So does storing li-on batteries inside (out of a hot 90 ° summer garage) also apply to Ryobi and other brands of power tool & lawn / garden tool batteries?
Yes, those use li-ion batteries, and heat is their biggest enemy. Cold not so much, just don't charge below 32 F, storing at low temps is better than high temps.

Quote from brefmint :
Purchased two yesterday for the wife and I to use while traveling in the camper van. Specs look great for the price and most of the reviews I found online were positive. I just wish I didn't have to weed through everyone's political and economical opinions to find actual reviews here.
Okay I bought the ep2pro like 3 months ago customer service actually was fast they replied immediately and fixed my pedal send me a new crank shaft and perdal for free. I was impressed. The pedal was attached to the crank shaft it broke because I didn't secure it correctly and I'm big like 235. So it wouldn't have broke if I knew anything about bikes m Only issue on Reddit I've really seen is people riding them in the rain and they battery case conductor things don't connect. I live my engwe bike best 650 I ever spent. Customer service was good I got like 500 miles on it and ride it hard. No issues I'm really about to buy another if my girlfriend would ride with me. Just switch to bmx handlebars and put flat out tire sealant you. I even bought carbon wrap of temu my bike is cool man love it.

From my limited research...

Reddit says stay away from this company if you want long term support.

YouTube reviews (paid/incentivized) says great bike for the price.

SD commenters are more interested in teaching Global Macroeconomics 101.

I can't see any reason to spend this much on something that can very well become paperweight after about a year of usage. Which is a shame. I would've liked to have gotten a "Slickdeal".
Don't believe the hype customer service fixed my bike fast from my research the issue is from riding them in the rain. Even then the company sending them the pay to fix. Just my experience. my engwe bike.

FYI, I'm pretty sure these companies have similar return/refund policy. For that Senada deal a while back, someone did try to cancel the order prior to shipping, but couldnt. It shipped anyways. Then package was refused. Senada still charged the buyer a significant percentage for restocking. And the fee is based off the original price and not the sale price.

Just make sure you're solid before purchasing.

Thanks for finding this deal. I can ALMOST push the 'buy' button.

Who do I believe? Engwe name is kind of known. Specs are good. Aluminum frame; good. I don't trust the excess YouTube reviewers and their glowing reviews that praise their free E-bikes. I think the majority of the reviews are padding. They dial down my expectations. It folds. I can live with mechanical brakes. Large 180mm rotors are good. I expect zero support. It's slimmer and that makes it lighter (68.5 lbs.)

The odd, thinner, tire size (3×20" versus the standard 4×20") makes me hesitate.

Is the smaller bike and tire size a trend? I see the advantages. With less un-sprung tire weight, the bikes are more responsive. The bikes are for, at most, 'bunny trails.' It's another gamble: will the odd tire size become the new standard or will it fade?

52V vs. 48V means manufacturer-cheap riding-power boost (if the mechanics can handle it.) That makes them 8% more 'nervous' performing. Marketing calls this, "More fun!"

Working harder and getting less. Looming close is the president's 25% Chinese-electric-products tariff increase. It starts on June 13 – today only 11 days away. It attacks E-bikes. We are living in doublespeak times. Bottom-line – does that $700 bike jump to $875 overnight?

I've already owned and continue to enjoy my 26-inch E-bike for almost 2 years. Alloy frame; 48V, 17Ah battery and rear drive motor having 1000 real Watts and 95nM torque. I've gone over 400 miles. I'm a short 5' 7" and barely fit. I get plenty of questions: people are interested.

I live in Killer-fornia. Live in a 400x100-mile valley: flatland with artificial bunny hills. All year long, bike is stored in a covered patio. I have two batteries and zero battery explosions. The worst problem is the annoyingly squeaky brakes. No flats.

My choices of ride was planned so no surprises. My not-Engwe bike: off the line, leisurely takeoff. Then, in a second, the power quickly kicks in. Mid-speed power is aggressive. My software unlocked so I can get up to 33 mph (according to the display.) Big, noticeable, comfortable, fast and stable. Safe...but that is mostly up to the rider to be responsible. When I ride, I assume that I am invisible. Fun exploring and tailing cars. It's great for local lightweight hauling and independently seeking alternative paths. It weighs 74 lbs so the newer & smaller Engwe is only 9% lighter. Straight theory says the Engwe's smaller tires wear out 23% faster.

A spare E-bike would be nice. In less than a week and a half, prices may make a big jump. Are answers obvious?

I just wish that the Engwe tires would magically be the standard 4×20".

Still stinging from the RAD/Amazon power bike fiasco: my son did not get his Christmas present. I won't buy RAD.

I'll probably go for Engwe. Scam or is Engwe legit?

Just ordered. I think it was the last black one in stock. $699. How bad can it be?? Specs look great for a less expensive bike. Needed a folding bike. Had a gopower gocity - worked for our needs, this one looks better and updated. Thank you!

Geez y'all... Can we talk about the bike instead?

So I bought two of the Austin for $519 for my kids back then. I'm thinking of getting this for myself. They've put over 200 miles on it since and no issues (got 2 flats but thats on my kids).

This one is couple hundred more..but it does have 750w motor/52V 13AH battery vs. 500w/48V 14AH battery on the Austin.

All else seems to be similar--20x3 fat tire, mechanical brakes (ugh), top speed, weight, etc.

Not sure if its worth the $200 if I'm only getting the bigger motor. If they had upgraded the brakes to hydraulics, then maybe its a consideration. But I'll hold off until a better deal comes around...
Looks like you got your wish, looks like all the political crap got removed, thank god.

Especially how someone here in this thread was in support of bringing sweatshops in the US 😳

I watched a YouTube video and saw a problem. It could happen to many legal 20" bikes.

To get to 28mph, you have to pedal. Maybe avoiding a pothole: if you turn too sharp while pedaling, a pedal hits the ground. That is a good chance of an accident.

Bikes with the much taller 26" wheels do not have the problem.

I just bought a Ride1Up Portola, otherwise I would have jumped at this deal. I've watched quite a few reviews on this bike and they have all been favorable. Here's what I've learned from the reviews.

Pros
  • Very powerful motor, top performer for hill climbing, great acceleration
  • Great screen
  • Good suspension
  • Decent weight
  • Front and rear rack are nice inclusions
  • Easy access to battery

Cons
  • Suspension seat makes this difficult for shorter people to ride. Replacing the seat post fixes this issue though
  • Mechanical brakes have average performance
  • Front light does not follow wheel direction when mounted on front rack
  • Ghost pedaling occurs at higher speeds
  • Longer than usual delay for motor to kick in when using PAS
  • Cannot unlock throttle speed limit
  • Key needs to be in battery for bike to run
Unknown
  • Whether or not battery range meets Engwe's claims
  • Quality of Engwe's customer service

I've researched many comparably spec'd ebikes (Vitilan U7, i7 Pro, Velotric Fold, Ride1Up Portola, Lextric XP 3.0, Aventon Sinch, RadExpand 5, HeyBike Mars 2.0) and think the Engwe L20 2.0 is the best choice at $699, especially considering how powerful this 52v motor is and the overall good performance of the bike.
