Our take
Engwe Zip
The portability champion. At just 19.4 kg it triple-folds small enough to carry onto a train or into the office, and the battery lifts out in a bag to charge at your desk. Same torque-sensor assist as the bigger bikes — you put the effort in, it amplifies it — with enough real-world range for several commutes between charges. Pick it when getting the bike through doors and onto public transport matters most.
KENOTU K10
KENOTU supplied this bike for review. It has not arrived yet, so nothing on this page comes from riding it — every figure below is KENOTU's own published specification or a written answer from them, and it is labelled as such. We will update the page once the bike is here and we have ridden it. Confirmed by KENOTU in writing on 18 September 2026: the 250 W figure is the continuous rated output under EN 15194; the battery is 250 Wh; a full charge takes about two to three hours; the 150 kg maximum load is rider and luggage combined; the tyres are 16 in by 3.5 cm; and there is no GPS tracking.
