Hey! You bought this bike from gearbest? Order was delivered by UPS? Was it delivered at your door or you had to get it from a UPS access point? Any additional taxes that you had to pay?
Hey, I bought it from aliexpress since it was out of stock from gearbest. It was delivered by dhl if I recall correctly straight to my door. As for taxes I didn't have to pay any import duty/tax since I picked a seller from EU. If you're in the EU and the product comes from an EU nation you should be good. If you're outside the EU, Id suggest trying to contact the seller first
Is that 47.2km on *just* the throttle? I just got back from a ride on my Samebike LO26 350W PAS 3, I pedalled the whole way (minimal hills) and the battery died completely at 30km!
I basically fake pedalled whenever there were cops around (car or walking) just to avoid being stopped. I’d say give or take 1km, during the ride to the wind was against my back so it was easier for the bike to push me forwards. Did you do this over the winter? Batteries tend not to do well in cold weather and you get more range when it’s hot out. I’ve been averaging 37 to 40km during the winter. You also have to keep in mind that pedalling while pas is on still drains a lot specially if you’re going at a high speed, it’s pretty much exactly like having the throttle engaged. You probably want to stop pedalling for a bit and just cruise to preserve battery specially if it’s downhill. Last your weight will also come into factor when trying to get the most out of your battery. Hope this sort of helps, just use range videos like these as a reference since a lot of factors have an affect on battery life.
Main thing is the wattage, bigger motor which means its a tiny bit stronger power wise... acceleration, top speed and hill climbing will be better. Other difference is the types of wheels the 500w comes with spoke wheels and a thumb throttle, the 350w has mag wheels and a twist throttle. Apart from those the bike should be identical, comfort and handling wise :)
The lower the power assist the more gradual the power delivery is which means you'll use less power, I just find that for me I tend to get longer ranges using the lower power assists. It won't matter too much though if you're going at full speed all the time!
@@5doolar hey man it's a different display so the options will be different. I'll make a small video later on today for you showing you the engwe settings, did resetting your bike do nothing?
@@5doolar oh this display is s830 different from the m5. The instructions I said to you to reset would be different, my engwe has the yl80c so it would be different again
I actually got the bike so that my brother and I have bikes we can use. I already have a fat bike and didn't want to get another one, also the riding stance for both also differs I actually prefer the riding position of this bike compared to the engwe ep-2. I guess it's cause of all the time I was riding a mountain bike when I was a teen too used to it you know.
JeffyTology when I get the rockwheel and the same bike I might sell the rockwheel off and get your one in white for the misus coz u said it’s 18kg and that’s a benefit
@@mrkiller1980 yeah the Samebike 20LVXD30 is so much lighter and the seat and handlebars are actually a lot lower. the thinner wheels also means that the bike is slightly lower as well! It's for my aunt actually and I was just testing it for her since I'm the bike guy haha
@@Edibds is there a lot of hills? And are they steep ? Also what type of riding are you gonna do (pedal assisted or pure motor only) You should comfortably hit 40 to 50km (50 if you’re doing pedal assist) depending on the temperature outside.
Can you take out the battery?

Thanks alot! Ive ordered it from gearbest from poland. Just wanted to confirm it again. So nice of you!

I'm actually working on that! Got the shots script ready just waiting for the weather to clear up so I can record videos :)
its up :)

Could you please let me know where you purchased the engwe bike from I live in Dublin and can't find any one who sells them thanks
Hey, I got them from Aliexpress, takes about 30-40 days to come
@@JeffyTology thanks pal
@@Homerseven7 I'd recommend that you look the reviews of the seller first!
what is the difference of 350w and 500w version pls ?
Main thing is the wattage, bigger motor which means its a tiny bit stronger power wise... acceleration, top speed and hill climbing will be better.
Other difference is the types of wheels the 500w comes with spoke wheels and a thumb throttle, the 350w has mag wheels and a twist throttle.

@@JeffyTology ok thanks you for reply 👌🏼
@@JeffyTology is the twist throttle better? Like if you want to use it for like 30 minutes, isnt pushing a button the whole time annoying?
What's the afvantages of PAS3 vs lets say 5?thx in advance

Hey mate share with me the default values. I bet they are the same of the engwe
@@5doolar hey man it's a different display so the options will be different. I'll make a small video later on today for you showing you the engwe settings, did resetting your bike do nothing?
@@JeffyTology my display is the M5 . I will try the reset today

Max tall for this bike You think it is?
The seat goes up pretty high about 87cm but I’m not sure what specific height would be a limit for a person
For some reason that bike looks like a mum bike . Hence I got the fat tire version. Do u like the bike and why did u get it?
I actually got the bike so that my brother and I have bikes we can use.

What is your weight?
80/85 Kg back then :)
Sorry is this the 350w one?
It’s the 500w version :) you should get similar or more range from the 350w since you’re using less power
@@JeffyTology really? I would commute 20km plus 20km back home so the 350w would be ok do you think?
@@Edibds is there a lot of hills? And are they steep ? Also what type of riding are you gonna do (pedal assisted or pure motor only)
You should comfortably hit 40 to 50km (50 if you’re doing pedal assist) depending on the temperature outside.
@@JeffyTology thank you man I think I will go for this one. Thanks a million
@@Edibds no problem! It’s decent electric bike, just don’t forget it’s a bike and pedal! :D
