I have the Cowboy 3, like a Tenways only with a removable battery. It’s great. And yes, on a single speed, belt driven e-bike, hills are easy to get up. I ride every morning, usually about 7 to 10 miles averaging about 17mph. And it has theft protection, if you crash it will send a text to a contact. I wish it was a bit more forgiving on the rough terrain but I’m very happy with it.
*Exceeded my expectations, fast,sturdy, dependable, **Latest.Bike** . Great for city commute, Bike speaks for itself!!!Adam in customer service is great.*
Nice round up of the e-bike lists! Many thanks :)
Great quick reviews! And yes, a single speed ebike handles hills just fine even if you are over 100Kg.
I can't wait for the Vanmoof S5/A5 looks like a game changing eBike. 🚲 ⚡
Love the review, I’ve got the Super73 RX, fantastic bike
Great reviews, thanks for being informative whilst keeping it light. Any idea how to gate ANY of these in NZ? I just moved here form Berlin - where Cowboys, Van Moofs and pretty much any e-bike made roam the streets. Wellington, however has barely any options for cool urban e-bikes, I know this is not your thing but thought, since you have access, that you might have some ideas? Many thanks!
Oh and as per usual, great review, Eilis!
Just have to say I really love the sense of humor and the kind of meme usage in your channel!
You just got a new subscriber!
I love Eilis, I can watch her for hours!
Great reviews - thank you. As for ideas of other bikes to take a look at: How about Tern - their GSD and HSD cargo bikes, and Vektron folding bike?
Thanks for the suggestions I’ll add these to my list!
Super 73 all the way for me. Loved this from day 1.
Hey. Great video. Do you happen to know what the weight limit of the Tenways CGO 600 Pro is?
All very good bikes and very tempting! I'll check back once I've decided which one to go for :P
Yes let me know!!
What do you think of the GFORCE ZM? Wondering if there legal to use in Europe (NL to be precis) love your vids!
That last bike would do my knees in!!
Does the cgo bike (no.1) have a removable battery for charging?
I bought a £100 refurbished mountain bike from a charity project and fitted a switch bike setup. It all works really well and helps with my chronic fatigue problems. It looks inexpensive due to some messy camouflage black paint and the battery can be easily removed so not so attractive to your avarage bike thief. Also the battery can be charged off the bike, and it works a treat for me. Would like the longer range battery perhaps, but due to the cost, I'll stick to the smaller one.
Great, always enjoy your reviews. Only thing in a prior vid you loved the CGO800. I was surprised not to see that e-bike in your list of fav's.
It’s so, so hard to pick a top 5! The CGO800 is also fantastic 🥲 too many great choices!!
@@Electroheads Thanks Eilis, totally agree. There's so many options. Right now for me, my customized Schwinn hybrid works for me. Keep up the great work. Absolutely love your vid's.
Your new halo look is amazing 🤩
Any urban/travel e bike with full suspension
Plz
Thank you for including Gocycle! :)
Just wondering how many times people have been stopped by the popo for their ebike. Not that I would ever think of buying a 750w motor and using it like a 250. Nope, wouldn’t dream of it.
It all depends where you live. I'm in a town that's very hilly and you need something like a 750w if you don't want to struggle. I have a 350w and most of the time I feel like I'm at the gym pedalling up hills. On the flat it will do 23.5 on the throttle compared to 8 when pedal assisting a maxed out throttled cruise control. I've learnt my lesson, next bike will have the power to get up them.
I am 6’ 4” and 270 lbs. a 250 won’t cut it for me. We are not all the same…
@@ProjectMotive I find 250w almost effortless uphill. I'm 11st and 6ft. The law essentially punishes you for being big lmao.
@@BamBam-me8sf I have a 90 lbs fat ebike and with my pack It’s 300 lbs. my bike is 750 watts I can get 40 miles range.
@@ProjectMotive I am
Loved your review on the Tenways. I have been eyeing the V Volt Alpha which I think is very similar. have you taken a glance at it yet?
Thank you! Ooh no I haven't I'll take a closer look
Nice e-bike selection 😊
I have recently got into e-bike riding and find it better than a conventional bike.
What helmet cameras or bike cameras would you recommend as I watched your video about accidents in your day and even though I’m not in the city it’s just as bad if not worse for mishaps and potholes.
Keep up the good work as your videos are really informative and good to watch 😊😊
I'm always interested in the battery length and the wattage of the motor because we have rules about that so...
Lovely reviews 👍 Next future ride to test: Arcimoto Mean Lean Machine ✌️
I might actually be filming with them VERY soon. Keep your eyes peeled 👀
Does the simplicity of a carbon belt drive outweigh the advantages of a chain driven gear set? (The motor is a 500 watt.)
I'd love you to review the super stylish Fiido D11. It's a foldable ebike that's absolutely brilliant 👍
Have you tried RAD RUNNER PLUS? Great for Shopping and extra passenger 🤗
I have a Ruff Cycles Lil' Buddy ebike which I love riding, would really like to hear you do a review on this bike, I'm sure you will really enjoy it! 👍
Thanks I’ll see what I can organise!
@@Electroheads maybe let the weather cool down a bit first! 😂
Some fine e-journalism.
When we talk about "it can handle hills", it be nice to mention the grades. I have a lot of 5-10% grade hills in my city and can never tell if they'll handle that no problem or if people live in a flat city with at worst a 3% grade.
I have a NCM MOSCOW PLUS 29er . 1500 miles in and all is well . Cost me £1500 so £1.00 a mile 👍😃.
Love your house!
Welcome back ❤️
Thank you!!
I luv this
Can you review the Flit-16 Bike please?
Having an ebike l can go on long bike rides l would never dream of going on with my Voodoo bizango which l use for off road in the devils punchbowl. With the folding ebike l can fit in the back seat or boot of my car. Massive life changer.
Quick question, how tall are you? Just to have a idea of frames sizes.
Thanks.
Great question! I’m 5ft10
The Ado A20F is like the Mate X but costs a third of the price and is legal to ride in the UK. Much better choice imo unless you want to be landed with fines.
I've just taken a peak - it's got a very similar look!
Interesting that you chose Super 73 over the Newgen 345. Did that come down to the price and overall customisation options?
Great review overall.
Thanks! The seat on the ZX is a touch slimmer than the New Gen which I personally preferred making it just beat the New Gen
@@Electroheads Thank you for the response.
Seat preference was the deciding factor, got to have a comfy ride. Thanks for the input.
Been tossing between these bikes, both beautifully designed and your comparison video was brilliant but only made my decision that more challenging.
Thanks for all your hard work making these videos ☺️
@@scottj2895 In the same position you was in right now... Thinking on going for the 345-s
You can now get Tenways Pro with removable battery.
I can't believe we can only get 250W bikes in the UK
Wish I could get a Ariel Rider Grizzly but it's 3000W lol
I have an electric single speed. Love it about town.
Yeeeees! One of us!!
I’m already subscribed but I hit the button anyway
We love to see it 😎
axle or electric drive, I mean, axle transmission (cvt or fixed) or pedal-by-wire generator-motor drive
⚡ *Oo, quite like #2,* especially in white⚡
Especially with Dutch style handlebars - which should really be the default but somehow not.
MateX & GoCycle are probably the "best" ones by far.
The Gocycle G4i is actually 1k more expensive than you said!
Interested why you chose the 73 over the 345-s as it seemed like that was the better bike from the other video
coz nothing bits s73 if we talk about customization, community, power( but still legal), looks and brand recognition, what downside it is price specially in Europe but this bike is something else which make e-bike people turn heads when passing. Im using e-bike's for last 8 years and I was owning maybe 12 different bikes, even now I have Phatfour fls+ and Super73 rx Mojave and S73 kills all my bikes with everything but not modesty! Is only legal E-bike on the planet that have fanbase in every capitol. Owners meet and have fun riding together like groups of 100 at once, and this bike connect them like any other E-bike existing. Rest of E-bikes are just E-bikes Super73 becomes much more in this selfish world. That why I will put s73 above all of them when we talk about E-fatbikes.
The Super73 is on my list, too
Would love to know what you think when you get it!
Does your 5% off voucher code for PET work on escooters also?? .... Keep up the great informative content 👌👌👌
It does mate - have at it!
@@Electroheads thnx so much... Vsett9+ going on order when iv smooth talked the wifey 👌👌👌
Potholes cant be any worse than here in the states.! Nice bikes.
The 73 suits you best .
Have you tried serial 1 ebike?
I haven't! Another one to add to the list 🤓
I'd like to see you Wheelie down Oxford Street on a modified Sur Ron Please :D
Noted 😎
I like Eilis!
I dont know why! Maybe because she is perfect in so many ways?
What would you recommend for a woman of 5,1 height please? I'm looking for an e-bike for my wife and while the Tenways sounds brilliant, they start at size "medium" from 5'4.
The Tenways step-through (CGO800s) might be a better option than than the CGO600. They are fundamentally very similar bikes though the step-through is slightly heavier. The frame size wouldn't necessarily be the biggest issue with the CGO600, it's more about getting onto the bike in the first place (the step-through eliminates this problem).
It's also worth looking into foldable options like the MiRiders - they are ideal for more petite people.
@@Electroheads Great, thank you!
the prise is very good
It’s that gal again 😍 , how many E bikes do you actually own now Eilis ?
Did she just say “off of”?
Yes, I think she did.
CGO 600 definitely well worth being one of the best comfortable commuter bikes. I'm convinced.
Fiido L3
Look at range test😂
What did you think of the wau ebike
I was really impressed with the Wau bike! It has incredible safety systems built in 😍
Tenways bike looks too big for you or saddle too high??
Let me add an endorsement for the SimpliSafe system. Easy and reliable!
Can you please review Bird electric bike
Any chance of an E bike built for two???
Ooh that’s a shout! I’ll keep an eye out 👀
@14:51 definitely a massive boost from Casey neistat alone I recon
👍
Would be tempted by the tenways but I'm not sure about the battery being integrated... What happens when it needs a repair?
Can you please please review the Cowboy C4 ST?
This is my issue
Tenways assured me you can get the battery replaced if you contact them. But this may well be in the 2 year warranty period alone. I’ll ask them and see what the deal is after 2 years, but otherwise the CGO800S is a solid alternative
And I’ll get the cowboy on the list!! It’s time!
@@Electroheads thank you for a prompt response. I reckon I’m going to go for a Mycle, after watching this. Wanted a radrunner but doesn’t seem to be a uk distributor.
Everyone thinks that Ebikes are something new (but as we all know they are not)
The first one I got was twenty years ago and had 6
7ah twelve volt lead acid batteries powering it had that for 5 years.
Then I got a 36volt kit that I over voltade with a 64volt 24ah battery (ninety two thousand miles and two new batteries later still going) How needs more than 1 gear. would not mind a super 7.
Why does Mate look so much like a Lectric bike? I've heard almost all the ebike companies use the same build of bike, sometimes from the same factories in China and then slap their logo on them.
A test of the Riese & Müller Multicharger GT Vario HS
Noted 😎
Mate 750w 14.5ah
Is going nowhere fast🤣
Where is the Fiido L3? £829,
23.2ah
Can ride up the steepest hills,
never get less than 50mls using throttle,
Ive peddled 114mls
Was flashing last bar lol
Who else thinks Ellis is super cute?
Hey, you said the Tinker was your favorite bike several videos ago 🚔
Super 73 I mean
Qualisports Nemo
Hi I'm a fatty 132kg can you recommend an ebike please
If you're in UK then the 250w limit is not enough for you. Get Ado A20F as it's a beast and can be easily unrestricted to 500W.
Pedal assist ruin urknees....
E -Bike Cube. Recovered by police today. Lancaster.
Didn’t have wireless cameras unless you want them hacked, and they can see everything you do
This should like a paid promotion, if so you have to/should say so.
Honbike
“Like Tesla of the e-bike world but less prone to falling apart.” 😂
The Tenway CGO600 looks lovely especially in that Sky Blue. Unfortunately sold out here stateside.
Have my eyes on the Wing Freedom 2 which looks like a tasty commuter bike with a 550w Bafang motor and Shimano 7 speed drivetrain all for around $1100. Do you have them available to review in the U.K.?
No bik racks in usa.....
How much were you paid to advertise these bikes as "the best"
Almost all Ebikes are either over-priced and/or under-powered...anything above $1200k is a ripoff and motors less than 350W are more or less useless. Did my research before buying my new ebike: 1000W full-suspension foldable for $950... one negative: no fenders but otherwise it's perfect!
also, it comes with a removable Samsung battery.
You pay for what you get for e-bikes. Buy right or buy twice.
I love ur Channel but there is too many punts in ur Video Always showing clips of Pictures and video clips Dose my head in it's not Necessary you do a great job on your own Merit 😂
HELP... Can't help wondering when the Law is going to change. When can we legally buy more powerful bikes and what is going to happen to the stock of existing poorly powered bikes?
More people need to get into electric vehicles. They're the future of the world🔥
Why would engineers fix bikes? Engineers / Design engineers would design and do R&D into electric bikes, technicians would fix them.
Honestly: Tenways is a cheap version of Vanmoof concepts. Sorry but it is what it is.
They tell you tenways wonderful this and that but never tell you amp hour of battery.
They are jokers don't listen to her.
When buying you need to know what you are buying..
The more amp hour, the more milage.
Build your own for a fraction of cost.
Trek wants about 4,000 or higher
I can build for half of that and I can give you much more than they can.
Electro heads are about who pays
Thanks Terence! Just off to tell my 60 year old mum not to bother buying that ebike because she can just build one herself in the shed.
Eilis is the only presenter you need. Get rid of the rest.
Simpli Safe is 💩. Are most/ many e-bikes made in white label factories?
E-bikes pretending to save the environment while looking richer than you and putting you down after we talk and meet
