Best Engwe model for commuting?

by TrailNicoleabout 1 month ago

Looking at Engwe bikes for my 12-mile commute. Considering the Engine Pro vs the X26. The X26 is cheaper but Engine Pro has better components. What would you recommend for daily commuting on mixed terrain?

This is a common question. The key thing to know is: start with lower assist levels to extend your range

I would go with the engine pro if you want to make the round trip on a single charge. I bought an X26 for my wife and wish I had gone with the EP.
