Where it falls short
The biggest drawback is weight. At 29.9 kg, it is 14% heavier than the median folding bike. That makes it less convenient for carrying or storing in tight spaces. Also, the battery is 10% smaller than average, so range is slightly below par.
Who should buy it
The Engwe EP 2 Pro suits riders who want strong hill-climbing power without spending a lot. It is a good fit if you do not need to carry the bike frequently and you value torque over range.
- You ride in hilly areas and need extra torque.
- You want a folding bike that is cheaper than average.
- You are okay with a heavier bike that stays mostly at home or in a garage.
Look elsewhere if you need a light bike for commuting on public transport. Also consider other options if you need a longer range or a throttle.
