The fact you went up a curb and the bike then started to work makes me think it's a loose wire or connection but I would send it back and ask either for a replacement or your money back then they will act! Great Video Jon no-one likes a dud
Thank you for your honest reviews 😎
Just got one of these bikes, was looking for foldable. Wish i would of seen your channel first. Hopefully i have better luck so far i haven't had issues and got up to the 28mph pretty easily. Really digging your channel keep it up.
Welcome aboard!
Put the wheel size to 22 inch as Speedo more accurate due to fat tires. Power on hold + and - then hold - and the I side button to get into speed restriction and tire size LD. The assist level is - + and then - + and then Vol to change assist level.
I purchased the ENgWe Engine Pro and it is working well so far.. I believe that I used your name for the discount code. It arrived within a week. The only issue I had was hooking up the handlebar post to the fork frame. It came apart after removing the white plastic piece. Then I had loose travel between the parts. Good Luck and Hopefully they replaced your bad lemon bike
Man, you're Killin it on those subs. Congratulations on the growth.
Thank you
Sorry to see this, but your vids are top notch. You are honest with your experiences on these bikes. This is what the ebike industry needs. If ebike manufactures want to survive they have to up their quality control and customer service.
Thank you I really appreciate it and overall I seen positive reviews everywhere I just think I got a bad unit. But after I sent the first message to the company I feel like if a bike comes broken there should be a way of them sending out a replacement bike and having that shipping company pick up that current bike from you to send back to the company. The average person is not going to replace a dead motor or a controller even if it’s a free replacement.
@@MrCentralDriver get a Fiido D21! 💯👍
Brilliant video. You are exactly right about this bike, it is a piece of crap. I purchased this bike after watching all the reviews about it going 28MPH which is complete rubbish, the fastest it goes is about 22MPH and that's going downhill. I bet a regular bike would go faster without any motor as going down hill, you will always pick up momentum. This bike is cheaply made and as heavy AF, the throttle use is a joke cause it kills your battery very quickly , even when not using the throttle the battery doesn't last very long and you definitely have to charge it after each ride. My bike also arrived with a damaged battery that couldn't be removed from the bike and also a damaged back light that was faulty. I've contacted Engwe and all they Doris send toy a stupid video showing you how to fix a problem that shouldn't have been there in the first place, total B.S. Luckerly I purchased this bike through PayPal so gonna get my money back . Just go on trust pilot and you will see all the negative reviews about this useless machine. I personally think all the positive reviews of this bike are fake and 100 % paid for by Engwe and the reviewers who are accepting this deal are just selling their soul for a few pounds and some subscriptions which is terrible. I wouldn't reccomed anyone to get this bike and don't belive the hyped up reviews saying it goes really fast and all that, any bike goes fast going down hill unless your holding the brakes going down. This company is selling faulty, damaged bikes and when you try to get a refund they mess you around and have you jump through lots of hoops. Just look at their return policy and you will see what I mean. Any excuse no to refund you. Thanks for your honest review mate. You kept it real but in this day and age , companies don't like reviewers like you because you tell the truth. Well done for that, your on the right path, don't follow these other reviewers and sell you soul for some pounds. 👊🏽
Central grooves or cut-outs in cycling saddles not only help to alleviate soft tissue pressure in the genital area for riders but can also help to reduce the pressure on the perineal area (men) or the pubic bone arch (women). They can also add ventilation but it's really for comfort
Thanks for the info
Listen to this!!! bought the same bike with 2 baterries.With original battery that came in bike everything is perfectly well.But with other battery I have pretty similar problem as you...not egzactly the same...my problem is that when baterry is around 30 per cent more then it cut off!So it only may be the battery problem in my case!Max speed may reech 28 miles,but in most situations it is around 26 miles.You must in settings allow 100 per cent ...it is by default at 96 I think.
Greetings from Europe,Croatia!
I got mine a few weeks ago and I really cant fault it, from delivery, packaging, assembly and on the road i,ll give it 10 out of 10, I got mine for £790 GBP delivered, its a fantastic piece of kit for the money, like most things you probably just got a bad one.
We’ll that sucks , I had such high hopes for this bike . It looks kewl but heck I am not getting them now I was going to get three of them for the family but not anymore . Thanks for the review .
They are taking care of me so I’ll have N update down the road but they have been very great. They informed me that they’ve only had three incidents of bad motors on the last thousand bikes that they’ve had. So stay tuned I have more videos to put out down the road with them.
@@MrCentralDriver it’s all nice but you would think since they are sending a bike to an influencer they would at least make sure it works properly as advertised . Will wait for an updated video . Thanks man
retro, look at the bike reviews for Letric 2.0 XP,
noone I watch on CZcams is having problems, its a 500W motor 800W peak, on paper lower than this, but it stays at max Class2 speed 20mph all day,
and can be unlocked to class 3 26-28mph, 230 lb guys making it uphill 9 miles, there are YT videos on adding a 2nd battery for more range,
Lectric XP 2.0 Step-thru seems to meet 95% of ebike needs, mine comes in 4 days, they built so many the past 2 years they know how to make sure you get something good.
Im looking for a YT commentator who got a bad one I cant find it.
A few people on ebikeforums has a controller go out after 3000-4000 miles and Lectric is big enough to have these in stock, its kinda like buying the Camaro over a Mustang if youre a car guy and know anything about resale and brand value.
If you want to throw it in the back of the SUV and drive to the middle of nowhere and know it will work, get the Lectric XP 2.0
Hallo zusammen, ich habe ein Engwe EP pro 2 gekauft, ich habe 300 km in weniger als 15 Tagen zurückgelegt, ich hatte im Moment keine Probleme, das Fahrrad ist ziemlich gut, ich habe seine Geschwindigkeit auf 35 km/h erhöht, aber es ist illegal in Deutschland, viel Spaß beim Fahren.
That issue, and the company's careless response is very concerning. I hope I dont encounter the same problem with mine. Finished assembly tonight. Riding it for the first time tomorrow.
Lmk
Ayo MrCentraldriver - I appreciate the content. Just noticed, though, that your Super73 discount link isn’t valid? I am in the market and I’m looking at this specific bike quite a bit. You getting another link any time soon? If so, I’ll wait to purchase so I can give you credit (and possibly get a discount). Cheers!
I will try contacting them about that.
Im getting the Lectric XP 2.0 in a week.
Am looking at getting this as a 2nd bike but the quality control leaves me very unimpressed.
Its like they ship whatever they assemble and dont test, and hope enough people ignore the crap to make it worth its while.
I love the specs here, but they havent learned quality control, at least Lectric has learned and doesnt ship bikes that may or may not be garbage, and you the customer has to sort it out with troubleshooting, and hoping they send a good replacement part.
Testers have time for this rework bullshit during business hours, people working 8-5 do not! We don't want to waste money but want something that works out of the box 95% of the time.
This doesn't sound like it works out of the box even 40% of the time.
I fixed one that the cable where the controller was loose. This bike also known for the battery itself the contacts where just touching on the outside pins just bend over and middle pins were soldered. So had to run wire and solder it correctly. Motor use to cut out randomly. Check battery connections. Is a common problem.
It a shame as bike ride Nicely and frame heavy duty. I like the bike just can not recommend to anyone else as most are not going to open where to controller to check connections and repair battery connections. They need to step up QA for sure is main issues with this bike. Did fix issues and does get up to 25 to 28 once resolve issues.
That sucks. This is good information but nobody should have to do this when getting a new bike so I agree with you. And that’s why I did my review the way I did but it also sold very good using my code so people took the chance
you have to unplug a greyish white wire to derestrict it my son has an ix4 just bought it I opened it up and unplugged the black wire on my sons was well hidden and it flys at said speed stated also took ages too find to derestrict but it works trust me
Never heard of any reviewer doing this on this ebike. Company also never mentioned nothing ?
Hi i had to come back to this video because i said it wrong. its : hold both breaks in and full trotle at the same time .keep it like that and turn the bike on . You will see error 22 . Now turn bike off and back on . It has unlocked your max speed.
😅 darn sucks for that company. They should have said OK we will send another and arrange for pick up. They should have tested before sending out for a review.
If you want a good foldable bike I have a aventon sinch in white i would definitely recommend it i been riding it for a couple months now with no problems at all its a great bike for the money
Ur used to the Surron and SUPER72 bikes 😆
Well i buyed the upgraded version in June and with only 60 km is giving me the error "E 33" i lose the power from the motor but the LCD still shows information, the speedomter marks 00 km per hour even if im still pedeling with no assist. I Contacted the company and it took me about 2 days to get a reply. Now mailing back and foward with ussless resolutions that takes about 2 days to get a reply, I DO NOT RECOMMEND BUYING FROM THIS COMPANY, the customer suport is awful and i got the feeling that im gonna burn with 1k euros... There shouldn't be necessary was a client replace parts like the motor controler or the motor itself, im just gonna try to get a refund asap.
You need to change your inch diameter in settings and change your power from 96% to 100% for max assist mode and you will go 28 miles a hours easy
My power was at 99% I tested the bike at 95-99-100%. Also maxed out the top speed. The wheel settings were 22 and 24 that I tested out. The bike obviously had issues as showed in the video
I bought mine recently and it came with a bunch of issues. throttle not working. peddle assist stopped working. The bike had multiple marks from delivery. and now customer service will no longer answer my emails. If i want to return it costs me 100 euro. oh and i was told to replace everything myself and to use touch up pen for the marks
On a another CZcams channel Andy Kirby he has the exact same ebike , he modifys it with bmx handlebars new seat ,then he added a 1500w motor
I seen that!
love the channel you know any fat tire bike’s like these under 800$ you would recommend something with a little speed?
Under 800 with speed no. Ride 1 up has some affordable bikes at $1000 that do a solid 28mph. I have a video with a discount code. But not many bikes under 1000 that have speed
@@MrCentralDriver hey thanks a lot I’ll check them out now .!!! and I’ll be sure to stay tuned to the channel 😎🫡.
The error 24 likely due to battery as they screwed up and solder wires to middle and push the two outer contacts towards the middle ones to make connection as only relying on small solder connection or push over and breaks contact when vibration occurs. Solder a wire over from middle pins to the outer pins make sure positive is positive and negative to negative side and check controller connections. If you have the 13 max amp controller contact them tell them does come on and they sent over the 19 amp controller, it will fit fine just tuck wires towards side and top and plate will go on. Silicone and heatshink the pins on the contact plate from controller to battery.
Now keep wires in battery pack in middle as a tight fit and key switch is over the outer pins. Just solder a wire from middle to outer pins and towards center of pin instead of above, inside of above pins so clearance and just wrap wire around it before soldering it for strength. Silicone it using the non corrosive type and let it cure and put battery back together.
I fixed 3 of this same eBike and the same issue.
good info!
I had similar isues; the bike kept tunrning itself off. I tried replacing the switch thinking that was the problem, but it didn"d work. What work for me was completely removing the BMS, and installing a 30A inline fuse. I haven't had any isues since then ( note, do not let the battery get too low before charging again).
thanks for the info
whats the bms?
If it's cutting out, other possible things can be a switch in a brake lever acting up, lose wiring where the controller is located, and of course a bad motor as suggested, but could at least be worth disconnecting all removeable connections, reconnect, if that don't work, smack the brake levers good, at least you get some aggression out, lol.
The error 24 code would not come from a loose brake lever cutting the motor. If I was able to put a microphone on the motor you would hear grinding and a lot of vibration with the whole bike shaking. Before I put this entire video together I actually did check the controller and I did check the main connections that the website said the check and everything was plugged in perfectly fine none of the wires were bent or smashed none of the wires look burnt. So I really think it needs a new motor
@@MrCentralDriver I figured with your experience already, you probably did some checking, but most of my post was for others, but thank you for letting me know all this cause that is new info for myself, hopefully others as well who read it. Was unaware of any motor noises or missed that info in the video, otherwise would have said nothing, but still good info for all. Thank you Mr. C.
I wonder if somebody else experience the same problems or error as you did with this bike?
I have the bike for a year now and you need to change the settings to up the speed with a full battery mine goes 30-31 mph the error code has something to do with the breakes prob a lose wire
error code 24 is the motor tho
@@MrCentralDriver use to have an error idk if it was 24 but it had something to do with the brakes and the cables
Is your engine pro working proper, looking forward to buy one.
Two things I did to fix the issue on the ep-2 was fix the key because it would sometimes barely pop down and then when hitting a curb it would go back to work in normal again and then I also bent the battery pins closer together so it made better contact when the bike was folded and it seem to fix the issue on this bike. The engine pro was never gave me an issue at all
@@MrCentralDriver Thanks for quick response, apreciate it.
Take off the Bell and get yourself a serious electronic horn. Some mods have to be made on all bikes. The SADDLE, HORN AND BRAKES are usually the 3 most obvious ones.
I’m gonna work on changing the handlebars right now
🐍 Well, you dont want that good looking frame to become a boat anchor.
I guess it's time for another 72v conversion.
On DavidBrandNew's channel, he can show how it's done on that folding unit. 🖖🤙
I seen it haha
The bell is because in eu you cant have a horn or something like that you have to have a "real" bell
I mite well have been worth checking that the motor plug is fully plugged in ,takes two minutes just to check the connections , before you contact the company 😉
Already checked that. Only thing I didn’t check was the controller behind the frame screws
I had one loved it it was fast it started jerking engine sent me anew battery but didn't fix it they had no fix for it isent it back it only had 122 miles on it got my money back
Dang
The best Chinese ebike company is FIIDO hands down. I've had their M1 PRO for a year. Works like a dream. I haven't had to change anything on it. And it has over 3000 miles on it already. Its the greatest fat tyre ebike for under £1000 no question.
Just bought my M1PRO....they revised it now only good for just over 33 kph....and the unlock proceedure is different....but does not make it much faster. highly dissapointed in FIDO.
@@railfan100
Thats impossible. If its the new fiido M1 PRO. My friend has it. Its has the new display and black suspension forks right?
I unlocked his one for him and he gets 45kph on it which is around 28mph.
You sound like you may have got the M21 which I do not like. Its slower than the M1 PRO. And the battery is 11.5AH instead of 12.8AH. Which makes no sense to me.
@@fender1000100 mine is m1 pro not the black forks....I can only get 33kph... after unlock.....I bought this bike for the 28 mph speed......but these chinese companies dont really care if you are satisfied or not!...They already have your money!
@@railfan100
Then something is wrong. All M1 pros go up to 45kph (28mph)
Unless you're obese. 235lbs plus you should be getting at least 40kph. I weigh 187lbs. And get 40 to 45kph depending on the road and wind. Please explain to me how you are unlocking the bike?
@@fender1000100 Im 156 lbs. I watched the vid on here how to unlock m1pro(NEW VERSION) followed it....and yes the speed with wheel off the ground increased to 51 kph....but when riding throttle only 33kph.....bummer....another vid on youtube says they changed the CONTROLLER???
Those black wheels are clean as heck.
It's unfortunate it broke down so quickly and during a review!
Yeah unfortunate. Working with the company right now so expect updates down the road
Ordered EP-2 PRO today on Amazon for $699 with 5/11-6/1 delivery date from just launched supplier. Let’s see if the deliver.
It’s worth a gamble and I got 18 months payment terms so I’m not out any money if the don’t deliver.
Dude that’s awesome! Great price
I ordered a black one yesterday also...
@@CraigDyer mate don’t your in for so many disappointments and headaches
@@wolfymaceastern6072 Thanks for the input. We'll see how it is. I should have it by this weekend. It is now in PA being turned over to USPS. I had to buy it because of the low price.
Can you do a review of the Heybike Mars
If they reach out to me I would but not big enough to buy every ebike out there.
Aaah man that sucks they sent u a lemon! I got mine a little over a month ago and ive been enjoying it on the weekends, take it on a nice desert trail we have here thats not too challenging but does have its rough parts and the bike holds up its own. Got it with the extra battery pack for about $1099 i think. Im 6ft2 about 280 and this bike handles my size like its nothing, i can get up too 25mph on flat grounds. So far i have about 60 miles on it, my only gripe is that its a bit heavy to lift up secure it to the bike rack, and the brakes could be better, but thats fixable.
Sooo, basically, they sent you the older version of the bike. This one in particular has many problems with the motor controller, even when they sent you a new controller, you burned it down, it was due to the throttle use. With the newer models this doesn't happen, I got my ep-2 pro in january and I got about 1400km and my bike reaches about 60km/h wich is way more than I expected. I am sorry the sent you this wanky older model. You can reach out to them and ask if they got the newer model with the updated controller and send it to you.
do you know a way to differentiate between which is old and new. i’m looking to buy a used one and don’t want an old one.
@@olliemacker5136 You can check it by scanning the QR Code printed on the controller, you can tell it by the production date
@@luca.breadcolored3537 thanks bro. so it’s probably better to buy used where u can scan before buying right?
@@olliemacker5136 Sure, especially if it has the stock controller
I removed the bell and added a mirror instead, lot safer accessory.
Good idea
First true review of engwe respect mate these bikes are junk engwe has never replied to my messages I bought an engine pro six months ago it’s failed after 3 weeks they never ever reply to my emails the bikes junk DO NOT BUY ENGWE JUNK
thank you. I pride myself on just being honest. That sucks. They need to change the place they get the parts from
@@MrCentralDriver na what’s bad they read this but they never reply shows how they show there respect for customers hope everyone sees this
I need parts👀 let’s strip it👀😂 i’m just saying👀 least you worked off your breakfast👀👌
Haha
Can you tell me how you reset it?
what do you mean reset?
That’s crazy my Swagtron is 300w is super reliable….
It’s not that at all. There was a problem with it from the start. It happens. Had nothing to do with being reliable.
@@MrCentralDriver Glad to see this review.. Also I was a click away from a purchased 😲 .. Life saver 🛟
Hmmm. It maybe a dodgy cable. Or connector some were.
Cable could be broken cable behind the sleeving but I took it all apart even after the video. Checked out the controller. All the connectors. Couldn’t find it a issue anywhere. They might replace the motor and I’ll do it down the road when it comes in and make a video about it if they do. But the average person is not going to wanna fix a bike that was broken on arrival.
@@MrCentralDriver did you. Hmmm. Yeah could be. But yes, your very right indeed, no one should have to do that after all it’s a new bike. Especially a beginner in ebikes.
@@GarrattHamster yeah I know my way around electric bikes and what to look for since I’ve built two so far but the average person isn’t going to know. And also the average consumer is not going to take apart a bike to replace something that’s broken that came dead on arrival. I’m very curious to know if it’s the rear motor or a bad controller displaying power.
@@MrCentralDriver lol yeah, You do. But yeah. It’s a kicker throw. Well it’s great that your open on honest on these things. If you fined anything it be interesting to know.
Hey man, they came out with a newer upgraded version of the same EP-2 Pro. Would you still recommend this bike now that they updated it and its a lot quicker, and did you fix your EP-2 Pro? Or would you not recommend this bike/brand at all and instead go with the Engwe Engine pro which seems to work well for you, cheers.
What’s different about it
@@MrCentralDriver Nothing, the difference between the EP-2 Pro upgraded version is just the battery being 13ah instead of 12.8ah, and they might have addressed these errors that you experienced.
However did you use your 1 year warranty to get the problem sorted, or did you fix it and it was a simple step missed or a loose wire missed during the assembly of the ebike?
This video is holding me and my brother from buying this ebike, hope to hear from you soon and if you can honestly recommend this ebike.
I don't like any of these Chinese bikes because they lack elegance but Engwe has a Trust Pilot score of 4.4/5.0 and Ado is below that at 3.3.
Min. 10:36 when you say..it's so waired..what was on the street..a snake..Did you hit him?
talking about the bike working outta nowhere again. and no that was just a weeds/grass
These bikes are all trash imo. Its just a matter of picking a company that will support you when you have trouble. Thanks for being honest in your review.
Working with them right now. Will have updates in the future
cool foldable bike if it didn't break
Yeah I think the motor was just bad or there’s a bad connection inside the wires that I can’t see
Shit i bought one. Hope no issues. Its arriving next week..
They say it’s 1 out of 100
@@MrCentralDriver your actually the only review i found where these kinds of malfunctions are manifesting.
shame Enqwe was pretty solid on others channels. i was lucky to have my folding bike do all it promised 31mph no errors. its like a lectric xp clone, 4x20 tires, front suspension, it has the same display as the enqwe.
Yeah they are all basically very similar. I think I just got a bad unit
im only getting 22 as well 🙁
Kid rock
check motor cable connections sounds like loose connection especially as started working when hopped up curb
Already did. I took all the wiring. Controller and battery. Display wires. And rear motor wires apart and reattached and nothing.
I was considering getting one of these e-bikes but after watching this review I don't think so. I'm convinced Chinese manufacturers could not quality control themselves out of a paper bag! Smh
Most of the affordable e-bikes you're going to buy are going to be resellers of Alibaba bikes just FYI
It's literally impossible to avoid Chinese manufacturers even if you build your e-bike yourself
Your DiscountCode does not Work?
Should work for this bike only. engwe-bikes.com/products/ep-2-pro-us
Welcome to the world chinese quality control! I had the same thing happen to me on a $1600 dollar EAHORA x7....DEAD ON ARRIVAL! emailed the company...same response "WE ARE NOT REPLACING THE BIKE ....BUT TALK YOU INTO FIXING IT YOURSELF!....They dont want to take responsability for their own poor quality control! Is it too much to ask to check each bike before it is boxed and shipped?!!
Hub motors don’t do well on hill climbs.
Depends on the amps of the controller. Voltage and wattage
I wanted to purchase this bike buy after seeing your review and how bad the customer support from Engwe is i am going for another brand. Crappy bike
Its not motor its contoller anyways they should make quilty better anyways i hate new companies scram people pay over 1,000 dallors for low speed ebike what a shame anyways if anyone start a campany for ebike please make your ebikes better before you sale them
They should be sending you new part for free.
They offered but that means I’d have to fix it. I don’t mind but the average customer does not want to work on fixing a Brand new bike they just purchased. Most people won’t know how. Or might be to old to even do it. But customers shouldn’t have to if it’s dead on arrival.
Any uk codes please
no im sorry
