Every review I've seen on this one so far, have mentioned the front rack not following the handlebars. But if you actually use it to lug stuff about, you know you dont want a sack of potatoes or a shopping bag wobbling about with your steering. Same with your light if the front rack is loaded, you want the beam to light up in the general direction you're actually going. Not where your bars are wobbling. Now if you're just riding for speed, fun or to look cool, it makes sense. But as a actual transport/utility bike you want that stability.
The rack does work well and the front light is not a problem. I do try and mention everything, otherwise I will have comments saying why didn't you mention the rack.
@@baconbuttties yes, I was drawing the attention to something often said about the bike. And basically any transport bike tbh that has the rack and light fixed to the frame. But I doubt that they actually lug stuff around daily or even weekly.
It's nice to see you back in the saddle, I hope your back is feeling better. I used to live in the Rhondda valleys, so I'd pop into Caerphilly a couple of times a week, visit the castle, and shop at morrisons.
I just ordered one 30/11/23 just waiting for a delivery date I’m looking forward to getting out on it. I previously converted a cube mountain bike with a Bafang 750w mid drive and while that was quite a bike I just seem to have no end of problems lately. So I decided to opt for a pre built one. I hope I’m not disappointed 😅
I put a Bafang 750w mid drive kit on my Boardman road bike, three years ago. 6,000 miles later it still performs faultlessly. Have you been giving yours a bit too much of a pounding on the trails?😮
@@HighVoltageKits Halfords ebikes are a joke Halfords stopped caring about bikes a long time ago. I well remember in 2004 I could not buy a break cable from them. They only care about cars now, there is a lot more money to be made charging an extra £5 in change and a light bulb 🙂↕️
just noticed this, an older post. I, 've owned one for 2 years now. For starters 4 and a half minutes on the light! really. Just buy an after-market rechargeable. As for road legal, you going up that hill on the throttle would of had it confiscated and crushed if caught. The legal throttle speed is about 3.5 mph. If you start messing with the throttle speeds you can get done with 6 points on your driving license, if you have one. you need to point this out, fella. My long-term review is that its an excellent all-rounder. It's sturdy an reliable. The overall full battery mileage, is taken with a pinch of salt. I've never done what it says on the tin. The most I've had is about 24 miles. It's not watertight btw. Stay out of the , you will ruin the motor and controller.
@@baconbuttties It: :s only the truth. Like I posted; I:ve had one 2 years. Yes, I like it. I can't compare to others; like you. I"'ve not ridden others.

With respect to this reviewer and all the others who have reviewed this cargo bike , designed for carrying stuff , there is no mention how this bike rides fully laden with shopping going down or up hill and how the range is effected . After all, If you was after a E mountain bike , you might expect to see how it jumps and performs off road .
Thank you for the review! Is there a massive difference between the engine X and the L20 or are they basically the same bike and components- just 1 folds and the other doesn't?
Although the light on a motorcycle turns with the steering, for these fixed lights it's just the same as driving in a car like if you're driving in pitch black and doing a U-turn up very sharp turn the lights doesn't turn with your steering it basically just catches up when you strengthen up, so don't think it's much of a issue. Good info you gave though 👍
Thanks for the review. I am very interested in getting an L20 but the size guide says between 5-6ft. I am 6ft 1in and have 36 inch inside leg (to the floor) do you think it would be too small? Can't find anywhere to try one out for size. Cheers Pete
Great review fella! If Engwe are asking, I bought the L20 for my wife after watching this review, as her old Halfords shopping bike has done many many miles and lacked braking power using rim blocks from day one, it's been like Trigger's broom in that respect and with the recent cold weather, the motor has been cutting out. Time for a new one and the L20 was clearly the best choice, in Snow White as per your review. She will love the racks, mudguards and design touches throughout. I will be happy she finally has decent disc brakes! Liked and sub'd. Many thanks and ride safe.
Headlight seems like a nice bright light, as for it being mounted on the rack I don't see a problem, we drive cars with lights fixed to the body and they don't turn when the wheels turn. Is there any chance you could list your setup? Helmet, camera and mounts etc. Thanks.
I was looking at the L20 or E26 as my first e-bike, being a disabled rider, the step through was a big draw for me, however, no folding option took me toward the Engine X. I'd love to see something with it all .. Stepthrough folder would have been nice to see. Nice review mate, thanks.
@@draughtsman1973se has a true 250watt motor and on this heavy bike i doubt it would be enough, i would like the bigger motor on the folding design, plus if the front rack was on a quick release so could be taken off when not shopping
Do you think it might be possible to replace the mechanical brakes with hydraulics? I'd be wanting to carry a fair bit of cargo...on top of what's gonna be a pretty heavy bike...
Yes you can do it, the harder part is the brake levers have motor cut off switches. So either get hydraulic brake levers with switches or magnet adapter type for any brake lever
@@baconbuttties That's pretty amazing, especially on small wheels and fat tyres. I'm sorely tempted to fork out for one of these. In green, it has an almost military appearance.😊
Hi butty, been out for a ride to Mumbles Swansea along the coastal cycle track, but I only got 26 miles out of the battery, must admit it was windy but the throttle was off and mostly flat cycle track terrain , should I be getting more mileage than this. I hope that your experience of the bike might have some answers for me. Many thanks, stay safe and happy new year on your cycle adventures. 👍

Hmmm seems poor range that. Obviously dismiss the claimed 140km - all bike manufacturers should be done under the trade descriptions act. Let's have some real world figures please. However, I would expect more than 26 even if you half the claimed figures.

Can Engwe L20 2.0 be bought in the UK?. if so can you tell me where ? Thank you for your reviews they are very informative .Caerphilly isn't far from me ,so seeing this bike do hills was a deciding point for me. Cheers
@@baconbuttties This is incorrect. The 2.0 model is not yet available in Europe, which is frustrating. This version features a 52v battery that provides greater torque, along with several other improvements.
Great review... Is the front rack perfectly aligned with the headtube, as I've read about some of them NOT being? It's a great pity they chose to use cheap, corrodible & heavy steel for the mudguards, plus the front & rear racks. Very odd given that aluminium alloy is usually the preferred material for racks & plastic for the mudguards with all the advantages that confers...so purely a cost decision.
@@baconbuttties That's good...looks like it might be worth a punt as they say, despite the real risk of aftersales/warranty/lack of parts issues later. Like yourself, I always like to check out metals with a small powerful neodymium magnet given the amount of fraud out there. Back in 21 I purchased several meters of what was supposed to be thick gauge oxygen free copper cable for my hi-fi system from eb@y & found out sometime later...with the magnet WHY the cable sounded harsh...it was magnetic & probably steel multi-strand wire plated with copper! Also, I purchased a "Trinx" folding bike (not ebike)...again from eb@y described as steel on the frame label, but was found to be non magnetic & probably an aluminium alloy...so that was quickly moved on, as it was quite light weight & very bendy.
That's a tough one to choose....The feel very similar to ride and have similar power and speed. The choice is down to if you want the folding function or the practically of carrying more stuff. If I had to choose it would be the L20.
I look at engwe UK and it's a good offer but don't the delivery waiting time, need to do some homework on this before I buy again, bit apprehensive after loosing £954 to a company called AOVO-STORE and that was using PayPal as well, going to do some more digging first. Many thanks my friend for your help and videos, I will let you know what I end up doing. 👍
This thing looks fantastic! However, how long do you think it will be before the police begin pushing back against them? The 250W sticker won't fool everyone.
I hope you're right, although that does seem a bit optimistic. A decade or so ago, my wife had an electric (toy) scooter which she would commute on, until a slow police day changed that. It's a shame because these low powered vehicles are a great transport solution, and lots more would be willing to adopt them, but they just don't seem to be getting the government support of their 4 wheeled counterparts. Hopefully that will change at some point soon
Hi butty, brilliant videos they give the viewer a lot of info before they purchase the new bike. Would you know of anywhere that I could go and see one before I buy, I live near Swansea south Wales but prepared to travel to view one. Many thanks keep the videos coming. 👍

I am 72 and have knees to match, so pushing off, especially on hills is a no-no, and I don't mind the reduced projected distance loss, it's a good trade off for me I appreciate the front luggage rack as I intend to go day camping in my steed and my trusty rucksack will fit very nicely there. I love it how you manage to manage to travel to America for your on road throttle testing, but the weather over there must be very disappointing for the locals 🤪💯🤣
@@baconbuttties hi that's amazing for 250wat I had 750wat 25mph it's is fat tyre bike from amazon looks like a motor bike. Today I've put a 1500wat kit on 35amp controller 52v 20amp battery I shoud get 35 to 37mph. It's made bike a but heavy at rear. I haven't been out on it yet I've got do throttle and pas the drop out was a bit of a pain 4 washers either side to centre the wheel I'll get there
People panic if you have 1500wat or 2000wat if you have a limerta it's two blue wires if you connect up the bike does 18mph that makes it Street lagal. As long I have that connected the police can't do nothing that's for on the road if road disconnect blue wire is but on the road with wire disconnect from then they might give warning or take bike depending on age and driving licence in intilted to use 50cc scooter with out license 50cc is 2.600 wats

Leaning forward in the brake test is taking weight off the rear wheel so less traction on it.

The L20 was always the one I was looking to buy and now it has a torque sensor it's a done deal, but most of all I am interested in the boost feature.
I am 72 and have knees to match, so pushing off, especially on hills is a no-no, and I don't mind the reduced projected distance loss, it's a good trade off for me I appreciate the front luggage rack as I intend to go day camping in my steed and my trusty rucksack will fit very nicely there. I love it how you manage to manage to travel to America for your on road throttle testing, but the weather over there must be very disappointing for the locals 🤪💯🤣

When you set display it 60km per hour so what is top speed if that was my bike It would be doing 37mph
Top speed is around 26 to 28 mph depending weight
@@baconbuttties hi that's amazing for 250wat I had 750wat 25mph it's is fat tyre bike from amazon looks like a motor bike. Today I've put a 1500wat kit on 35amp controller 52v 20amp battery I shoud get 35 to 37mph. It's made bike a but heavy at rear. I haven't been out on it yet I've got do throttle and pas the drop out was a bit of a pain 4 washers either side to centre the wheel I'll get there
People panic if you have 1500wat or 2000wat if you have a limerta it's two blue wires if you connect up the bike does 18mph that makes it Street lagal. As long I have that connected the police can't do nothing that's for on the road if road disconnect blue wire is but on the road with wire disconnect from then they might give warning or take bike depending on age and driving licence in intilted to use 50cc scooter with out license 50cc is 2.600 wats

You live in the uk and you're British so say Aluminium how we say in and don't charge for the yanks, they don't for our sake. 😁

Good video ❤ I am looking for the 750 watt version
You might be surprised on the actual power of this one
it is actually 750w, marked 250.
@@supernova1976 hi is this bike actually 750w but marked as 250w for the UK market
@@rabbitedge yes
Thanks I'm now looking for UK supplier
There’s no way this will do 60 kph I’ve tried it and also the tyres are awful unless it’s bone dry , not a bad bike though, 6/10 👍🏾
I got about 42 kph on a straight flat road
Bro can u use this bike in the rain ?
It's most likely water resistant, but not waterproof. I would ask Engwe directly how water resistant it is.
The rating of our e-bike is IPX5.
We do not recommend riding your e-bike through water. If you must ride in water, the water depth should not exceed the lowest point of the motor, otherwise your motor may be damaged. From company
Follow up video on 20mph roads in wales?
👍👍
Have you ever been stopped by the police to check if your bike is legal or illegal?
Never.... In public I always stick to the rule of 15.5 mph and pedaling.
I keep in a low setting.
What you see on my reviews is testing the full capabilities.
👍
👍
Can it take a passenger? I need a bike for school runs. Preferably legal 😂
Im not sure as it states 25kg on the rear rack
Nice review can i pull a cart with my dog in it ?
Probably, has a good bit of torque.
Mr Chuckle can't see much leg pedaling or are you using an illegal hand throttle, ha, ha
😮
Your spelling should be illegal!
