Fährt super ☺️
Trots relativt tjocka däck känns den trevlig att cykla på. Valde att sätta korgen bak. Ändrar jag mig så är det lätt att flytta den.
Inga problem att montera cykeln med enbart de medföljande verktygen men ”väskan” som de levereras i är rent skräp.
Jag valde den gröna varianten och gillar den skarpt.Solid construction. Decent easy to assemble. Nice to ride a bike on but don't think you should be able to use it as an electric mop and just cruise around. There are videos showing how to do to set it up for it for pure electric drive but it just doesn't work with mine. It requires me to be active on the pedals.
Despite the relatively thick tires, it feels pleasant to ride on. I chose to put the basket in the back. If I change my mind, it's easy to move it.
No problem assembling the bike with only the included tools but the “bag” that they come in is pure garbage.
I chose the green variety and like it sharply.
Mais la batterie se décharge viteGreat
But the battery drains quickly
War alles wie beschrieben guter und zügiger Aufbau auch das Fahren mit dem Bike Wunderbar würde mir wieder ein Bike von ENGWE zulegen auch meine Lebensgefährtin kauft nun so ein Bike kaufen.
Lieferung war Ebenfalls wie gewohnt sehr Gut .DankeHello, I was very skeptical at first and it took me a long time to buy such a bike I am now completely convinced that I did the right thing
Was everything as described Good and quick set-up including riding the bike Wonderful would buy me a bike from ENGWE again, too, my partner will now buy such a bike.
Delivery was also very good as usual. Thank you
Unser neues Auto hat keine Anhängerkupplung mehr und daher war ich auf der Suche nach einem faltbarer "Zweitrad", was ich in den Kofferraum bekomme. Mir war klar, dass ich gegenüber meinem "großem" E-Bike Abstriche machen muss. Aber dennoch ist es für mich - für den angedachten Zweck (Zweitrad) - okay.
Zusammenbau ist schnell gemacht. Die Kritik zur Frontlampe kann ich nachvollziehen. Hier wurde bemängelt, dass die Lampe, wenn der Korb vorne drauf montiert ist, durch die Vorderkabelfederung "runtergedrückt" wird und dann auf "der Seite" liegt. Ich habe die Lampe in der Aufnahme umgedreht (Lampenreflektor ist dann unten statt oben). Damit ist der Abstand zwischen Korb und Lampe groß genug und das Problem ist weg. Ansonsten ist alles gut. Das Fahrrad ist in der Tat etwas schwer, was ich bei dem Preis allerdings auch okay finde.
Ich habe jetzt meine erste Akkuladung leergefahren und auch das ist für mich okay. Es soll ja kein Tourenrad für mich sein. Ich bin 1,86 m, 110 kg schwer und damit ist mir klar, dass z.B. gerade bergauf, der Akku schon was leisten muss. Mit der ersten Ladung kam ich auf 60 km bzw. da sprang er um vom letzten Akkubalken auf kein Akkubalken. Ich denke, da ist noch ein bisschen mehr drin, aber auch das ist für mich okay. Für Städtebesichtigungen oder kleinen Harz-Touren, wo wir mit dem Auto "ranfahren", haben wir dann einen Umkreis von ca. 30 km, den wir erkunden können. Und sollte der Akku dann wirklich leer sein, geht es sicherlich auch ein paar Kilometer ohne. Der Akku kann einfach rausgenommen werden, so dass er dann bespielweise im Hotelzimmer für die nächste Tour wieder aufgeladen werden kann.
Anonsten ist es stabil, was mir aufgrund meiner Daten auch wichtig war und da ist das Fahrrad wirklich top; deswegen vielleicht auch etwas schwerer als von vielen gewünscht.
Ich bereue nichts und freue mich jetzt auf den Sommer mit den "Zweitrad"-Tagestouren. :-)Product images are sufficiently shown on the product page. They do not differ either, so here is the pure text form.
Our new car no longer has a trailer hitch and so I was looking for a foldable “second wheel”, which I could put in the trunk. It was clear to me that I had to make compromises compared to my “big” e-bike. But still it's okay for me - for the intended purpose (second bike).
Assembly is quick. I can understand the criticism of the front lamp. It was criticized here that when the basket is mounted on the front, the lamp is “pushed down” by the front cable suspension and is then “on the side”. I turned the lamp in the recording over (the lamp reflector is then at the bottom instead of at the top). This means that the distance between basket and lamp is large enough and the problem is gone. Otherwise, it's all good. The bike is indeed a bit heavy, but I think that's okay with the price.
I've now emptied my first battery charge and that's okay with me too. It's not supposed to be a touring bike for me. I am 1.86 m and weigh 110 kg, so it's clear to me that the battery has to do something, especially uphill. With the first charge, I reached 60 km or that's when he jumped over from the last battery bar to no battery bar. I think there's a bit more to it, but that's okay with me too. For city tours or small Harz tours, where we “drive over” by car, we then have a radius of approx. 30 km that we can explore. And should the battery really be empty, it will certainly go a few kilometers without it. The battery can simply be removed so that it can then be recharged for the next tour, for example in a hotel room.
Otherwise, it is stable, which was also important to me based on my data, and the bike is really great; that's why maybe a bit heavier than many would like.
I have no regrets and am now looking forward to summer with the “two-wheel” day trips. :-)
Die Tretunterstützung hab ich noch nicht kapiert weil auch bei langsamster Kurbeldrehzahl ohne Druck der Motor schon gut, je nach Fahrstufe, anschiebtdrives like the fire department and at a sensational price.
I haven't understood the pedal assistance yet because even at the slowest crank speed without pressure, the engine pushes well, depending on the gear
Wo kann ich die bekommen.
Ansonsten ist alles gut.Hello, it would be nice if I had German unconditional instructions.
Where can I get them.
Otherwise, it's all good.
Ich hatte zwar diese ganzen Tips über das "Geheimmenü" probiert, es aber schließlich so belassen, wie es war - lediglich den Gasgriff als Anschiebehilfe aktiviert. Das macht sich gut beim Anfahren in hohem Gang. Was nicht optimal ist, ist die Wirkung der augenscheinlich gut dimensionierten Schutzbleche - bei Pfützenfahrt fliegt der Dreck bis Sattelhöhe, zumindest über Rahmen, Hose und Akku. Und von hinten ebenfalls, wenn auch nicht so dolle. Abhilfe schafften je zwei originale Spritzlappen vom Simson S50/51, die sehr preiswert über Amazon kamen. Deren Rundung ist exakt so wie die Schutzblechbügel. In der Mitte der Gummis den Pippus abkneifen, da ein Löchlein rein, die untere Bügelhalterschraube durch eine etwas längere ersetzen, den Spritzschutz drunterschrauben und links und rechts zwei unauffällige Kabelbinder an die Haltebügel. Sieht wie serienmäßig aus und hilft perfekt. Sonst gibts nichts zu meckern. Das das Rad recht schwer ist, weiß man und der Zusammenbau nach Lieferung ist kein Hexenwerk (naja, das mitgelieferte Werkzeug habe ich gleich beiseite getan). Mit der vielen Verpackung muss man leben - wie sonst soll sowas von China hierher unbeschädigt bleiben.It is best to watch test videos on YouTube about this and as a comparison with other folding e-bikes and imagine your usage habits. Then do the price-performance comparison and decide. We don't need monster ranges or speed records (we also have “big” e-bikes), we want suspension comfort, city exploration, good driveability across fields, forest and even many cycle paths, and relatively easy storage in the back garage of the motorhome when the scooter is on the back. The Engwe, two of which we bought, are ideal for this. They drive comfortably, which we have tested in the meantime. I think at assistance level 3 or 4, you could certainly reach 60 km - but we will never empty them because the butt is more likely to give up (are both over 60).
Although I had tried all these tips about the “secret menu”, I finally left it as it was - just activated the gas grip as a push aid. This is good when starting off in high gear. What is not optimal is the effect of the apparently well-sized fenders - when driving in a puddle, the dirt flies up to saddle height, at least over the frame, pants and battery. And from behind too, though not so stupid. This was remedied by two original spray cloths from the Simson S50/51, which came very cheaply via Amazon. Its curve is exactly the same as the fender bars. Pinch off the Pippus in the middle of the rubbers, put a hole in it, replace the lower bracket holder screw with a slightly longer one, screw the splash guard down and two inconspicuous cable ties on the bracket on the left and right. It looks standard and helps perfectly. There is nothing else to complain about. We know that the bike is quite heavy and putting it together after delivery is not rocket science (well, I immediately put the included tools aside). You have to live with all that packaging - how else should something like that come here from China remain undamaged.
De levering was sneller dan aangekondigd.
Ik ben heel tevreden met mijn aankoop.The e-bike was perfectly packaged and everything was delivered in order.
Delivery was faster than announced.
I am very happy with my purchase.
Allerdings gibt es auch Schwächen: Das Gewicht des Fahrrads ist relativ hoch, was das Handling erschwert, insbesondere beim Zusammenklappen oder Tragen. Zudem könnten die Bremsen etwas kräftiger sein, vor allem bei Fahrten in unebenem Gelände.
Insgesamt ein solides Klapprad mit guter Ausstattung, aber mit Verbesserungspotenzial in einigen Bereichen.The e-bike impresses with a good range and wide 20-inch fat tires, which are suitable for various surfaces such as snow, sand or forest trails. The long battery life, which, depending on the driving style, is actually sufficient for extended tours, is particularly positive.
However, there are also weaknesses: The weight of the bike is relatively high, which makes handling difficult, especially when folded or carried. In addition, the brakes could be a bit stronger, especially when driving on rough terrain.
Overall, a solid folding bike with good equipment, but with room for improvement in some areas.
Verpackung,sehr gut.
Ein Akku,verliert viel schneller an Ladung.
Ich warte aber erst einmal 3 Ladezyklen ab.
Wenn es sich nicht bessert,muss ich mit dem Service sprechen.
Ansonsten,sind Fahrleistung und Umgang OK.Quick delivery of the two wheels, for an extra €100, to Spain.
Very good packaging.
A battery loses charge much faster.
But I'll wait for 3 charging cycles first.
If it doesn't improve, I need to talk to the service.
Otherwise, mileage and handling are OK.
Ich habe mir sogar einen zweiten Akku gekauft.I'm completely satisfied with the bike!
I even bought a second battery.
zufrieden und können nur gutes berichten der Zusammenbau war einfach ja und damit zufahren ist eine Freude es macht Spaß .A fast, well-packaged shipment also the driver super friendly, we are very
satisfied with our e-bikes and can only report good things the assembly was just yes and driving with them is a pleasure it's fun.
war über16 Kilometer. Die reine Freude! Zurückgekommen waren wir keineswegs platt! Die Motorunterstützung war großartig! Dennoch könnten die Räder etwas
leichter sein. Auch die Kettenschaltung für Unerfahrene muss geübt werden. Wünschenswert wäre da Nabenschaltung! Trotzdem,volle 5 Sterne!Two bikes were purchased. Since we are no longer resilient for reasons of age and health, we barely went on bike rides. The test drive
was over 16 kilometers. Pure joy! We came back by no means flat! The motor assistance was great! However, the wheels could be a bit
lighter. The derailleur for inexperienced people must also be practiced. Hub gear would be desirable there! Still, a full 5 stars!
Schnelle unkomplizierte Lieferung
Immer wieder gerne !
Top Verkäufer,sehr zu empfehlen <3Quality 1A
Fast, uncomplicated delivery
Always happy!
Top seller, highly recommended <3
Aber sonst . . . gut. Das Fahrzeug macht ein soliden Eindruck. Mal sehen, was die Zukunft zeigt.
Beim Pedalieren wird der Motor erst nach ein paar Pedal-Umdrehungen zugeschaltet. Das könnte schneller gehen. Wer jedoch aufs Pedalieren ganz verzichten möchte - kommt auf seine Kosten. Durch Umprogrammierung lässt es sich voll auf ein E-Bike umstellen. Allerdings benötigt man in Deutschland dazu eine Betriebserlaubnis, die vom Hersteller nicht geliefert wird (wäre nachzubessern) Doch mit ein wenig Mühe, kann man die für geringes Geld bei der Behörde beantragen, damit man das E-Bike auch wie vorgeschrieben versichern kann.Too bad - but all wishes can probably not be achieved at such a low price. At 34 kg, it is too heavy to be easily hoisted aboard my boat. I had to build a crane specifically to get the heavy e-bike on board. -
But otherwise. good. The vehicle makes a solid impression. Let's see what the future shows.
When pedaling, the motor is only switched on after a few pedal revolutions. It could be faster. However, if you want to completely refrain from pedaling - you will get your money's worth. By reprogramming, it can be fully converted to an e-bike. However, this requires an operating permit in Germany, which is not delivered by the manufacturer (would have to be corrected) But with a little effort, you can apply for it from the authorities for little money so that you can also insure the e-bike as required.
Die Lieferung ging schnell und ich hoffe, sie hat lange viel Freude damit. 👍The folding bike is for my wife and she is very satisfied.
The delivery was quick and I hope she will enjoy it for a long time. 👍
Trotz allem bin ich zufrieden, da ich mir selber helfen kann.Not bad for the money. Assembly and function instructions are very poor. You have to find out a lot for yourself. Unfortunately, the key must remain in the battery if you want to drive. I hope it doesn't break if it falls. The headlights are also a headache for me, especially when you want to install and use the basket at the front. Unfortunately, the bike rack cannot be adjusted either. You also have to find out for yourself how to fold it up.
In spite of everything, I am satisfied because I can help myself.
Pacco strutturato in modo ottimo eccetto il
Piccolo schermo per leggere la velocità che risultava privo di copertura leggermente sporco.
La bici si comporta molto bene ammortizzata bene . Unica pecca è leggermente pesante
Per caricare in macchina ecc....
In sostanza ho fatto un ottimo acquistoI'm a little late.
Perfectly structured package except for the
small screen to read the speed which was free of slightly dirty cover.
The bike behaves very well cushioned well. The only flaw is slightly heavy
For loading in the car etc...
Basically, I made a great purchase.
Ca 50 km Reichweite bei voll Untetsützung und 105 kgVery sturdy, very well made
Approx. 50 km range when fully supported and 105 kg
Wegen der deutschen Vorgaben ist Bike auf 25 km/h gedrosselt, sonst würde es 45 km/h fahren. Der Gasdrehgriff ist auch dran, aber kaputt - wegen der Vorgaben. Aber es gibt ansonsten nix zu reparieren an dem Bike. ich würde es tatsächlich empfehlen....I didn't expect much, should an e-bike be less than 1k for my son. I had expected “Chinaware.” But expecting again, there was a neatly packaged bike, which looks very high-quality and sturdy. It wasn't very complicated to complete and unfold either. Driving is great too... :-)
Due to German regulations, the bike is throttled to 25 km/h, otherwise it would travel 45 km/h. The throttle handle is also on, but broken - due to the requirements. But there is nothing else to repair on the bike. I would actually recommend it...
Nach der ersten Probefahrt bin ich begeistert von dem Rad. Einfache Bedienung, schönes Display welches in der Mitte des Lenkers montiert wird. Klare Kaufempfehlung.
Sogar die Schutzbleche sind noch Bleche u. kein Plastikschrott. Die Stabilität bezahlt man natürlich mit dem Gewicht. Es ist recht schwer, aber das sind E-Bikes nun einmal. Der Akku lässt sich gut herausnehmen da man den Sattel hochklappen kann. Im Vergleich zu meinem vorigen Klapprad, das in der gleichen Preislage war, ist dieses deutlich besser. Vor allem die Bremsen sind richtig gut.
Ich hoffe es lebt länger als mein erstes, das ist nach 6 Jahren einfach an der Schweißnaht durchgebrochen.
Seitenständer passt optimal, das Rad steht damit sehr stabil.The bike runs great and has a lot of thrust. I am pleasantly surprised by the quality. The price-performance ratio is right here. It arrived well packaged and easy to assemble. The front wheel, handlebars, saddle, cup holder, display and front luggage rack as well as the pedals must be installed.
After the first test ride, I am impressed by the bike. Easy to use, nice display which is mounted in the middle of the handlebars. Clear purchase recommendation.
Even the fenders are still sheets and not plastic scrap. Of course, you pay for stability with weight. It's pretty heavy, but that's what e-bikes are. The battery is easy to remove as you can fold up the saddle. Compared to my previous folding bike, which was in the same price range, this is significantly better. The brakes in particular are really good.
I hope it lives longer than my first one, it just broke through the weld seam after 6 years.
The side stand fits perfectly, making the bike very stable.
Also mal abwarten wenn das Rad mehrere km hinter sich hat.Gewicht 30kg. 200km gefahren alles top..Runs well with motor assistance. Steeply uphill, it reaches its limits. Descend and hold minus to assist in slide mode. It works well. Driving stability up to 50 km/h. Battery after 20 km 3 bars. Driving a lot uphill though. Downhill engine switched to 0.
So wait and see when the bike is several km behind it.Weight 30kg. 200km drove everything was great..
