Samebike M20 Fat Tire Retro Ebike
Canada is one of the fastest-growing electric bike markets in the world — and the reasons are straightforward: gas prices, urban congestion, long distances between errands, and winters that make a narrow-tired bike impractical for half the year. An electric bike solves most of those problems at once. The bikes on this page span everything from 500W commuters from $1,099 to dual-motor AWD machines and trikes up to $6,899 — fat tire for snow and gravel, folding for apartments and transit, step-thru for easy mounting, cargo for families and delivery, mountain for trails, and electric trikes for stability. Every one ships free across Canada.
This is not a curated short-list. It is a broad shelf — 100+ electric bikes, each with Canadian support. If you know what you want, filter by type below. If you’re still deciding, the buying guide underneath the products will tell you exactly which category fits your terrain, budget, and province.

Quick Answer
An electric bike in Canada is a bicycle fitted with an electric motor that assists pedalling. Under most provincial rules, a road-legal model has a motor rated at 500W or less and cuts assist off at 32 km/h. This collection lists 100+ models — fat tire, folding, step-thru, cargo, mountain, trike, hunting, and dual-motor — ranging from $1,099 to $6,899 CAD, all with free Canada-wide shipping and real Canadian support.
Electric Bike Laws in Canada — What’s Road-Legal
Canada regulates electric bikes at the provincial level. The federal Power-Assisted Bicycle (PAB) definition was repealed in February 2021, and each province now sets its own rules. In most provinces, a road-legal electric bike must have a motor rated at 500W or less, assist that cuts off at or before 32 km/h, functional pedals, and no modifications that disable the assist cutoff. Higher-power bikes (750W, 1000W, AWD dual-motor) are outside those definitions, so they are not bicycles on public roads; ride them on private land with permission, or where your province’s off-road rules allow.
Helmet requirements, age rules, and throttle permissions vary significantly by province. For the full picture:
Rule of Thumb
500W motor + 32 km/h cutoff + working pedals: the limits the provincial rules converge on (Nova Scotia’s statute says 30 km/h). Every product listing on Zeus states the motor rating as shipped; where a maker says the speed or power cap can be raised or unlocked, whether an adjustable cap qualifies is not settled. Above 500W, a bike is outside every provincial e-bike definition: ride it on private land with permission, or where your province’s off-road rules allow. When in doubt, call us at 1-866-938-7580 and we’ll confirm for your specific province.

How Much Does an Electric Bike Cost in Canada?
Canadian eBike prices have come down significantly over the past three years as supply chains normalised and the market matured. The honest picture in 2026:
- Under $1,500: Entry-level fat tire and folding bikes. Cadence-sensor motors, mechanical or basic hydraulic disc brakes. Suitable for casual riding and flat urban commutes. Not built for winter or hills.
- $1,500–$2,500: The largest segment. Hydraulic disc brakes become standard, step-thru frames, better batteries (500–720 Wh), and more refined components. Most year-round commuters live here.
- $2,500–$3,500: Mid-drive motors, torque sensors, dual batteries, full suspension. Performance buyers and utility riders (cargo, hunting) buy here.
- $3,500+: AWD dual-motor builds, high-capacity battery packs (1000–2000+ Wh), premium suspension. Serious off-road, extreme winter, and high-mileage riders.
All prices on Zeus are in Canadian dollars, include free shipping, and include the manufacturer warranty. No conversion, no surprise brokerage fees.

After the Rad Power Bikes Chapter 11 bankruptcy (December 2025), the brand’s new owner says it has no obligation to provide warranty or service on bikes bought before December 15, 2025, and the Vancouver store closed. If you’re replacing a Rad or were about to buy one, see our honest Rad Power alternatives guide. The lesson is simple: who answers the phone when something breaks matters more than the sticker price.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are electric bikes legal in Canada?
Yes — electric bikes with a motor rated at 500W or less and assist that cuts off at 32 km/h are legal to ride on public roads in most Canadian provinces, treated similarly to bicycles. Helmet rules and age minimums vary by province. Higher-power models (750W+) are outside those definitions: private land with permission, or where your province’s off-road rules allow. The federal PAB definition was repealed in February 2021, so your specific province’s rules now apply. See Zeus’s provincial law guides for the full rules in your area.
Do I need a licence or insurance for an electric bike in Canada?
For a 500W PAB (road-legal eBike), no licence or insurance is required in most provinces — it is treated like a bicycle. Rules vary: some provinces require a helmet, some set a minimum age, and a few have additional requirements for throttle-equipped models. For higher-power off-road builds, the classification changes and requirements may apply. Check the law guide for your province before riding on public roads.
How much does an electric bike cost in Canada?
At Zeus, electric bikes run from $1,099 to $6,899 CAD (October 2026): folding models from $1,099, fat-tire and step-through models from $1,199, trikes from $1,699 and dual-motor AWD builds from $1,899. All Zeus prices are in Canadian dollars and include free Canada-wide shipping.
What is the best electric bike for Canadian winters?
For Canadian winter riding, fat tire electric bikes (4.0″+ wide tyres) provide the best traction on snow, slush, and ice. Look for hydraulic disc brakes (consistent in cold and wet), a battery rated for cold weather, fenders, and a motor matched to your terrain.
