Wonderful review! Thanks a lot!!!!

[@kennybo-iy2ed]

i just swapped the brake cables over for front and back brakes, job done.

[@Crumies09]

Good job on this video!

[@philgreen815]

I have this bike. I am delighted with it, does everything I want, cross country and off road, gravel tracks, drives like a breeze on roadways. I can ride for a while with no effort, I am 68 and manage long rough tracks easily.

[@paulp2219]

Another great indepth vid.

[@RickandHeather]

Engwie contacted me asking me to review one of the non compliance ones, I looked into the legality thinking I’d seen so many KZbinrs using them it was probably ok, I didn’t realise it could affect my driving license if I did. I contacted Engwie with my concerns and they agreed to send me this model instead, I’m not going to lie I’d have happily used the illegal one if I hadn’t researched due to putting myself on KZbin but I’m not happy doing it as I am. Great video though I can only hope to do it as much justice ( you can easily swap the brakes) cheers Rick

[@ExploreVanUK]

Yeah they are really good like that. We currently have an Engine Pro 2 and X24 which we are testing off the road as neither are fully compliant due to having motors above 250w I know many people use higher-rated ones on the road and it's likely that if you have the throttle switched off and the speed limited to 15.5 MPH you would never have an issue, but it is a risk, especially if you ever have an accident.

[@gamingmisthios]

Which one would be best? This or L20 2.0? Or pvy z20 max For deliveries, range, comfort and security

[@ExploreVanUK]

Afraid I can’t compare as I’ve not tried the others, but for what you’ve said the Engine Pro 2.0 would be my choice if you’re happy it’s not totally road legal. If you want it to be completely legal in UK EU then the engine X. Watch out for our video next week on the Engwe X24 as that could be the best option with its dual batteries, bigger wheels, three point suspension and more dynamic riding position.

When does the discount code ends? because i am planning to get one at the end of the month

[@ExploreVanUK]

Hi, I don't have an end date for it from Engwe, sometimes Partners limit it by the number purchased rather than dates, but hopefully it will still be active when you need it!

[@miro_aziz]

@@ExploreVanUK brilliant, thank u! One more question, do you think it would be good to do about 4 to 5 hours delivery shit a day on it?

[@karlosthehawk3730]

In the British weather how is it for riding in the rain (waterproof)just incase you get unexpected downpour

[@ExploreVanUK]

We’ve not had any problem with it and it’s been in a number of unavoidable downpours / drizzly rides. We do give it a good wipe over to dry it and never put it away wet.

[@karlosthehawk3730]

Ok only asked because am thinking of getting the new version of this bike but I seen somewhere that it only has a IP2 waterproof rating and wasn't sure if that's enough for wet weather we have

[@ExploreVanUK]

@karlosthehawk3730 I think it’s just Engwe being cautious to be honest.

[@ExploreVanUK]

If you do decide to go for any of the Engwe range let me know and I’ll see if I can sort you out a discount code.

[@karlosthehawk3730]

Looking at the one from alpha scootz it's £949 and get a 4% discount which brings the price down to £912

[@paulmichealcryptocars9614]

I’ve just bought this bike and it has not come with a legal sticker

[@ExploreVanUK]

Hi, is it definitely the Engine X you bought rather than the Engine Pro? If so I would contact Engwe direct as should have. In the meantime you can find a copy of the Conformity Certificate here - cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0549/9017/6300/files/X.pdf?v=1678869511

[@derekt7606]

Two of these very heavy for cycle rack on Motorhomes. Promoting an easy way to get around safety legislation. Another video solely about earning £

[@ExploreVanUK]

Hi, thanks for your comment, it's a good point and exactly why I talk about weight in the video, along with their ability to be folded for storage/transport in a motorhome garage or carried in a van or car boot rather than on a bike rack. The key point of the video is actually about the importance of choosing a bike that does meet the legislation, unlike many that don't. Sorry you feel that our videos are solely about making money, we make a point of only sharing products that we are comfortable to endorse and would pay for ourselves. Like most KZbin channels we do make money from affiliate sales on some of the products and our viewers often benefit from discounts (such as the £100 off on this one) this is made clear in the video description and product placement tagging. We are a business and the money we earn helps us to continue to make videos, however for a channel of our small size there isn't a huge amount left after the HMRC have taken their cut and we've paid the overheads of public liability insurance, licensing etc.

[@johnsouthwales1078]

I dont care what a sticker says. If it is a restricted 750w, it is not legal....the only legal bike is an actual 250w motor

[@ExploreVanUK]

The Engine X is a 250w motor so it meets your criteria . It’s also worth noting the UK Legislation states: “must have a maximum power output of 250 watts” It doesn’t say it has to be a 250w motor. www.gov.uk/electric-bike-rules

[@RamblingTog]

There a bloody nuisance

[@ExploreVanUK]

When used inconsiderately they are, but then again so are normal bikes. When used considerately I think they are a great way for those that wouldn’t normally cycle to do so.

[@colinwatkins2950]

rediculous a 250w motor cant get you up a steep bank, a 500w motor can with ease.

[@ExploreVanUK]

You’re right, and I don’t think they should be expected to as they are electrically “assisted” bikes. You can buy a road legal electric motorbike, take your licences and pay for insurance if you want a bike that is self propelled.

[@colinwatkins2950]

what law,there is no law in this country.the last time i saw a police car or even a policeman or women was weeks ago and im always on my illegal bike going everwhere for the past 3 years.

[@ExploreVanUK]

Not a lot I can say to that. Good for you. But I couldn’t condone it.

[@colinwatkins2950]

the police never check on these illegal bikes.infact the police dont do there job unless its royal protection or football security not crime.high paid salary for little work.

[@ExploreVanUK]

Can’t speak for other areas but they certainly are in Birmingham and Cardiff and confiscating / crushing + potential points on licence and fine. (Driving not in accordance with licence and No insurance) In the Netherlands they are taking it very seriously with road side testing rigs to prove any that are claiming to be compliant but actually aren’t.
