Our verdict on each
Kemoway France
Kemoway France suits riders who want a mid-drive, city-led range sold direct across DE, FR and IT, and who value a 30 days money back window over the lowest entry price. Its opening price of €1,499 sits above the site median, and city, cargo and emtb keeps the line broad rather than specialist.
Tenways
Tenways suits European commuters who want a mid-drive e-bike with a belt option, a removable battery and a cargo choice at the top, without paying flagship money. Entry pricing of €1,199 sits close to the market median, and the frame warranty runs 5 years. Service is partner based, so check a local workshop before committing.

Pros and cons
Kemoway France
Pros
- city, cargo and emtb covers city, cargo, mountain and folding bikes, so one brand serves several kinds of commute
- The published spec pairs mid drive with hydraulic disc brakes and EU 25 assist
- A claimed range of 170 km from a battery of 720 Wh, above the 436.7 Wh typical across the site
Cons
- Entry price of €1,499 sits above the €876.09 typical across the site, so this is not a budget pick
- Belt drive is no on the models with published specifications, against a 38.5% share of belt-driven bikes on the site
- Servicing runs through partner workshops rather than an in-house network, while 28% of the site keeps its own
Tenways
Pros
- The line spans commuter, city, hybrid, step-through, cargo and longtail types, so one maker covers most daily riding.
- Belt drive is part of the range, which suits riders who want a chain-free drivetrain.
- Removable batteries and hydraulic disc brakes both feature across the line.
Cons
- Support runs on email, help centre and community only, so there is no phone line for a bike that needs a workshop.
- Service runs on a partner network, so a local Tenways workshop is not guaranteed in every market.
- The top of the range, €4,999, sits well above the €2,191.53 typical ceiling for commuter e-bikes.
Who each suits
Kemoway France
Who it suits
- Riders in Germany, FR and IT who want a mid-drive bike without visiting a dealer for every purchase
- Anyone moving a heavier load, since the cargo model is rated to 150 kg
- Commuters who treat a claimed range of 170 km and a battery of 720 Wh as the deciding numbers
Who should look elsewhere
- Buyers on a tight entry budget, since €1,499 sits above the €876.09 typical across the site and Kalkhoff and HK BEIRUI TRADE CO. are worth checking against it
- Riders after a step-through or hybrid frame, since those types sit outside city, cargo and emtb while Kalkhoff covers city, hybrid and step through
- Anyone wanting servicing from a brand's own workshops, since work here runs through partner workshops and 28% of the site keeps its own
Tenways
Who it suits
- Commuters in Austria, BE and BG who want a mid-drive bike with a removable battery and hydraulic disc brakes.
- Riders who need real carrying capacity, since the Longtail Duo takes 220 kg.
- Buyers who prefer a chain-free drivetail, as belt drive is part of the range.
Who should look elsewhere
- Riders who want mountain terrain, since Kalkhoff carries emtb models that Tenways does not list.
- Anyone wanting a folding bike, as Tern and HK Beirui Trade Co. both list folding while Tenways does not.

Questions about each
Kemoway France
How much does a Kemoway France e-bike cost?+
The range starts at €1,499 and runs to €2,799 across Kemoway K5, Kemoway P7, Kemoway K5S, Kemoway Z3. That start sits above the €876.09 entry price typical across the site, so this reads as a mid-market brand rather than a budget one. Finance is offered, which spreads the difference between the entry and the top of the range.
What motor and brakes does the mid-range bike use?+
The published specification pairs a mid motor rated at 250 W nominal watts with hydraulic disc brakes. That power sits at the 250 W end of the site's range, so expect steady assistance rather than a high-output motor. Mid-drive placement also keeps the mass low and central on the frame.
Tenways
What does a Tenways e-bike cost?+
Prices start at €1,199 for the entry bike in the range and run up to €4,999 for the AGO Performance at the top of the line. Both ends are one-off purchase prices, not subscription fees. The Longtail Duo sits inside that span as the cargo option, and the site lists 3 alternatives for side-by-side reading.
Can I pay for a Tenways in instalments?+
Finance is available, so the entry price of €1,199 on the cheapest bike in the line can be spread rather than paid in one go. Terms are set at the point of purchase rather than quoted as a standard rate, so check the figures you are given before you commit. The top of the range is €4,999.
