Bottom line
The ENVO Stax is a commuter e-bike with a 500W hub motor and 460.8Wh seatpost battery. The base build has 700c x 40mm tires; the Stax Pro has 27.5" x 1.95" tires, an adjustable stem, a mono-shock suspension fork, a throttle, a kickstand, and commuter accessories. Only the base build is tested by experts. The sleek, integrated design, low weight, comfort, and smooth ride impress. Some like the seatpost battery; others don't. Complaints are mostly minor, but the limited height range reduces the bike's appeal. However, if it fits, reviewers and owners consider the Stax a good option for city riders.
