I've had this bike for about two years in the orange color and I absolutely love it. There are tons of Facebook and Reddit groups around this particular model. It seems to have a global cult following! However, it is very very heavy and so if you're going to be folding it and putting it in the back of a pick up truck, then I would look at other models
Will it fit inside trunk of a crossover (like a CRV)?

I'm tempted to get one so I ride it to work from the train station... but 70lb sounds like a lot.

Any comments / reviews / concerns about this eBike and the website?
That's about the norm. I bought this about six months ago when they had this deal. It's a very good e-bike and well-built. It's about 10 lbs lighter when you remove the battery.

This brand was paying a bunch of youtubers to hype their brand up, guessing the hype didn't last

Damn, I wish they didn't charge tax. I think the Engwe site doesn't charge tax.
I also wish taxes didn't exist

Well I don't know about the bike, but I have seen some horrible reviews on reddit about this company regarding after sales and warranty support. Also check Amazon 1 star reviews for this bike and you will know. If it works, then probably great but if you got a lemon then good luck with it.
I can attest to this! Their customer support tried to gaslight me after I tried to cancel my order 5 minutes after placing it. Their response was "you can only cancel within 48 hrs" - their response time took 48 hrs… This was directly through their site.

I bought this last year. It's an ok bike but there aren't enough gears resulting in ghost pedaling

I'll chime in because I've put over 600 miles on one of these. It's a good bike for this price but I'd gladly pay double for the Yamaha deal. Bikes heavy, small wheels and narrow handlebars make it kinda funny handling. Riding position is also somewhat optimized for shorter people (I'm 5'9") I can't fully stretch my legs out on a full crank of the pedals which isn't ideal. Batteries fairly good and will do over 50 on a full charge if you put in some effort peddling. Battery indicator is pretty accurate also. Also 7th gear isn't tall is ghost peddling at 20. Some of this stuff can be swapped if inclined.
If you are going to compare things, compare similar things. This is a folding bike! It has smaller wheels and narrow handlebars for a reason… Because it folds! Obviously, a rigid frame bike vs. a folding bike shouldn't be compared as the same or even similar.

Even slicker if you have $100 off $500 on your AMEX.
Is it $100 off over $500 specifically for Wellbots?

Yes!! I have this bike too and ghost pedaling is a big issue. So I did upgrade it to engwe engine pro. overall so satisfied.
I would say engwe ep-2 pro is a good bike for delivery, but need more maintenance because of heavy weight and mechanical disk break.

The battery size for this price is good, but ask yourself if you really need it. Unless you're truly using this for long commutes you probably don't and these Chinese, no name bikes can be had for less than $500 on Amazon daily. Ask yourself if you're really every going to fold it too. Ebikes seem to be impulse buys for most and no thought or use scenario is ever considered and they're ridden 3x and thrown in a corner.

Why in the world would anyone get this junk when a Yamaha with spare battery can be had for $1100?

I bought this deal 2 days ago but I've decided to cancel before it ships and getting the Yamaha CrossCore RC deal instead. Here's why:
  • According to Engwe's official website, Wellbots is an unauthorized seller [engwe-bikes.com]. This means that the bike won't get Engwe's 1 year warranty. Wellbots doesn't have a warranty on this bike either, and the return policy states a 15% restocking fee. I was thinking that I could get on Amex's credit card extended warranty protection, but it does not cover motorized vehicles.
  • Although the Yamaha ebike is $1200 and Engwe is $600, it comes with an extra battery that is $1400 retail. This battery could easily be resold and cover the cost difference. Plus, Yamaha has a 5 year warranty.
  • There's very high praise for the Yamaha Crosscore brand which has been around since 2018. Yamaha invented the pedal assist bike 30 years ago. All the bike's components are built by Yamaha. Engwe is just some rebranded generic chinese bikes. There's a lot of Youtube reviews of the Engwe EP 2 Pro where the reviewer seems to be paid to give a good review. The Engwe subreddit seems to have a more negative sentiment towards the brand.
  • There are Yamaha dealers around me who can do warranty work. Even if I somehow received Engwe warranty, I would have to ship the bike or work on it myself.
  • Yamaha only weighs 53lb, is superior mid-drive, no ghost pedaling with 9 gears, no awkward geometry, no deadly front fenders.

Great find. Do you get the Yamaha extra battery right away?

The small text on Yamaha Crosscore RC product page says "Upon completion of the warranty registration, a free second battery and battery end cap ($1,400 value) will be shipped directly to the registered owners at no additional charge". So sounds like it will take some time to arrive, not right away.
