet, keep right, and sound a bell when overtaking. The trail welcomes the bike; the speed limit is the part to respect.

Sidewalks and Roads — Where the eBike Doesn't Belong

No, you cannot ride an e-bike on Fredericton sidewalks — the City states cycling is not permitted on City sidewalks, and police enforce it. Because a pedal-assist e-bike counts as a bicycle, that ban applies to e-bikes too. Ride instead on roads, in the 45 km of bike lanes, or on the multi-use trails.

Sidewalks — banned, and enforced The City of Fredericton states plainly that "cycling is not permitted on City sidewalks," and Fredericton police have publicly stepped up enforcement of the rule (CBC News reporting). Because a pedal-assist e-bike is treated as a bicycle, the sidewalk ban applies to e-bikes too — there is no e-bike loophole. Ride on the road, in a marked bike lane, or on the multi-use trail network instead. Source: fredericton.ca (Cycling).
Roads and bike lanes — open to compliant PABs A compliant power-assisted bicycle is treated as a bicycle on New Brunswick roads, so you may ride it on city streets and in Fredericton's 45 km of bike lanes and 39 km of bike routes, riding with traffic and signalling turns. The City's helmet requirement (mirroring the provincial Motor Vehicle Act) applies on the road as well. Source: fredericton.ca (Cycling); NB Motor Vehicle Act.

New Brunswick eBike Laws — What Makes an eBike Legal in Fredericton

New Brunswick regulates e-bikes under the federal Power-Assisted Bicycle framework: a motor no larger than 500W, assist that cuts off at 32 km/h, and working pedals. A compliant PAB is treated as a bicycle — no licence, registration or insurance — but a fastened helmet is mandatory for every rider at every age.

New Brunswick — federal Power-Assisted Bicycle (PAB) framework
  • Motor: Maximum 500W
  • Speed cut-off: Motor assist stops at 32 km/h
  • Pedals: Fully operable pedals required
  • Helmet: Approved bicycle helmet, chin strap fastened, mandatory for ALL ages (Motor Vehicle Act, ss.176-181.1)
  • Lighting: A white front light and a red rear light or reflector required when riding after dark
  • Licence / registration / insurance: Not required for a compliant PAB
  • Sidewalks: Prohibited in Fredericton (cycling is not permitted on City sidewalks)
  • Local trail rule: 20 km/h speed cap on Fredericton trails and parkland roadways (By-Law L-19)
New Brunswick regulates e-bikes under the federal Power-Assisted Bicycle framework, and a compliant PAB is treated as a bicycle, so all the rules that apply to cyclists apply to the rider. Note that New Brunswick's older Motor Vehicle Act language has historically referred to certain electric cycles as "motor driven cycles," and the province has signalled further e-bike regulation could follow — so confirm the current provincial position before you buy a higher-powered model. No municipal age, power or registration rule was found that overrides the provincial baseline; Fredericton's additions are the 20 km/h trail cap and the sidewalk ban.

NB Law Takeaway Buy a bike that meets the 500W / 32 km/h / working-pedals PAB standard and it's a bicycle in the eyes of New Brunswick law — no licence, plate or insurance. Wear a fastened helmet every ride at every age, light it up after dark, stay off sidewalks, and keep to 20 km/h on city trails. Get those right and you're legal everywhere a Fredericton cyclist can ride.

Where to Ride Your eBike in Fredericton

A compliant e-bike can be ridden anywhere a Fredericton cyclist rides: city streets, the 45 km of bike lanes, the 39 km of bike routes, and the 120+ km multi-use trail network (at 20 km/h). It cannot be ridden on sidewalks. Provincial and regional trails set their own posted rules.

  • City streets and bike lanes — permitted; a compliant PAB rides as a bicycle, so ride with traffic, signal turns, and use the 45 km of bike lanes and 39 km of bike routes where available.
  • Multi-use trails (120+ km) — open to pedal-assist e-bikes as bicycles under By-Law L-19; keep to the 20 km/h limit (or posted speed), keep right, and sound a bell when overtaking.
  • Sidewalks — off-limits; cycling is not permitted on City sidewalks, and the ban is enforced.
  • Parklands and parkland roadways — e-bikes are allowed where the by-law and signage permit, with the same 20 km/h cap and helmet requirement as the trail system.
  • Provincial and regional trails — rules vary by trail manager; the New Brunswick Trail / NB Trail (Sentier NB Trail) network and any conservation lands have their own posted rules, so confirm signage on each before riding an e-bike.

Can I ride my eBike on Fredericton's trails?

Yes. Under the City of Fredericton's By-Law No. L-19 (Respecting Parklands and Trail Systems), a pedal-assist e-bike is defined as an "E-Bicycle" that "operates as a Bicycle with all operating requirements as placed on bicyclists being applicable," so e-bikes are permitted on Fredericton's 120+ km multi-use trail network the same way conventional bicycles are. The catch is speed: section 5.3(1) caps the maximum speed on any Trail System at 20 km/h unless otherwise posted, and section 4.9(1) applies the same 20 km/h limit on any roadway within a parkland.

What are New Brunswick's eBike laws?

New Brunswick regulates e-bikes under the federal Power-Assisted Bicycle framework: a motor not exceeding 500W, motor assist that cuts off at 32 km/h, and fully operable pedals. A compliant PAB is treated as a bicycle, so no licence, registration or insurance is required. A properly fastened, approved bicycle helmet is mandatory for riders of all ages under the Motor Vehicle Act (sections 176-181.1), and e-bikes ridden after dark need a white front light and a red rear light or reflector. Always confirm the latest provincial details before you ride. Sources: New Brunswick Motor Vehicle Act, RSNB 1973, c. M-17; Velo NB cycling laws.

Do I need a helmet to ride an eBike in Fredericton?

Yes — twice over. New Brunswick's Motor Vehicle Act requires every person operating a bicycle (e-bikes included) to wear an approved bicycle helmet with the chin strap securely fastened, regardless of age. On top of that, the City's By-Law No. L-19 separately requires a helmet (as defined in Regulation 83-42, sections 46.1 and 46.2) for anyone riding a Bicycle, E-Bicycle or E-Scooter in any Fredericton parkland or trail system. There is no adult exemption. Sources: NB Motor Vehicle Act; City of Fredericton By-Law No. L-19.
