Tesway X7 AWD — The F-350 of eBikes

If the Himiway A7 Pro is the Volvo, the Tesway X7 AWD is the Ford F-350 Super Duty. More battery than you will empty. More torque than the terrain demands. More stopping power than physics requires. And that deliberate surplus — 3,120 watt-hours, 200 Nm, dual-motor AWD, 4-piston hydraulic brakes with 203 mm rotors — is exactly why riders who need it will not settle for anything less. This is not a bike that asks you to manage your energy. It is a bike that eliminates the question entirely.

52V 60Ah. That is 3,120 Wh in a single integrated pack — the largest battery capacity of any electric bike under $3,000 in our entire catalogue. The Ridetar Q20 Pro ships with 2,080 Wh. The Tesway X9 AWD ships with 1,440 Wh. Every other dual-motor AWD bike at this price point ships with 40–55% less battery. The X7 AWD ships with all of it, charges in 7 hours with the included 58.8V 8A fast charger, and costs $0.77 per watt-hour — the lowest Wh/$ ratio of any dual-motor bike we sell.

It is also 119 lbs. It uses a cadence sensor, not a torque sensor. It does not include turn signals. And the 320 km range claim on the product page is aspirational at best. We will tell you all of that honestly, because the X7 AWD does not need marketing spin to justify itself. The numbers are the argument.

Assembly, Manual & Setup

The X7 AWD ships 85% pre-assembled in a reinforced carton. Final assembly takes 30–45 minutes and requires attaching three components: handlebars, front wheel, and pedals. All required tools are included in the box — no extra purchases needed.

What to do on arrival:

1. Unbox and inventory all parts against the printed checklist
2. Install the front wheel (quick-release axle, align the front brake disc between the caliper pads)
3. Mount and align the handlebars (tighten the stem bolts evenly to avoid creaking)
4. Thread in both pedals (right pedal clockwise, left pedal counter-clockwise)
5. Adjust the seat height (33.5″–40″ range — start low, raise gradually)
6. Charge the battery fully before the first ride (~7 hours from empty)
7. Set up NFC security: tap the included NFC fob to the display to pair it. Keep the spare NFC card in a separate location
8. Test both brakes, both motors (front/rear/AWD modes), and all 5 PAS levels before your first real ride

Printed Owner’s Manual: Included in the box. Covers assembly, display operation, PAS levels (1–5), NFC security pairing, drive mode selection (front/rear/AWD), cruise control activation, charging procedures, and maintenance schedules. For a digital copy, contact support@zeusebikes.ca.

Why 3,120 Wh Changes the Entire Conversation

Every eBike conversation in Canada eventually becomes a battery conversation. “How far does it go?” “What about winter?” “Will it make it to work and back?” The X7 AWD ends that conversation. Here is the math:

Scenario	Standard 720 Wh Bike	Dual-Battery 1,440 Wh	X7 AWD (3,120 Wh)
Summer (usable Wh)	720	1,440	3,120
−10°C winter (30% loss)	504	1,008	2,184
−20°C deep winter (40% loss)	432	864	1,872
Price per Wh	~$2.77/Wh	~$1.65/Wh	$0.77/Wh

At −20°C — the worst Ottawa or Edmonton January — the X7 AWD still has 1,872 Wh of usable battery. That is more energy than most eBikes have in perfect July sunshine. The range anxiety conversation is over. You ride. You come home. You plug in overnight. You do it again tomorrow.

For rural riders, acreage owners, and all-day trail explorers, this is not a luxury — it is the difference between planning around your battery and not thinking about it at all. See our complete long-range eBike guide for the full Wh-to-range calculation →

AWD Explained — When Both Wheels Pull, Nothing Stops You

All-wheel drive is not marketing. It is physics. When both hub motors deliver power simultaneously — front wheel pulling, rear wheel pushing — the X7 AWD finds traction where single-motor bikes spin out. Packed snow. Wet grass. Loose gravel. Sandy trail sections. Icy patches where a rear wheel alone would fishtail. The dual motors split 200 Nm of torque across both axles, and the effect is immediate: the bike claws forward where other bikes stall.

The X7 AWD offers selectable drive modes — rear motor only, front motor only, or full AWD. On dry pavement, run rear-only to conserve battery. On loose or slippery surfaces, engage AWD. On steep gravel climbs, AWD plus low PAS lets the bike crawl up grades that would stall a single hub motor. This flexibility means you are not running both motors (and draining both motors’ share of the battery) when you do not need to.

Key Features

• 52V 60Ah Lithium Battery (3,120 Wh) — Largest in Our Catalogue — The battery is not an accessory on the X7 AWD — it is the bike. 3,120 Wh integrated into the frame, removable for indoor charging (the battery alone weighs 29.8 lbs / 13.5 kg — plan accordingly). Tesway claims up to 320 km under ideal conditions; real-world Canadian mixed riding delivers 160–260 km in summer and 100–180 km in winter after cold-weather loss. The included 58.8V 8A fast charger is noticeably faster than the 2–3A chargers shipped with most competitors — approximately 7 hours from empty to full. Store the battery indoors overnight in winter; lithium cells degrade faster when stored below −10°C. Full range calculation guide →
• Dual Hub Motor AWD — 2,000W Rated / 3,600W Peak / 200 Nm Combined Torque — Front and rear brushless hub motors work independently or in tandem. Selectable modes: rear only (conserve battery on dry roads), front only (rare use case), or full AWD (snow, gravel, mud, steep climbs). 200 Nm combined torque is in the same territory as the Ridetar Q20 Pro (180 Nm) and exceeds the Fat AWD 3.0 (110 Nm). Top speed reaches approximately 60 km/h (38 mph) — well above any Canadian street-legal limit, reinforcing that this is an off-road and private-property machine. Wattage guide →
• 120 mm Dual-Crown Motorcycle-Grade Hydraulic Fork — This is not a bicycle suspension fork with a motorcycle label. It is a dual-crown design — the same architecture used on downhill mountain bikes and actual motorcycles — meaning two crown plates clamp both stanchions for dramatically higher stiffness and tracking accuracy than a single-crown fork. 120 mm of hydraulic travel absorbs Canadian potholes, gravel washboard, root-crossed trails, and frost-heaved urban roads. The hydraulic damping controls rebound so the fork does not pogo after a hit — a common problem on cheap spring forks shipped with sub-$2,000 eBikes.
• Full Rear Suspension — Dual Spring Shocks — Two rear spring shocks complement the front fork for a fully suspended ride. The rear end stays planted over rough terrain rather than bucking the rider off the saddle on every bump. Combined with the 119 lb bike weight (which itself acts as a natural damper), the X7 AWD rides smoother than its price suggests.
• 4-Piston Hydraulic Disc Brakes — 203 mm Rotors Front & Rear — Four pistons per caliper is premium hardware. Most eBikes under $3,000 ship with 2-piston calipers and 160–180 mm rotors. Four pistons spread braking force across a larger pad surface, reducing fade on long descents and delivering more consistent stopping power in wet and cold conditions. The oversized 203 mm rotors (compared to the standard 160–180 mm on most eBikes) provide the leverage needed to stop 119 lbs of bike + 350 lbs of payload from 60 km/h. This brake system is one of the strongest spec choices on the entire bike.
• 20×4.0″ Kenda Fat Tires — Puncture-Resistant with Reflective Strips — Kenda is a Tier 1 tire manufacturer — not a no-name rubber with a sticker. The 4.0-inch width provides a wide, stable contact patch that grips snow, sand, wet gravel, and loose dirt. Puncture-resistant casing reduces flats from glass, thorns, and road debris. Reflective side strips add nighttime visibility from the side — a safety detail most fat-tire eBikes omit. The 20-inch wheel diameter keeps the centre of gravity low, which matters at 119 lbs — a low CG means stability, not tippy handling.
• Shimano 7-Speed Rear Derailleur — Shimano is the world’s most serviceable drivetrain brand — every bike shop in Canada stocks parts and knows how to tune it. The 7-speed range covers flat cruising in high gear and hill climbing in low gear. Under the motor’s 200 Nm of torque, shift under light pedal pressure to protect the chain and derailleur — the same rule that applies to every geared eBike. For riders used to higher-end 8–11 speed Shimano groupsets (Altus, Acera, Deore), the 7-speed will feel wider-spaced between gears. It is functional, not refined.
• Full-Colour LCD Display with NFC Keyless Security & USB Port — The display shows real-time speed, battery percentage, PAS level (1–5), trip distance, odometer, and drive mode (front/rear/AWD). NFC tap-to-unlock means the bike does not start without the paired NFC fob or card — a genuine anti-theft layer that most eBikes at any price do not offer. Two NFC devices are included; keep one on your keychain and the spare at home. The built-in USB port charges your phone from the main battery while you ride.
• 99 Lumen Auto-Sensing Motorcycle-Style LED Headlight (IPX6) — Auto-sensing brightness adjusts to ambient light conditions — brighter at dusk, dimmer in daylight. The IPX6 waterproof rating means it survives direct water jets, not just rain. For Canadian riders dealing with road spray, puddle splashes, and spring melt runoff, IPX6 is a meaningful upgrade over the IPX4 lights found on most competitors. Integrated rear LED taillight provides visibility from behind.
• Cruise Control — Hold your current speed without maintaining throttle pressure. Useful on long, flat stretches of trail or rural road where you want consistent motor output. Tap the brake lever to disengage instantly.
• UL 2849 + TÜV Dual Safety Certification — UL 2849 is the North American gold standard for eBike electrical safety — it tests the motor, controller, battery, and charger as a complete integrated system, not just individual components. TÜV is the European equivalent, administered by TÜV Rheinland. Dual certification means the X7 AWD has passed independent safety testing on both continents — something most eBikes under $3,000 cannot claim. The Velotric Nomad 2X ($3,399) carries UL triple certification; the X7 AWD offers comparable safety assurance at $1,000 less.
• Reinforced 6061 Aluminium Alloy Frame (Step-Over, Non-Foldable) — 6061 is the standard alloy for eBike frames — lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and stiff enough to handle the dual motors’ torque without flex. The step-over design places the top tube higher for frame rigidity, which matters under the stresses of 200 Nm AWD torque. Not foldable — this bike trades portability for structural strength.

Everything Included — No Hidden Costs

The X7 AWD ships ride-ready. Your first ride requires zero additional purchases:

• Tesway X7 AWD eBike (your choice of Blue or Black)
• 52V 60Ah integrated lithium battery (pre-installed, removable)
• 58.8V 8A fast charger (~7 hours 0–100%)
• Full-colour LCD display (pre-installed)
• 2× NFC security fob/card (for keyless unlock)
• 99 LM auto-sensing LED headlight + integrated rear LED taillight
• Printed owner’s manual (assembly, display, NFC setup, maintenance)
• Tool kit for final assembly (Allen keys, wrenches, pedal wrench)

What is NOT included (budget for these): Turn signals ($30–$50 aftermarket), fenders (recommended for wet-weather riding), rear rack (if you need cargo capacity), and a quality U-lock or chain lock (the NFC prevents starting the bike, but does not prevent someone from physically wheeling it away).

Dimensions & Fit Guide

Frame Geometry
Overall Length	73.2″ / 186 cm
Wheelbase	51.2″ / 130 cm
Handlebar Height	45.3″ / 115 cm
Seat Height (Min–Max)	33.5″–40″ / 85–102 cm
Standover Height	24.4″ / 62 cm
Chainstay Length	23.6″ / 60 cm
Reach	18.1″ / 46 cm
Wheel Diameter (with tire)	23.2″ / 59 cm
Recommended Rider Height	5’3″–6’5″ / 160–196 cm

Fit notes: The 33.5″ minimum seat height suits riders around 5’3″ who want to flat-foot at stops. The 40″ maximum accommodates riders up to 6’5″ with full leg extension. The 24.4″ standover height provides generous clearance for mounting and dismounting the step-over frame — you are not swinging over a high bar. The 51.2″ wheelbase is long for a 20-inch-wheel bike; combined with the 119 lb mass, this creates a planted, stable ride at speed that resists crosswinds and road irregularities. The trade-off is manoeuvrability — tight U-turns require more room than a lighter, shorter-wheelbase bike.

The 119 lb Reality — Let’s Talk About It

We are not going to pretend 119 lbs is normal. It is not. Most eBikes weigh 55–85 lbs. The X7 AWD weighs as much as some electric scooters. Here is where that weight comes from, and why it exists:

• Battery: 29.8 lbs (13.5 kg). A 3,120 Wh lithium pack is physically large and heavy. The Q20 Pro’s 2,080 Wh pack weighs less, but also delivers 33% less energy.
• Dual motors: ~15 lbs combined. Two hub motors, each with its own stator, magnets, and housing.
• Frame reinforcement: ~8–10 lbs additional. The frame must handle 200 Nm of torque through both axles without flexing.
• 120 mm dual-crown fork: heavier than a bicycle fork. Motorcycle-grade hardware weighs motorcycle-grade amounts.
• 4-piston brakes + 203 mm rotors: heavier than 2-piston + 160 mm. More metal, more stopping power.

The consequence: do not buy this bike if you need to carry it. Up stairs, onto a car rack, through a narrow hallway — at 119 lbs, every one of those scenarios is a two-person job. You need ground-level storage: a garage, a shed, a ground-floor lock-up. If you live in a third-floor walk-up, the Eunorau Meta Folding at 62–68 lbs is a better life decision.

The benefit: once you are riding, the weight disappears. The 200 Nm motors move 119 lbs like it is not there. The low centre of gravity (20-inch fat tires + heavy frame) makes the bike feel stable and planted at speed, not top-heavy. In crosswinds, on gravel, over bumps — heavier bikes track straighter. The weight that is a problem in your hallway becomes an advantage on the trail.

What We’d Change (Honest Take)

Zeus sells this bike because the 3,120 Wh value proposition is unmatched. We also believe in telling you where it trades off:

• Cadence sensor, not torque sensor. This is the biggest compromise. The X7 AWD’s cadence sensor detects whether you are pedalling, not how hard. The motor delivers a fixed power level based on your PAS setting — PAS 1 gives gentle assist, PAS 5 gives maximum assist, regardless of your actual pedal effort. A torque sensor (found on the Fat AWD 3.0 at $2,390 and the Freesky Nova B-360 at $2,373) modulates power proportionally — push harder, get more. For throttle-dominant off-road riding, the cadence sensor is not a dealbreaker. For shared-pathway commuting where you need precise speed control near pedestrians, the difference matters. Torque vs cadence sensor explained →
• 119 lbs is a lifestyle decision, not a spec. See the section above. Ground-level storage is mandatory. Two people for car loading. Plan before you buy.
• No turn signals. At 119 lbs capable of 60 km/h, this bike has the road presence of a moped. Turn signals should be standard equipment, not an aftermarket add-on. Budget $30–$50 for a set. We have told Tesway.
• No fenders included. In Canadian rain, slush, and spring melt, fenders are not optional — they are necessary. The Movin’ Tempo Max includes them at $1,599. At $2,399, they should be in the box.
• No rear rack included. The Tesway X9 AWD at the same price includes a rear rack and fenders. The X7 AWD does not. If cargo capacity matters, factor in the cost of an aftermarket rack.
• The 320 km range claim is aspirational. Tesway rates range under ideal conditions — flat terrain, light rider, PAS 1, warm weather, rear motor only. Canadian reality: 160–260 km in summer mixed riding, 100–180 km in winter. Still exceptional. Just not 320. We always quote the real numbers.
• NFC-only unlock is a double-edged sword. The NFC security is genuinely useful anti-theft technology — no NFC fob, no start. But if you lose both the fob and the spare card, you are locked out of your own bike until you contact Tesway for a replacement. Keep the spare somewhere safe and separate.
• 7-speed, not 8 or 9. The Shimano 7-speed gets the job done, but the gaps between gears are wider than an 8 or 9-speed cassette. Under 200 Nm of motor torque, shift under light pedal pressure — shifting under full load wears the chain and derailleur faster.

Every trade-off above is the cost of putting 3,120 Wh and dual-motor AWD into a $2,399 bike. The battery and motors took priority in the budget, and that is the right call for the riders this bike is built for. If you need a torque sensor and turn signals more than you need 3,120 Wh, the Fat AWD 3.0 ($2,390) is the better match.

Who Buys the X7 AWD?

After selling the Tesway AWD platform across three models, we know exactly who this bike is for — and who should buy something else.

• Canadian winter riders who refuse to stop in November — 3,120 Wh at −20°C still delivers 1,872 Wh of usable energy — more than most bikes have in July. AWD traction handles packed snow, ice, and slush. Fat tires grip where skinny tires slide. This is the bike that makes 12-month riding actually viable in Ottawa, Edmonton, Calgary, and anywhere else that freezes for five months. See our winter eBike guide →
• Rural riders, acreage owners, and property workers — 160–260 km of real-world summer range means you check fences, ride to the back 40, commute to town, and come home without thinking about charging. The 350 lb payload handles rider plus gear plus tools. AWD handles the unpaved roads that connect rural properties to everything else.
• All-day trail explorers and fire road riders — Dual-motor AWD + fat tires + full suspension + 200 Nm = a bike that handles loose gravel, packed dirt, mud, and sand without the rear wheel spinning out on every climb. 3,120 Wh is enough for 6–10 hours of trail riding without needing a midday charge. Dual-motor eBike guide →
• Heavy riders up to 350 lbs who are tired of marginal bikes — Most eBikes cap at 250–300 lbs. The X7 AWD handles 350 lbs on a frame reinforced for dual-motor torque, with 4-piston brakes that actually stop the combined mass safely. The bike’s own 119 lbs provides stability under heavy riders rather than feeling flimsy.
• Riders who want the absolute lowest cost per watt-hour — $2,399 ÷ 3,120 Wh = $0.77/Wh. The Ridetar Q20 Pro: $1.08/Wh. The X9 AWD: $1.67/Wh. The Fat AWD 3.0: $3.32/Wh (single battery). No other dual-motor bike in our catalogue comes within 30% of the X7 AWD’s price-per-Wh ratio.
• Throttle-first riders — If you ride primarily on throttle (not pedal assist), the cadence-vs-torque sensor distinction matters less. The X7 AWD with throttle control is a powerful, responsive machine regardless of sensor type. Pedal assist vs throttle guide →

Who it’s NOT for:

• Shared-pathway commuters who need torque-sensor precision — on NCC pathways, Calgary pathways, or any shared pedestrian route, the cadence sensor’s on/off power delivery is less refined than a torque sensor. The Fat AWD 3.0 ($2,390) offers dual-motor AWD with a torque sensor.
• Apartment dwellers above ground level — 119 lbs. Stairs. No.
• Riders who want a street-legal PAB — at 2,000W+ combined, the X7 AWD exceeds Canada’s 500W federal limit. Not legal on public roads or pathways without registration, insurance, and a driver’s licence. Designed for off-road, private property, and trails. Wattage guide →
• Riders who need fenders, rack, and turn signals out of the box — the Tesway X9 AWD at the same $2,399 includes a rear rack and fenders.

Choose the X7 AWD if maximum battery capacity (3,120 Wh), UL/TÜV dual safety certification, and NFC security are your priorities — and you do not need a rack or fenders in the box. Choose the X9 AWD if you want 26″ wheels for trail stability, 240 Nm peak torque, a rear rack, and fenders included — at the cost of a smaller 1,440 Wh battery. Choose the X5 AWD if you want the same 3,120 Wh battery and NFC security in a step-thru frame for easier mounting and dismounting. Choose the Ridetar Q20 Pro if weight matters (88 lbs vs 119 lbs), turn signals are non-negotiable, and 2,080 Wh is sufficient for your range needs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Tesway X7 AWD street-legal in Canada?

No. At 2,000W+ combined motor power, the X7 AWD exceeds Canada’s federal 500W limit for power-assisted bicycles (PABs). It is designed for off-road use, private property, and trails where motorised vehicles are permitted. On public roads and pathways, only 500W PABs are legal without registration, insurance, and a driver’s licence. Some provinces are evolving their rules, but the federal 500W definition currently governs. Read our full Canadian eBike wattage guide for province-by-province details →

What is the actual real-world range?

Tesway claims up to 320 km under ideal laboratory conditions — flat terrain, light rider, PAS 1, warm weather, rear motor only. Real-world Canadian mixed riding (hills, wind, higher PAS levels, throttle use, variable terrain): 160–260 km in summer. In winter at −10°C with 30–40% cold-weather battery loss: 100–180 km. Even the winter low end (100 km) exceeds what most eBikes deliver in summer. Range varies significantly with PAS level, throttle use, rider weight, terrain, and whether you run rear-only or full AWD. AWD uses roughly 30–40% more energy than rear-only on flat terrain. Full Wh-to-range calculation guide →

Does it have a torque sensor?

No — the X7 AWD uses a cadence sensor. Pedal assist delivers a fixed power level based on your PAS setting (1–5) regardless of how hard you push the pedals. For throttle-dominant and off-road riding, this is perfectly functional. For shared-pathway commuting where proportional speed control matters near pedestrians, a torque sensor is noticeably better. Torque-sensor alternatives at a similar price: Fat AWD 3.0 ($2,390, dual-motor AWD with torque sensor) or Freesky Nova B-360 ($2,373, 1,440 Wh dual-battery with torque sensor). Torque vs cadence sensor guide →

How heavy is it, really?

119 lbs (54 kg) with battery. Approximately 89 lbs (40.5 kg) without. The removable battery weighs 29.8 lbs (13.5 kg). This is the heaviest eBike in our catalogue. You need ground-level storage — a garage, a shed, a ground-floor lock-up. Do not buy this bike if your storage requires stairs. The weight is a direct consequence of the 3,120 Wh battery and dual motors; it is not poor engineering, it is physics. On the road, the weight makes the bike exceptionally stable.

What certifications does it have?

UL 2849 + TÜV Rheinland. UL 2849 is the North American gold standard for eBike electrical system safety — it tests the motor, controller, battery, and charger as a complete integrated system (not just individual components). TÜV is the European equivalent. Dual continental certification at this price point is rare — most eBikes under $3,000 carry no independent safety certification at all. The only bike in our catalogue with stronger certifications is the Velotric Nomad 2X ($3,399) with UL triple certification (2849 + 2271 + 2580).

Can I ride it in Canadian winter?

This is arguably the best winter eBike in our catalogue by raw capacity. At −10°C (30% loss), you have 2,184 Wh. At −20°C (40% loss), you have 1,872 Wh. AWD finds traction on packed snow, ice, and slush. 20×4.0″ Kenda fat tires grip where skinny tires slide. The IPX6 headlight survives direct water and slush spray. Store the battery indoors overnight (critical for lithium longevity in cold). Start every cold-weather ride with a warm battery — even 10 minutes of indoor warming before departure improves first-kilometre performance. Winter eBike guide →

What is the NFC security system?

The bike includes two NFC devices (fob + card). You must tap one to the display console to unlock and start the bike. Without the NFC device, the motor will not engage. This prevents casual theft and joyriding. However, NFC does not physically lock the bike — someone can still wheel it away. Use a quality U-lock or heavy chain through the frame and rear wheel in addition to the NFC. Keep the spare NFC device in a separate location in case you lose the primary.

How does it compare to the Tesway X5 AWD?

Same motor, same battery (3,120 Wh), same NFC security, same brakes, same price ($2,399). The X7 AWD is a step-over frame; the X5 AWD is a step-thru frame. Choose the X7 for frame rigidity and a sportier riding position. Choose the X5 for easier mounting and dismounting — especially with a heavy bike, the step-thru advantage is real.

How do I finance this?

Multiple options at checkout: Klarna Pay-in-4 (0% interest, 4 biweekly payments — ~$600 per payment), Shop Pay Installments (0% interest, no credit check), or PayPlan by RBC for monthly payments over 3–60 months. At $2,399, the X7 AWD’s biweekly Klarna payment is lower than the cost of a monthly transit pass in most Canadian cities. Full financing guide with 3 buyer scenarios →
