The rear shock, which is hidden behind the split seat tubeof the eWME 4.9, not only creates a visual appealing look, but also has another advantage: In this position, it is particularly protected from external influences.
Shimano motors remain at the top of the engine popularity alongside Bosch motors. No wonder, as evidenced by EP8. Even gnarly inclines the Shimano motor easily climbs up well Even though the EP8 doesn't reach the performance of a Bosch CX Motor at maximum output, for example.. The Shimano EP8 provides a natural riding experience with a harmonious power delivery. Whoever enjoys longer tours will be pleased with the good range.

At a glance

The most importanten ratings of the Conway eWME 4.9 in comparison to the competitor bikes of following categorie: (4000) .

Rough descents take away some of the fear thanks to the average chassis. At the brakes, Conway middle class four pistons brakes by Magura are used. The drivetrain and components have a subordinate but not to be neglected importance when it comes to EMTB. Even the bike brand product managers know this and don't aim too high with mostly average components. When it comes to the geometry, Conway does not go completely crazy. The head tube angle and reach values were chosen with care. The result: A balanced riding behaviour with a good combination of playfulness and straight-line stability. The bottom bracket is high, which costs handling points. This tends to make the rider stand on the bike. On other EMTBs it feels better integrated. Even when it gets really steep, the long chainstays will stick the front wheel to the ground. The steep seat angle puts the rider far forward in the bike. This puts pressure on the front, which additionally increases the climbing abilities in technical uphills.

Conclusion


Expirience with the Conway eWME 4.9

With a good motor and a good range the eWME 4.9 counts among the better climbers on the market. This emphasizes its fun factor on tours on extremely demanding single trails. Nevertheless, a mediocre groupset also give cause for criticism. We have to stay honest. The generous warranty of 5 years proves that Conway stands behind its products.
