Electric bikes are becoming increasingly popular among commuters and off-road enthusiasts. Of the various options available, MEELOD XT600DL and TENWAYS AGO X stand out as the best off road ebike in offering contrasting strengths. Strengths: The first one is designed to be high-speed and aggressive on off-road, whereas the second one is aimed at balance, comfort, and intelligent urban riding with some trail use.
Power and Motor Setup
MEELOD XT600DL
The MEELOD XT600DL is a serious off-road beast. It comes with two motors, one with a rating of 750 watts, and the maximum speed of each is 1200 watts. This is equivalent to significant acceleration and ascending power, even up inclines or difficult trails. The total torque is 180 Newton-meters, which provides it with significant pushing capacity.
TENWAYS AGO X
The TENWAYS AGO X features a 250-watt Bafang M410 mid-drive motor and 80 Newton-meters of torque. While this is less than half of the MEELOD’s torque, the mid-drive setup provides smoother and more consistent pedaling assistance. It handles moderate grades nicely and is ideal for riders who prefer quiet, smooth, and natural riding experiences.
Speed and Range
MEELOD XT600DL
The XT600DL will top out at between 35 and 40 miles per hour, depending on the weight of the rider and the terrain. It has a throttle-only mode and various class settings, among them an off-road mode that releases full power and speed. Its battery has 1300 watt-hours capacity and has a range of 40 to 100 miles, with approximately 40 miles available in throttle-only mode. The battery will charge in approximately 8 hours.
TENWAYS AGO X
The AGO X has a maximum speed of 25 kilometers per hour or approximately 15.5 miles per hour. This is the speed limit of assisted e-bikes in most areas. It has no throttle and depends only on pedal assistance. The 504-watt-hour battery can travel as far as 100 kilometers (62 miles), depending on the conditions of the rider. The reason is that charging time is faster due to its smaller battery capacity.
Frame, Suspension, and Tire
MEELOD XT600DL
XT600DL is constructed using 6061 aluminum, a strong, lightweight frame. It has full suspension, an adjustable rear shock, and a hydraulic lockable front fork. This arrangement cushions the hits and maintains the ride stable even on slippery or rocky terrain. The bicycle also has wide 26 × 4.0-inch anti-puncture fat tires that make it suitable for traffic on snow, sand, mud, and gravel.
TENWAYS AGO X
The AGO X is made of 6061 aluminum but with a better, more urban-oriented design. The AGO X front suspension is fitted with an SR SUNTOUR lockout fork to enable it to smooth potholed roads and light trails. The tires are 29 inches and can withstand punctures, making them suitable for riding on the streets and dirt trails. AGO X can work with many types of terrain, but has not been designed to take the rough off-road riding of the XT600DL.
Brakes, Drivetrain, and Controls
Both motorcycles utilize hydraulic disc brakes, which are efficient in bringing the vehicle to a halt under any circumstances. The XT600DL comes with a 7-speed Shimano gearing system that offers easy but good shifting under various terrains. The AGO X has an upper hand on a Shimano 10-speed drive that is more versatile and flexible to change gears, even during a hill climb.
MEELOD XT600DL
The MEELOD’s control system includes a large 3.5-inch waterproof LCD screen. It displays speed, battery level, mode, and more. It also supports Bluetooth navigation and offers good visibility in bright sunlight or at night.
TENWAYS AGO X
The AGO X comes with a bright color TFT LCD display and supports smartphone connection through the TENWAYS app. Riders can track their rides, navigate, and access support directly from the bike’s display.
Weight, Capacity, and Build Quality
MEELOD XT600DL
The MEELOD XT600DL is a heavy-duty bike with a high weight capacity of up to 450 pounds. It is made for tough environments and larger riders or those who carry cargo. The bike weighs more but makes up for it with its strong motor and thick tires.
TENWAYS AGO X
The TENWAYS AGO X is much lighter, with a net weight of 27 kilograms and a maximum load capacity of 150 kilograms. It’s easier to lift or store and better suited for everyday city use. The overall finish, with hidden cables and clean welds, gives the AGO X a more polished look compared to the bulkier MEELOD.
Conclusion
The MEELOD XT600DL and TENWAYS AGO X are both highly constructed electric bikes, but each is made for quite different riders. XT600DL is best suited to those off-road riders who require power, speed, and durability. It has large tires, suspension, two motors, and a long battery range for serious outdoor activity. Instead, the AGO X is a comfortable and well-balanced bike to use in everyday life. It has a mid-drive motor, a thin frame, and smart technology that fits commuters in search of a clean, silent, and effective ride on asphalt and light trails. The choice between them is based upon the type of riding intended. For bumpy trails and high speed, the XT600DL is a good bet. For comfort, fashion, and everyday use, the AGO X is hands down the winner.
