Stumbled across this channel by accident and it seems really quite good! I like the presenter - very engaging, genuine and pleasant which is great stuff. Hope she recovers from bus accident!

Good for you highlighting how an accident or even a scare, unlike with a car, can knock your confidence. It needs highlighting more, as drivers just go around doing it like its nothing, but it feels like you have threatened or assaulted!

i have had a elec bike for a few years now something i love about them is you can get up to speed so quickly with little effort great bonus when in traffic

Great review. Honestly I could listen to her talk all day. Nice job.

Lovely well informed technical review with good accurate information unlike some. I have a similar Gtech sport which I have uprated and sold the standard parts so it has cost nothing to do and it has transformed its usability.

It does look awesome, and the attention to the toolkit was great. It really needs that kick stand as standard though. Great review 😀

No wonder this is a premium e-bike, it's from the Netherlands! Bike capital of the world! I just looked them up and they deliver to the US. Sweet! Thank you for the review as I would have never known about this brand. And it is belt driven!!!!! Damn!

I like the smart torque sensing to assist, without having to fiddle with settings or switches. Belt drive must be as quiet as it can get.

Very nicely done in review! I ride a Specialized Turbo Vado SL 4.0 which seems to be a very similar type bike without the Gates carbon belt and rear hub motor. A fantastic bike for those of us looking to get a more fitness oriented bike along with a bit of help when needed. Happy to hear that bus didn't get the best or you!

Buses can be fun. Newport Beach California a few years ago and a bus pulled up next to me just like yours. Almost squeezed into the curb before I took evasive action. Was able to get over to the drivers side, rode up to the front, right next to the driver, and slugged the bus as hard as I could. Made an awesome thump and he slammed on his brakes. I just kept on going with a huge smile. Buses can be fun =:)

I really like how it has no gears and a belt drive. Less maintenance and less to worry about. I love the simplicity of it. 🙂

Nice review. Too many steep hills where I live for this bike but I do like it being lightweight for putting it on a bike rack etc... Subbed.

Thanks for sharing! Looks like a nice bike. Range estimates from the manufacturer are always just that, estimates. One rider might do 50km and use 10 percent of the battery power. Another might do the same distance but use 90 percent. Just too many variables. Rider weight, rider clothing, backpacks and panniers or lack thereof, tyre pressure, wind, rain, road surface, hills, assistance level, speed of riding, etc, etc, etc...

Looks great. Great review as always. In a hilly terrain like San Francisco, you just need to plan your ride so it’s doable. Put in the work and enjoy the ride!

Your review helped me to make my decision. It arrived today and I had my first ride this evening. It's a great bike. So glad I got it 🙂

I give you a thumb up straight ahead because of you giving the name of the bike in the title and not forcing me to go thru the whole video. Cheers!

Bike is amazing. Mine came in back in early January and I loved it so much I ordered a second one for my wife. Awesome bike. Torque sensor makes it.

Nice review, thank you! Liked and subscribed. Very nice bike, you'd never know it was an e-bike at all. Cheers!

I'm new here!! Great produced video!! Love your channel!! Keep up the great work! 💪💪

Thanks Eilis!! I'm very grateful for your review!! I purchased the CGO600 in Arctic Blue and really like it! Thank you ever so much!! You're the BEST!!! I live in Bartlesville, Oklahoma, USA.

Great video. Loved watching it.

Thanks so much! I'm grateful for your review!

Glad you’re back on the saddle

sorry to hear about your accident :( glad to see you are back on a bike :)

Nothing fell off 🤣🤣🤣 very nice review. Mesmerizing presenter. All the best to get over the bus collision.

This Tenways CGo600 surely has a lot going for it, the rear motor setup being one of them and of course the Gates belt drive. Maybe you could put it in a head-to-head test with the Ostrichoo Zeno, also a Dutch e-bike with a rear motor. Its party piece being a supercapacitor instead of a lithium-ion battery, which means it only takes 30 minutes to charge fully. As always watching this review was fun, looking forward to more e-bikes tested in the real world

I'm in love! Seriously, that E-bike is awfully nice.

Thanks for the review Eilis. If e-scooters never get approved I might have to go for a bike so your review and valued opinion is very helpful.

Great bike perfect for commuting and climbs with great ease.

Nice one - just what I asked for a few weeks ago! Thanks

Torque sensor with 40 Nm pedal assist (acts as a “throttle”) will do very nicely, indeed.

They need to make a dutch classic for old gentlemen and ladies :-). A 500 W would be also welcomed.

I've had one since October, great bike for my commute to work. Its not designed to climb steep hills but you get them with some effort. The torque sensor is brilliant, it makes you feel like your legs are supercharged and its really smooth. One important bit is that the support is superb, extremely responsive and very helpful

First , excellent salesmanship and product knowledge. Tenway has definitely peaked my interest ahead from other established brands. I enjoyed your enthusiasm about why bicycling is the way to save on gasoline ⛽ and daily automotive maintenance.

Excellent review, Thanks 🙏

My Tenways electric bike arrived 4 days ago and I am enjoying riding it. I got the bike after watching your KZfaq video. This is my first electric bike and the torque sensor works like magic. The customer service is really good. I would have liked a removable battery for ease of use but I guess it wound my fit with design. I got the stands and mudguards for free. I am really impressed with the look and feel and hoping to take it for longer rides.

Nice review. Nice bike! Thanks!

Don't forget the Bike to Work scheme too if at all possible - This ebike looks really nicely designed especially with the Nexus Hub Gears and belt drive. A specialized or Trek equivalent would be over £2K . I would definitely get the mudguards cos it's mostly wet in UK : )

Beautiful bike, beautiful review.

Nice titles in both units systems. 🙂 Thank you.

Good choice 👌 I think I would like hub gears ⚙

Thanks Eilis for the Stellar review!! I purchased the CGO600 in Arctic Blue and really like it! Thank you ever so much!! You're the BEST!!! Sincerely, John Larson, Bartlesville, Oklahoma, USA.

I love your reviews! This bike is something even I could go for as I like the non-electric bike. You should adjust the break levers for one finger breaking ❤️

If I was in the market for an e-bike I’d definitely look at this. And you’re right about the cost. If it’s going to be your every day transport instead of buses or trains then it’ll pay for itself after a while. I think they should offer more personalisation with seats and things if you’re spending that much.

I'm waiting for someone to produce a reasonably lightweight, Fazua-powered e-bike with an 11 speed Alfine rear hub and Gates CDX belt drive. I'm sure it can't be that difficult (as all the tech is already there), but I'm still waiting!....

Really impressive, I want one!

Mine has the same geometry but 48v, rim brake, 600+watts, and uses a triangle bag which allows things to be serviceable

I wanted something with high torque so decided to go with a 500W TSDZ2 and Voodoo Marasa. Doesn't look as stealthy as this one but works great for me.

Thanks for your review. It's creative and informative. Looks like a very good option for a commuter. Obviously biased towards riding on smooth surfaces, but in that environment, a 15kg bike with those aesthetics and range would seem to be very attractive. I like the idea of dispensing with the chain, though ultimately, a chain can be recycled more easily. Also loved the fact that you were wearing your hi viz and had the lights on throughout the riding sequences lol.

I will joining my first job soon and this bike could be a great way for me to travel back and forth.

I have an analog motion AMX which is British designed and has proved to be a great durable smooth bike. It has a separate Panasonic batteries which I like so you can use the bike as non electric. The Tenways looks like it is in a similar vein and can only be a good thing to bring more choice and availabilty at that price level.

I really love your channel. I got myself an Evobike travel maby only sells in Sweden but i love it.

Spot on with the comparison to e.g. gym membership. Excellent video, thumbs up! :)

Seems like a great bike but at 5ft their medium frame is still way too big for me. So yet again another bike that I can’t ride. What a shame that bike manufacturers just leave out so many of us

I allready have a tenways but I really enjoied your presentation.

what is the gear ratio? (is it more like high gear or middle grounds) is it possible/comfortable to ride this bike if you run out of battery?

Nice video on this bike. One question I have is if the battery is removable in case it needs to be replaced in 5-10 years?

Nice review. Great pick for tiny person ....I mean normal ppl and flat area. Like that it has belt drive, hydraulic brakes, hidden battery and even single gear for simplicity. Don't like for me personally, too light weight, not enough power and I need more gears for mountainous area. But it does look like a fantastic bike for many many ppl. Just a counter point, some of us have arthritis and other "light" disabilities that E-bikes with full assist can help on days when pedaling is not so easy. I wish for days when I could leap on a bike with no thought to assistance.

I had a problem which took some time to get resolved in that VAT has to be paid by the receiver on goods shipped into the U.K. their website stated that VAT was pre-paid - but it certainly wasn’t. It was resolved when they gave me a refund for the VAT and I then paid the bill. Took a few iterations with their support though.

Love the belt, for winter

I'd love to know how this compares to the Cowboy C4. Have you had the chance to try that? I've had one on order since July 2021 still not received it and starting to think of alternatives

I found this channel searching for EMTB information so i can make an informed buy, i loved this model bike but found you cant buy then in Australia :( love the presenter and how she delivers like a polished presenter

Great video. Ive got a Orbea vide . Have you tried one ? I love my vide just about the same but with gears . I ride it for miles without the power on. Keep up your great videos and take care Paul

It still needs mounting brackets (eye holes) for mounting a rack, it needs suspension, and it needs a minimum 750 watt motor. That would make it useful

Just had double knee replacement and am considering an e-bike to help my rehabilitation. Have not ridden a bike for about 20yrs so am a tad apprehensive. However, I would only use on quieter roads in outer London.

Does it have different pedal assist modes? If yes, which one did you use in your 22 mile ride? Thanks

What a great video. Firstly, I am pleaed to hear that you are well after the incident wiht the bus as it's great to see you regain your confidence. I loved this video as it was really helpful and very informative. The only information I am unable to gain anywhere is regarding the battery. Can you remove the battery to charge or do you charge directly into the bike? If you can let me know, I would be most grateful!! I live in a 2bf floor apartement as this will help me make this importent decision. Keep up the great work with the amazing video's you produce as it's really appreciated!! Thank you.

Perfect feature set for a low-maintenance commuter

Thank you for the review, after watching it I decided to buy it. Shipment was very fast, I received it in 2 days. And indeed, it's a real pleasure to ride. Also currently you can get the mudguards and kickstand for free with your order which saved me about 100 euros.

This looks like a lovely option for relatively flat city commuting, but I don't think it would hold up where I live as there are a lot of hills to contend with.

Thank you for a great review! But I do have one question. If it has no gears is it still suitable for a really hilly town such as I live in?

Looks like a good bike, but I wish they do one with a rear suspension one, the roads are terrible where I live and a commuter bike with rear suspension would help prevent a sore back :)

I’m watching you from Florida and I just wanted to say “ you look so natural in front of the camera “, your next step should be movies...really!

I loved the use of the Brazilian meme, the confused Nazaré.... you can use more, we love it

This bike has a different audience than me, but it’s good seeing innovation at the lower end of the eBike market. Belt drive is an excellent choice for a market segment that probably never turns a wrench and has no thought about bike maintenance schedules. My first question regards regards future parts availability in 10-20 years, or even now globally? eBikes with mainstream components will have much easier maintenance paths versus a new bicycle brand with proprietary parts. Even on my Santa Cruz mountain bike (SRAM GX Eagle drivetrain) I worry about future availability of custom derailleur hangers. I’m stocking up while I still can. The second question is rear hub durability and ease of maintenance? Thx.

one question. What degree of customization can you get in relation to tire sizes? From what it seems, it comes with 1.9 tires. Is there room for 2.2's? o 2.3's? They would make it way more comfortable to ride, since there's no damping whatsoever. Thanks!!!

For a cheaper, slightly more powerful option with similar features (belt drive, internal battery, etc) I like my Ride1up Roadster. It's got a 350W motor, which really helps on those really steep hills, a real range of about 25 miles when I keep it in modes 1-3 on my 6'3, 200lb frame, rim brakes (useful when you have to use weird public transit bike racks) and is super light (It's about 4 pounds heavier than my road bike) at only about $1000, it's kind of a hard thing to beat. The company is pretty awesome too. Great sales support, and the whole thing's been taking really abusive (saltwater spray on the back of a ferry, steep hills) treatment with no complaint at all. This does look like a more premium version of that. I do just think 250w without a geared hub is not enough, the battery range is INSANELY optimistic, and a torque sensor only (cadence sensors are the real "premium" feature) I don't think I'd drop another $800 on that.

It's like everything cost is paramount to most of us. Would love to buy an ebike but budget won't let me. Great video......

Hey Eilis! I just stumbled across your site this week and I'm hooked! I have a couple of questions. Why don't you use clip in cycling shoes? I'm confident that the major players would love having you promoting their products. Also, have you reviewed a bike from the brand Lectric? I'm very interested in their XPeak fat tire bike and would be curious to hear what you think. Keep up the great work. Love your presentation style and delivery!

Lovely bike and a great price. It wouldn't work for me as I'm 155 cm and the bar would be difficult. I live in France and have an 02Feel French electric bike which is also a great bike, perhaps a review on one of them would be good. . Thanks for the review, really enjoyed it.

Looks good .👍

Looks like a pretty sleek machine, nice look and features. My only grip is the range...My daily commute is 36 miles so It would probably fall short in this regard.

I currently have a Gtech ebike and I really like the tenways bike. It is very similar to the Gtech and I am going to purchase one. A great video and really informative. Would like to know if you need to charge the battery on the bike or is it removable?

Should you get the chance, give the Raleigh Felix+ a go. Bosch mid motor, Intuvia display, hydraulic discs, lights, mudguards, rack, bell, side stand, rear wheel lock all as standard. Quality build too. Not cheap at around £2,100 but worth considering if you're in the market for one. Just remember E bikes are not built for speed but powered assistance when needed!

What happens when you have to change the battery? Seems like a great bike, but the battery situation could be major headache in the long term.

This is a great review but, even though I live in NYC, the Tenways bike is a hard sell. Most e-bike shops will not fix a broken e-bike you bought from somewhere else, especially one shipped from Europe. VanMoof has a shop here in NYC and I'd be lucky to have them close by when my bike broke. Elsewhere in the U.S., if your VanMoof is broken you have to ship your bike to VanMoof here in NYC! It's crazy. Just a quick search and you'll find many people who have problems with their VanMoofs. Tenways will have issues and breaks and malfunctions too and you will be screwed. It's just a matter of time.

How do you replace the battery if you either want to go for a long ride and want to carry an extra one or when the battery finally wheres out .

Great looking ebike I have an orbea vibe h10 mudd similar design battery in the down tube disc brakes carbon forks lightweight I have to carry it upstairs to my flat I also purchased an extra battery which trickle feeds the main battery so you can go further it’s XL I’m 6.4 but it’s great.

Are you going to make any more videos? Is it the most recent one I see is nine months old I hoping you’re going to make more I just found you today which is the day after New Year’s. Happy new year.

I’ve always heard that mid drive ebikes with external batteries where better, but that does look really nice. I would not be able to tell it was an ebike

Hi, thanks for your review! I bought the bike myself. What saddle did you put on? Thanks in advance!

I like this bike's specs. I wish this company (and VanMoof) shipped to Canada.

I have a question, can the battery be removed to charge as I live in a flat and carrying the bike up the stairs would be a problem. Love your energy and hope your confidence is back after you tussle with the bus. Take care :)

It looks good but what about the battery? When the battery starts to go how can you replace it or upgrade it?

My getech is only 16kg with a belt drive also, that’s a nice looking bike

I can see how light and simple design could appeal to Tenway's target market. I just bought a Milano ebike with similar specs but it has a removable battery and a carry rack on the back plus a bigger LED display. It's also cheaper at a shade over A$1,500. Tenway will set you back US$1,699.00 which I guess is reasonably competitive.

You would be more comfortable if you raised the bars. Also I would have liked to see how you access the battery.

The color is very nice. Where does one procure a MIK compliant back rack that fits the bike and accommodates Basil panniers? And a front rack as well? Is that battery readily available or it proprietary? And where when one buy a second, or replacement battery? Is their service network listed somewhere? Hydraulic brakes are nice.

What's it like on hills?
