Summary of Reviews

We have read all expert and user reviews on the ENGWE Engine Pro 2.0. In summary, this is what cyclists think.

9 reasons to buy

  • Experts say both throttle and pedal assist are responsive.
  • In one range test, the reviewer covers 45 miles using a combination of throttle and PAS.
  • Reviewers say the suspension fork works well to absorb bumps.
  • Experts feel the hydraulic brakes provide sufficient stopping power, though the 160mm rotors are very small for a heavy e-bike.
  • The Engino Pro 2.0 performs well on steep hills in testing.
  • Testers agree the Engine Pro 2.0 is comfortable.
  • The color display is bright and easy to see in sunlight, according to reviewers.
  • Shimano’s 8-speed Altus derailleur and shifters are above average at this price.
  • The Engine Pro 2.0 comes with fenders, a rear rack with a 55lb capacity, and lights.

12 reasons not to buy

  • ENGWE has issued a mandatory battery recall to certain customers, including Engine Pro 2.0 owners, due to the risk of overheating and fires.
  • In an attempt to save face, ENGWE asks those it contacts not to publicize the battery recall, which could potentially impede the spread of the information and put people in danger.
  • The Engine Pro 2.0 doesn’t hold its top speed, as the motor cuts out upon reaching 28mph and kicks in again once it has slowed to 26mph.
  • The rear shock isn’t adjustable and two testers feel it’s too stiff.
  • Testers complain that the Engine Pro 2.0 is too bulky to fit in a sedan’s trunk when folded.
  • At 77.4lb, this bike is challenging to lift and too heavy to carry for most people.
  • Reviewers feel the lights are too dim to be seen in the dark.
  • Testers complain about the keyhole’s awkward placement on the underside of the frame behind cables.
  • With a minimum seat height of 33.8”, riders at the low end of the 5’4” to 6’2” height range may struggle to fit.
  • Experts bemoan the time-consuming and challenging assembly.
  • Reviewers complain that the motor is loud.
  • Most testers find the saddle uncomfortable.

Bottom line

The ENGWE Engine Pro 2.0 is a fat-tire folding e-bike. Version 2.0 swaps cadence for torque sensing and adds more power, torque, and battery capacity. Reviewers praise the quick acceleration, hill climbing capabilities, solid range, and comfort. They also note that more rider effort is required than with cadence-sensing e-bikes. The motor cuts out upon reaching 28mph, so riders cannot maintain the top speed while pedaling. Other complaints include laborious assembly, poor lights, and limited portability. A recall for overheating batteries is worrying, but ENGWE’s plea to customers not to publicize the recall shows it cares more for its bottom line than people’s safety.

Review of the ENGWE Engine Pro 2.0

The mag rims are a big draw and make this e-bike stand out on the road. My biggest gripe though is the torque sensor. It really takes a lot of effort to get this e-bike going.

ENGWE Foldable Engine Pro v2.0 Hits 52V (More Torque)

… if you guys are into pedaling, get the 2.0. You’re going to like it, especially if you don’t need to go 28mph all the time.

Should You Buy an ENGWE Engine Pro 2.0? | 52V Fat Tire E-Bike Review

The performance is pretty average, but [it] might be really good for a new e-bike rider. [It’s] not super powerful, but [it’s] powerful enough to get you around without pedaling.

ENGWE Engine Pro 2.0: In-Depth Review of the Upgraded 52V Folding E-Bike!

You cannot maintain 28[mph] because it’s going to bump you down to 26mph… then you go up and down, so it does take some of the enjoyment out of that. But I do like the very refined torque sensor.

The ENGWE Engine Pro 2.0 – My New Favorite Folding E-Bike!

… it can be a bit awkward when you have it folded to move it around. Other than that, for what this bike is, I think they nailed it.
