BirdBike Finally Arrives in Australia

Miami, Florida

Florida company Bird Global last month released its BirdBike in the Australian market, for sale through some of the country’s largest appliance and electrical retailers.

A year after BirdBikes were launched into overseas markets, Bird announced its two models of the e-bike will be sold through JB Hi-Fi, Harvey Norman and Bike Exchange, as well as its own Australian website, Birdbike.com.au.

Both models feature a 250-watt Bafang rear-hub motor, a battery range of 100km range, seven-speed Shimano drivetrain, integrated LED lights, and a backlit handlebar dash display. They also connect via Bluetooth to the Bird app for added security alarm and battery controls.

Priced at $3,699 in Australia, BirdBike comes in the step-through ‘V-Frame’, which is available now, and the step-over ‘A-Frame’ set to arrive here in summer.

The prominent e-bike and e-scooter share service operator attracted plenty of attention last year when it announced it would be releasing an e-bike for private sale.
