What do you think about step through ebikes? I'm sold! Links to reviews of other Engwe bikes are in the description.

There is a stigma associated with step through bikes, it’s basically associated with being a girls bike but personally I couldn’t care less.

You can have the Throttle activated as long as it doesn't propel you faster than 3.7 mph! I was just reading all the stuff last night for my new one and come across the part about the 3.7 mph legal Throttle use! You can use it if you are older n have disabilities trying to put the power down to set off

That is actually a 48v bike with an 18amp controller that peaks at 960 watts and is rated at 750 watts continuous. In the USA this bike is technically illegal as it goes over 20mph by throttle alone. How could it be otherwise, the thing goes 25mph and flys uphill. If I were in the UK, I’d buy one in a second!! I live in the US and bought the class 2 Wired freedom (60v 2000 watts, 40mph when it is unlocked). Nice to have the power and speed if you need it.

Yeah it's good that it can be classed as 250w as plausible deniability is a beautiful thing 😂

Yea, they do need to look at this, power and ability to get up hills with larger folks on and equipment etc puts the base 250w bikes with the dinosaurs, we need at least 500 and throttles to make these bikes easier and safer to use

@e-VRC Год назад

Totally with you on this. No reason all bikes can't be 1000w but limited. They don't have to accelerate crazily either as some people think they must if they're that powerful.

@MikeBrown-dk7or Год назад

It's very hard to find the torque for the L20 which is most important for climbing hills. I suspect it is between 40 and 50 nm when a Cube bike with a Bosch motor has 70 to 80 nm. It is however more than twice the price. It's almost as if Engwe and Ado etc hide the torque figures.

Probably on the pavement or in a bike lane with most of the other people who use motorised bikes. Is it a lack of physical fitness thing or just cba getting insurance, taking a test and riding a proper motorbike? I suppose ebike users would have to be accountable then and that wouldn't do.

@Apostate-51 Год назад

Your reviews are very good. I'd love for you to do one on Engwe's Engine X to see how it compares to this L20 and the Engine Pro. I know I don't want either the 750w EP2 Pro or Engine Pro as I don't want it confiscated and to be fined etc. I'm 16 and a half stone, and need something that's going to get me and some cargo up the steep hills hereabouts. The Engine X is marked as having a 250W motor but it can be unlocked as can its throttle. I'd love to see you put it through your hill test.

@JudeTheYoutubePoopersubscribe Год назад

The engine x is the same as the ep-2 pro basically. The engine pro is the bike you want if you are trying to get a lot of weight up a steep hill.

@e-VRC Год назад

Thanks! I think the Engine X is a similar situation to the L20 where it will be faster and more torquey than the motor badge would suggest. So depends on whether you want cargo or folding. I prefer the L20 shape. I still have 2 of their bikes to review I might ask for the X when I'm done.

it probably is a 250watt motor, but its also probably a 36 volt motor with a 48 volt controller and battery, that would make it go alot faster, but still keeps it legal, you will just burn out the motor faster

@Destide Год назад

I love a utiltarian e-bike especailly as things like aero and weight become less important. Assist speed of 15.5 is fine for me it's about 60% of my non assisted speed and I usually cruise about 16mph analgoue so for me it's about eliminating the hills and allowing me to not question adventures and taking stuff to work. 20mph just causes too much strain on my compenents and it stops becoming an assist and just becomes the primary power of motion which feels disengaged and defeates the point of being on the bike for me.

@62shunto Год назад

The max speed in the uk is 70mph, if your so determined to force limited speed on ebikes, insurance license etc then you must then consider all cars have limiter fitted to 70mph, after all they are already on HGV PCV and ebikes, its time then to fit them to cars.

@pwood5733 Год назад

The bike could still be limited to 15mph but the regulations need to allow more torque for climbing and a speed limited throttle if they want us out of our cars. The current 250w are not useful enough so sadly i choose any of my three gas guzzlers for most trips

By the sound the bike is making I would say it is a planetary geared motor which gives more torque than a basic hub motor and this can be up to 3 times greater. Showing better performance on hills. Planetary geared motors will need maintenance before a hub motor. There is always a sacrifice for basic power.

This bike has a lot in common to the RadRunner plus. I got the lower model of RadRunner 2 and I love it. The hills in my area that used to give me issues basically have melted away with that ebike. It is properly set to Canada's class 2 specification with a 500w motor and 32kph/20mph limiter on it. Would be nice to have the US limit of 750w but I feel bad where you are you are limited to only 250w. That said with the speed you were getting you clearly were doing more than 250w and it shows. In your own test data it kept up with another 750w bike.

I have the ep-2 - I'd weigh up how much you really need the folding feature as it kinda messes with the geometry of the bike - a bit narrow/wobbly/funny handlebar angle, and it's pretty heavy. looking at this L20 I'd happily have bought it instead of the ep2 - i like the front rack and green colour more

@freemorox5896 9 месяцев назад

This is the bike i want...but the foldability of the PVY just tips it for me. I live in a flat and Im hoping to take it on the train to the coast at some point

Great review and if I hadn't bought the engine pro, which I love I would get the L20 the pink one of course, keep up the good work and I look forward to the next video, and I think the ebike speed should be increased to 20 and a throttle should be allowed its dangerous without...also if you have any recommendations for 20 by 4 tyres for my engine pro I would appreciate the advice thanks

How can it be legal if it has a throttle? I have the EP2 Pro. I was told it can’t even have one attached even if it’s not connected. Great video btw

@stardustuk7 Год назад

Hi, I've just started following you on tiktok, watched most of your ebike reviews on RU-vid too. Last year I broke my left leg in three places and I'm just getting back into bike riding again. I've had ebikes in the past, but I'm considering getting another in the future as bike riding (unless uphill) is less painful than walking, I'm also stupid slow at walking too! I've been wanting the Engwe L20, but my eldest son like how the Engwe Engine pro looks more and thinks I should get that instead. I'm not new to ebikes and had a 1000w ebike in the past and used it to get to and from work. Which would you recommend, ignoring the price? I'm thinking of getting a DYU D3F just for now until I find a job, then upgrade. Thanks for reading. 😁 Stella. P. S. Have you seen the niubility B14S?

@e-VRC Год назад

Hey! Yeah I saw that a minute ago 😂😂 ooh good question. I love the L20 but technically the Engine Pro is the higher spec bike: better gears, brakes, speed. I rarely fold it but it can be handy. I personally prefer the shape of the L20 and the better handlebars means it's easier to control. You can change the engine pro handlebars though and it looks amazing when you do. D3f is a decent escooter-y ebike, reviewed it not too long ago. Welcome back to ebiking 🤟🤟

These bikes need some easy quick way to reset the controller. I' love to ride it unlocked but i don't want it taken of me because it's got too much power not because i'm going too fast. It doesn't take any mistakes by the rider - if you commute the same route over and over people can target you and make complaints. Believe me

My e-bike cuts out at 37mph but there are always people overtaking me an stuff, I don’t see why I can’t have it as fast is possible, it is a single person vehicle that’s lightweight so has no wear and tear on the road so shouldn’t pay for the use of a road, the pedals will keep it a bike and not a motorbike so if you scuff a car then the insurance is normally always covered via no claims maintained, the only accidents I’ve seen is when people go after them like they are on a motorbike and cause an accident, they have so many safety features it makes it safer than a normal cycle bike no doubt, would you rather someone throwing themselves fully into a bike to get 30mph and is more at risk of an accident he’s so occupied, or would you rather see someone 30-40mph sitting totally relaxed and I’m control of the bike fully? It’s a no brainer, they are safer, they are eco friendly, bringing in laws to restrict the use of these will backfire and show the government’s hypocrisy, stating it wants more people to take up green energy or low carbon emissions, I have zero carbon emissions, I live in Scotland, we use no fossil fuel where I am
