Tenways Updates Popular E-Bike with Enhanced Chain Drive System

When e-bike brand TENWAYS hit the market, it turned heads with its sleek, high-performance e-bikes, and now, the brand is offering a new addition to their lineup: the CGO600 Pro-C. This upgraded model, available in the United States, brings something fresh to the table with the introduction of a Shimano chain drive system—a big deal for cyclists who appreciate the trusted feel of a traditional chain alongside the power of an e-bike. It’s the best of both worlds, combining the simplicity of the original CGO600 with a drivetrain that’s all about durability and performance.

So, what sets the CGO600 Pro-C apart? Here’s what makes this version stand out:

A Smooth and Responsive Ride

At the heart of this new model is the Shimano 8-speed drivetrain, which delivers a more direct and efficient power transfer between the pedals and the wheels. This setup is ideal for riders who enjoy a bit more control—especially when facing uphill climbs or needing that extra burst of speed. With the Shimano system, you’ll feel a much more connected experience with the bike, giving you the traditional cycling feel but with a modern e-bike boost.

Durability You Can Count On

There’s a reason Shimano is one of the most trusted names in cycling. Known for their precision engineering and long-lasting components, the Shimano chain drive system on the CGO600 Pro-C is no exception. It is built to offer consistent performance over time with minimal fuss, perfect for riders who don’t want to be constantly tinkering with their bike. Whether you’re commuting daily or taking weekend rides, you can trust the Shimano drive to handle the wear and tear of various terrains and conditions.

Lightweight, Yet Tough 

One thing TENWAYS has never compromised on is weight. The CGO600 Pro-C maintains the same ultra-lightweight frame as its predecessor, weighing in at around 40 pounds. This keeps it nimble and easy to maneuver, whether you’re weaving through traffic or taking a leisurely ride through the park. The lightweight design also makes it easy to carry up stairs or store in tight spaces, making it a great option for city dwellers.

TENWAYS C9 Motor

The CGO600 Pro-C features the powerful TENWAYS C9 motor, offering 45Nm of torque for improved hill-climbing, ultra-quiet 45dB operation, and IPX7 water/dustproof durability. Lightweight and efficient, it ensures a smooth, responsive ride with precise energy control for maximum range.

Simple, Sleek, and Stylish

One thing we loved when testing out the CGO600 Pro earlier this year was its serious style. The new model continues TENWAYS’ tradition of minimalist, stylish design. Its clean lines and smooth frame give it an understated yet premium feel. Whether you’re cruising down the street or parking it outside a café, this e-bike looks as good as it rides. Plus, the subtle integration of its components—like the motor and battery—means you’ll never have to deal with bulky, awkward designs that scream “electric bike.”

Why the Chain Drive Matters

If you’re wondering why TENWAYS made the switch to a chain drive from the carbon drive, it seems to be about catering to a wider range of cyclists. While their previous models featured a belt drive for low-maintenance, hassle-free riding, the new chain version appeals to those who prefer the classic feel of a traditional bike. The chain drive offers greater versatility, making it suitable for a wider range of road conditions and riding scenarios. It’s a small change, but for those who enjoy a little more feedback when pedaling, or who value the tried-and-true reliability of Shimano.

Who Is It For?

The CGO600 Pro-C is ideal for riders who love the sleek design of the original CGO600 but want the feel and performance of a Shimano chain system. Whether you’re a daily commuter, a weekend explorer, or someone looking for an e-bike that fits both your style and performance needs, this version of the CGO600 could be the perfect match. It’s also great for riders who might be new to e-bikes but are already familiar with Shimano’s quality and reliability.

Final Thoughts

TENWAYS has clearly listened to its riders and delivered a bike that bridges the gap between traditional cycling and e-bike technology. The CGO600 Pro-C offers the best of both worlds—a smooth, powerful ride with the reliability of a Shimano chain drive. It’s lightweight, stylish, and built to perform in real-world conditions, from city streets to more challenging terrains.

With the CGO600 Pro-C, TENWAYS continues to redefine what an e-bike can be—keeping things simple, functional, and fun. This new version may just be their most versatile model yet, catering to cyclists who want both high-performance features and the familiar feel of a traditional bike.
