what's happening everyone my name is alex and welcome back in today's video we are checking
out a very unique looking e-bike so the one that we have today it's called the engine pro and this
looks a lot like a small motorcycle it almost weighs as much as a small motorcycle as well
so this way it's about 30 kilos so if you do have to take this up the stairs or if you're
trying to put it in your car it is a bit on the heavy side now you can also fold it so we have
a folding mechanism right here in the middle and the handle bar goes down as well so it makes it
a bit easier to carry but overall this is still a pretty massive bike we get 20 inch wheels and four
inch wide tires and i guess the tires are what make this bike look the way it looks and whenever
you're riding along people just turn their heads around and look at you because it does look quite
unique we have a front suspension and we have a rear suspension as well the front suspension
has about two and a half inch of travel so not the highest amount of travel there and about
an inch on the back however this helps when you're going over uneven surfaces i'm gonna say if you're
just riding on a nice um nicely paved road no issues whatsoever but whenever you're riding over
uneven terrain that suspension definitely helps of course those massive tires also help a lot so you
don't feel those bumps as much both tires have mod guards as well so on the front and on the back but
the only thing i don't like about these mod guards is whenever you're going over uneven surfaces
they do rattle a lot so i do plan on removing this and this in the near future on the back here
we also have a bike rack and i plan on removing that one as well i guess if you do like the way
that bike rack looks some you could even put like a bag on it or something like that but personally
i'm gonna remove this and this in the very near future the handlebar is adjustable in height so
you can make it higher and the same goes for the seat the sweet is also nice and squishy
so even if you ride for a couple of hours you don't get tired i did see other bikes in the past
and you do get tired when you sit on that seat but this one is quite comfortable for longer periods
of riding basically on the back here we have a 750 watt motor and that's powered by a 12.8 amp hour
battery that's inside the frame here the battery is also removable so whenever you're charging it
you can charge it right through here so there is a charging port here or you can remove the battery
from the bike and you can charge it that way with the charger that comes in the box it takes about
five to six hours to fully charge this from zero to a hundred now on one charge you can get between
25 to 70 kilometers of range depending how you ride the bike because you can ride it um
so the electric motor assists you on your pedaling or you can just ride it um like full electric so
just on that rear motor if you do ride it without uh pedaling you're gonna get about 20 to 25
kilometers on a charge but if you do pedal and the bike just assists you you're gonna get about
70 kilometers so i'm going to say on a charge and this is a quick example just so you can understand
how the bike works um when you're pedaling basically and how it works when you are
just using the electric motor basically i'm also going to show you a small clip so you can
see the top speed if you go full electric so without pedaling so let's check those out and
i'll be right back okay so there are a couple of ways of using this you can use it to assist you
while you're pedaling and you can select the level of assistance we have five four three
two one and zero zero basically no assistance at all i find that two or three is the best mod
so you can start pedaling it takes a couple of seconds for the motor to kick in
and now it basically helps you pedal or you can just ride it uh with the motor itself so you don't
have to pedal for that i usually go to four or five and then you accelerate from here like this
so next let me show you how fast this can go if you're not pedaling so without any pedaling just
on the electric motor okay so let me show you how this works on the electric mode only
i'm also going to show you the top speed that you can reach on a flat surface if you're just
going electric so if you're not pedaling so i'm going to accelerate from here
and we'll keep going and see how fast this goes on electric only
so about 28 now
so about 35 on electric only
37 now
so about 37 is the top speed if you go electric only
okay so as you've seen in that video the top speed on electric only was about 38 kilometers an hour
i did see the bike going about 43 kilometers an hour on a different day but i wasn't filming at
that time but i did see it go a bit faster now if you are going uphill the bike doesn't have
enough power to take you uphill on electric only so you're gonna have to start pedaling so there
isn't that much power so don't imagine you're gonna be riding hills like this on electric only
you still have to do a bit of um work for braking we have disc brakes on the back and of course on
the front these are logan brakes and those discs are 160 millimeters um discs the braking power
is pretty good for a bike like this i'm gonna say this is a quick example so you can see how quick
the bike breaks from about 27 kilometers an hour i think i was doing about 27 kilometers an hour
when i filmed that clip so for braking no problems whatsoever i'm very happy with the braking power
the bike is using a shimano shifter this is a 8-speed setup and i think it's decent enough
so you can go fast when you need to go fast and slow enough if you're going over uneven terrain
i'm gonna say so once again i haven't had any issues when i was shifting up or shifting down
the gears everything does seem to work quite good but as i mentioned earlier because of this
so the mud guards on the front and on the back when you're going over uneven terrain
the bike does make a lot of noise and that is the main reason why i'm gonna be removing the
front and the back here on the back we also have a light and we have another light on the front
i'm happy with the front light it's powerful enough if you ride at night so you can see clearly
ahead of you but the rear light isn't that bright so i wish to have had a better light
on the back here hopefully i can replace that with something better but the one that comes
from the factory isn't that great i would have also like to see the rear the light here um
turning on whenever you are braking it doesn't do that either so it would have been ideal so you can
have like a braking um signal almost but not with this bike we have a pretty heavy duty kickstand on
this side this will hold the bike in place even if it's um super windy it does work really well there
is a little guard here that protects the shifter and the pedals are also made out of metal and they
fold folding them makes sense you can store the bike a bit easier it takes a bit less space if you
do fold those pedals in on the handlebar here we have all the controls we have the front and rear
brakes and of course and we have a little screen that will show you how much power you have it will
show you how much power you are using it will show you how many kilometers you've done it will show
you the level of assistance that you have enabled and so on and here we have a couple of buttons so
you can actually change that level of assistance and the little accelerator so when you want to
go electric only you basically accelerate from this button and we have a little horn as well
it's not bad i think um overall so yeah i love this screen because you can clearly see it in
direct sunlight too inside the screen there also seems to be a light sensor so the front and rear
lights will turn on by themselves whenever it gets dark outside there is a button here as well that
allows you to turn on those lights manually so i've been riding this for about a week now so far
i love the riding position because you're always nice and straight the handlebar is high up so
your knees don't actually hit the handlebar with other bikes your knees kind of hit the handlebar
that's not the case with this one it's super comfortable but the downsides to it are the
fact that it makes a lot of noise because of this mod card on the front and this one on the back
and the fact that it's super heavy when i have to carry it on three sets of stairs it does get a bit
heavy but i'm hoping that once i remove these it will be better so overall i am happy with it
but there could have been some things that would have could have been better basically the shocks
do a decent enough job when you go over uneven terrain even though the bike is pretty heavy so
i don't really recommend going off-roading with it even though those massive tires do help a lot
when there are bumps in the road and so on for me personally the
motor has more than enough power so i don't feel like i need more power and if i go up a
hill i just pedal a bit more so no issues with that so overall i'm happy with it but i wish
a couple of things would have been different so yeah this is the engine pro e-bike all right
guys hopefully this video was useful thanks for watching and i'll see you guys in the next one
