EG Vienna 250 Overview

Introducing the EG Vienna 250, a folding electric bike that’s perfect for urban commuting and compact storage. The name “250” comes from its 250-watt internally geared rear hub motor, which offers a reliable and efficient riding experience. Upgraded from the 2014 model, the 2016 version boasts several improvements, including a Shimano Acera drivetrain and an additional gear, bringing the total to seven.

This folding e-bike features 20-inch wheels with 13-gauge spokes, designed for durability and stability. The smaller wheel size not only makes the bike more compact when folded but also provides the motor with a leverage advantage, making it more efficient despite its modest power. The EG Vienna 250 remains lightweight at just 43.5 pounds, with a 36-volt battery that significantly enhances its performance compared to its predecessor.

One of the standout features is the large chainring with a plastic guide to prevent the chain from dropping, even when using the throttle mode. The folding pedals, made from durable plastic, contribute to the bike’s portability and cost-effectiveness.

The 36-volt battery, upgraded from a 24-volt in the older model, offers more power and range, while still maintaining a lightweight profile. The battery pack, equipped with Samsung cells, weighs about four pounds and is covered by a one-year comprehensive warranty. The bike’s frame is high-tensile steel, which balances weight and strength, though it lacks suspension, a feature present in the earlier version.

Safety and practicality are key elements of the EG Vienna 250. It features mechanical linear pull brakes with motor inhibitors, ensuring that the motor power is cut off when the brakes are applied. The handlebars are flat with a telescoping stem for adjustable comfort, and the bike includes ergonomic grips and a comfortable saddle.

The bike’s folding mechanism is straightforward, with secure locks and adjustable tension to keep everything in place. The seat post, notably long at 550 millimeters, allows for a highly adjustable riding position, accommodating a wide range of rider heights.

Additional features include plastic fenders with mud flaps, a rear carry rack with a 25-kilogram capacity, and independent LED lights for both front and rear. While the lights are not wired into the main battery, they are powered by double-A batteries, ensuring visibility even when the bike’s main power is off.

The EG Vienna 250 also includes a USB charging port on the battery, allowing you to charge your phone or GPS device on the go. The bike’s cockpit is equipped with an LED console displaying battery capacity and pedal assist modes, and a trigger throttle for immediate power boost.

Overall, the EG Vienna 250 is an affordable, well-designed folding e-bike that offers great value for its price. It’s compact, lightweight, and packed with practical features, making it an excellent choice for urban commuters and casual riders alike.
