Tenways CGO800S

looks like a very practical, well-thought-through city and commuting e-bike, ideal for coping with all the UK's less than perfect city cycling conditions could throw at it.As with its sportier predecessor, the CGO600, the CGO800S features super smooth and very bike-like torque sensing power, delivered through a single gear belt drive. This is e-biking at its simplest; just switch on, select one of five power levels and off you go.

There's more than enough power for moderate hills and most headwinds but hit a very steep hill and it's clear there is a limit to how much you can coax out of such a small motor and a single speed drivetrain. As the gradient steepens the motor starts to slow and eventually runs out of steam at around 10% grade slopes.

The bike climbed well on the majority of the climb and only slowed from the max assisted speed of 16mph to around 10mph on the two steeper sections of around 10% grade. The CGO800S is a fine city e-bike with its lovely upright, comfortable riding position, swept-back riser handlebars, wide comfortable seat and 28” wheels with 2” wide tyres on them. It gives a reassuringly safe and easy ride, even on busy roads. Cornering was predictable and easy and the forks did a reasonable job of soaking up humps and bumps given their budget credentials. The Tektro hydraulic disc brakes were smooth and powerful and, again, confidence inspiring.
