Small, sturdy, shareable: Tenways CGO Compact rethinks the city bike

Verge reviews the Tenways CGO Compact, a €1,999 (about $2,365) compact city e-bike designed for sharing. It quickly fits riders 160–190 cm with tool-free height and handlebar adjustments, folds to a slim 20-inch-wheeled profile, and supports up to 27 kg on the rear rack. Powered by a 250W rear-hub motor with 45 Nm of torque, its 494.36Wh battery delivers about 65 km of range and charges in 4.5 hours. It includes integrated lights, mudguards, a PIN-protected LCD, and a largely optional app. The ride is comfortable and capable on hills for its size, making it a strong, adaptable option for European cities—though quick-release parts raise theft concerns and the app offers little beyond basic data.

Pinion's ON.E eDrive: The Ultimate Integrated Motor and Gearbox for eBikes.

Pinion has launched the ON.E ebike edrive system, the first self-contained ebike transmission, combining a mid-drive motor and an electronic shift gearbox into a single lightweight, compact and durable solution to both drivetrain and powertrain. The MGU of the Pinion ON.E eDrive system always knows what gear the rider is in, what cadence and pedal-power the rider is inputting, and can adjust the speed and motor power support accordingly for perfect internal shifts and smooth power output to the rear wheel. The ON.E means an ebike that "knows when to shift, shifts precisely, reliably, instantaneously and - depending on the setting - can even shift for you".
