Denago Commute Model 1 E-Bike Review 2022

Nov 2022 · Griffin Hales

The Denago Commute Model 1 we're reviewing here is a newer e-bike from a newer company, but that doesn't mean it lacks for experience. The people behind the brand are experienced, not just with bikes, but with e-bikes, specifically. The brand was assembled with numerous team members coming with experience from all corners of the

Highs
  • 500W Shengyi brushless hub motor has plenty of acceleration and the power to deliver riders to a Class 3 max speed of 28 mph

  • 653Wh integrated battery has a low-key look and provided 27 mi. of range in PAS 5

  • 8-speed drivetrain offers a wide range of gears to climb hills and hit near the Class 3 speed limits

  • 27.5 x 2.6-in.-wide tires roll quickly and offer a smooth ride

  • Taller riders will appreciate the L/XL frame size and its comfortable reach

  • PIN lock provides added security from theft

Lows
  • The display shows relevant info but has a rather dated look

  • The fenders help mitigate some splashing, but hopefully a more elongated fender in the future could do an even better job as we noticed a few drops landing on legs while going through puddles.
