- Engwe EP-2 Pro
- Engwe Engine Pro
- Engwe T14
We recommend clicking the button below to visit Engwe’s official website and check out the full range of e-bikes available at the moment.
Engwe EP-2 Pro
Max range: 28-34mi (45-55km) with throttle. 90-110km (55-68mi) pedal-assist range.
MSRP: $1,399
- Motor: 750W, 80Nm
- Battery: 48V 12.8Ah 615Wh
- Weight Capacity: 330lbs
- Weight: 70lbs (32kg)
- Fits riders 5’2″ – 6’5″
The EP-2 Pro is a high-performing yet affordable folding 750W eBike that is optimized for urban commuters and can tackle almost anything else you throw at it.
This Engwe bike comes 95% pre-assembled, you only need to install the pedals. For power, you can rely on a large motor with 500W / Peak 750W modes. From these modes, users can choose three settings: just the throttle, five levels of pedal-assistance, or good old-fashioned leg power.
The Engwe EP 2 electric bike uses a fully integrated battery with in-frame charging & removable charging depending on your needs. The battery has 12.8Ah which delivers a max range of 45 miles on the lowest setting.
No posts for this criteria.Impressively, the EP-2 folds in 10 seconds due to the careful engineering of the folding mechanisms. Once folded, the bike stays secure during transport and storage.
Other notable components on this bike are the powerful mechanical disc brakes, a 7-speed drivetrain to support the motor, 4″ wide ride-smoothing fat tires, lockable 60mm front fork suspension, and integrated 48V LED lights to help keep you safe in the dark.
Engwe Engine Pro 2.0
A full-suspension folding electric bike
MSRP: $1,699
- Battery: 48V 12.8Ah Battery – 615Wh
- Motor: 750W, 80Nm
- Gears: 8-speed
- Thumb throttle
- Weight: 69 lbs
- Fits riders 5’2″ to 6’4″
Engwe’s Engine Pro folding eBike is the company’s highest-performing model due to the full suspension design combined with their typical off-road optimized components.
Despite the addition of rear shock suspension, this e-bike is actually lighter than what we have seen in the front suspension Engwe EP 2 review. It also has a 60mm travel fork.
Paired with the suspension on this bike are Tektro hydraulic disc brakes, 4″ Chaoyang fat tires, and a large 8-speed drivetrain that supports the powerful motor.
The motor itself has two modes, making it a 750W or 500W eBike with a throttle. This is combined with the 12.8Ah battery which can last up to 45 miles on eco pedal assistance.
Finally, the alloy frame can support up to 330lbs and folds down in just 10 seconds with one of the most effective folding mechanisms we’ve seen on a bike in this price range. The Engine pro really is an amazing deal for just $1700.
Engwe Bikes T14
A mini folding e-bike
MSRP: $499
- 350W motor
- 48V 10Ah battery, range up to 22 mi (with throttle)
- 14×2.125″ tires
- Max capacity: 220 lbs
- Weight: 50 lbs
The T14 is Engwe’s mini folding electric bike. This model is the dream for riders that value pure convenience without sacrificing power and performance.
This is the most lightweight bike available from Engwe, weighing just over 50 lbs. It uses a 350W high-speed motor paired with a huge 10Ah battery that provides max ranges of 22 miles if you’re relying on throttle alone. Unfortunately, it has a long charge time of 6-10 hours.
An unusual feature of this bike is the single-speed drive. Pedaling it will take a bit more effort if you run out of battery, but the good news is that the bike is foldable, so you can take it inside when you get to work and charge it before your trip home.
Other notable additions to this bike are the versatile 2.125″ tires, the Comfort Shock Absorption front fork suspension, aluminum alloy frame, and large 220lb payload capacity.
Finally, the bike comes fully equipped with a rack and fenders for commuter convenience. You can also purchase a waterproof bike bag or extra battery from the Engwe bike store online.
Engwe EP2-Pro vs Engwe Engine Pro
The Engine Pro and EP-2 Pro are very similar in many ways, but the key differences are quite significant and result in a large $500 price difference.
The Engine Pro comes with full suspension as opposed to the fork suspension found on the EP-2. This is advantageous for any riders looking for performance gains off-road. The full suspension allows this bike to tackle tougher trails more comfortably. However, there will be a slight speed loss on normal roads.
The other two differences are seen in the brakes and the drivetrain. The Engine Pro has an extra gear choice with its 8-speed cassette and it also has upgraded hydraulic disc brakes which have more stopping power than mechanical alternatives.
Things to keep in mind
- Avoid battery under voltage!
- Keep the battery charging point away from any metal objects.
Even when not in use, try to keep the battery levels above the minimum. Charging at least once a month will be enough. In an ideal world, recharging after each ride can be beneficial for long-term use.
