Your videos on the Himiway Step Thru Cruiser are the best I have watched . I just purchased a brand new Himiway Step Thru Cruiser only driven it 10.2 miles since Tues Feb. 7th 2023 . Purchased direct from Himiway for $1399.00 no tax and free shipping to New Jersey . Your videos are better than anyone else’s on KZbin. I’m retired 68 years young . Keep producing videos there great.

I just bought a new Himiway Zebra, I'm really enjoying my first ebike. I researched ebikes for 2 years before I bought the Zebra. I'm so glad I did. This was a huge investment for me. I have no regrets. Every where I ride people gather around asking about my ebike. Including women. My thinking was this ebike is so huge and heavy it might not be the choice for females. You kwon what they say, "if a man can do it so can I" I don't disagree...lol I contacted you today, you seem to enjoy riding your ebike as much as a kid would. So do I! Lets continue to enjoy our Himiway ebikes...lol

With a procurement background, I did my research, and bought the Himiway. It is seemingly well engineered. Note I have only riden 1.5 miles so far. Raining today (alot). Anyway, seems to have both engineering and maintainer design features. The logic in the battery. The Hub. The list goes on and I've only been able to ride one.five miles. Putting it together and charging battery took some time after receiving it about noon. I'm about to put a rain suit on!!!

@freed63433 жыл бұрын
I saw that video. (I also ordered a Blackbird!) I have two Himiways; the Cruiser and the Step Thru Cruiser. I think before I take Kyle's advice and change to a 28" or 29" wheel size, I will check the speed thoroughly with a GPS. The larger wheel size selection will lower the speed displayed on your speedometer. That is why it is adjustable. Keep in mind that your tires do compress somewhat when you ride effectively reducing the wheel diameter back closer to the 26" setting, but I think Kyle has a point when saying the outside diameter of the wheel is more than 26". Checking you MPH/KPH with the GPS in your phone to compare with your speedometer may help you determine exactly what tire size you should lock into the computer/controller. I'm hoping to have my Blackbird by spring or early summer... until then, loving the Himiways.

I went camping 28 Mi away and hauled wood everyday. On the way back and got really wet and it stopped running and I thought it was dead but it started running again and I made it back I think it needs more waterproofing but there is no bike like this the ecotric hammer it's way longer and 1000 watts and goes 25 miles an hour just by setting the controller on the screen.

Good review. Thanks. In answer to your question "Where can I not go?" I've had several ebikes previous to Himiway and have I’ve modifed all of them to fit my needs. I ride mostly on back country dirt roads, old logging roads, and forest trails. I've put 25,000+ miles or so on ebikes over the past 10 years. Maybe 5-10 % of that has been extreme conditions with lots of gravel, rocks, ruts, potholes, mud, and steep curvy narrow paths. This bike is best for predictable conditions. I don't recommend it for rough terrain. At 80 lbs with basic accessories, it's the Harley of e-bikes, a heavy bike that requires pedal assist being on to use the throttle. When you start to peddle and are pointed toward a rock or hole, the bike lunges forward. Obstacles are hard to avoid.
@CitizenCycle9253 жыл бұрын
Thanks Mark, yes you definitely need to tame the pedal assist down when you first get it, its set crazy high and it still lunges or takes off on you when you start pedaling. probably not ideal for more technical riding. if i was going to use a bike for more serious off roading i think i would go for mid drive.

Appreciate your clear video on the PAS settings. I'm very curious about the other *unknown* settings. Unfortunately, the manual is lacking in descriptions of each setting.

I have a CSC 20 inch fat tire ebike--but according to a rep at pedrego--all these bikes with a 750 bafang are within 10% of each other on range--speed--etc.You can cruise at 14 to 17 mph--which is brisk while very lightly peddling--even going through the motions on flat pavement--while sipping the power.On a flat surface--just by me peddling--in which it is no effort I can feel--the bike wattage drops from 500 watts to around 100-200 watts--just by moving the pedals you cut power usage in half.

Electric bike hub motors sometimes burn up from heating up; now one can into the motor settings and limit the maximum electric bike hub motor settings from the default maximum of 18A to something more moderate such as 11A maximum threshold current draw; that should limit any potential damage to one's electric bike hub motor since one has reduced the maximum threshold draw current that can be delivered to the electric bike hub motor; so its not likely to burn up as a result; the other advantage is that the electric bicycle battery will also last hopefully for at least 30% longer mileage also as well; one can also go in and change from the default five pedal assistance levels to the one for nine pedal assistance levels and then at each one of the pedal assistance levels spread out the power levels so they are more granular and specific in nature so as to conserve and save more power so as to extend the potential range of ones electric bicycle by another thirty percent or so; level 1 11% max power level delivered level 2 22%max power level delivered level 3 33%max power level delivered level 4 44%max power level delivered level 5 55%max power level delivered level 6 66%max power level delivered level 7 77%max power level delivered level 8 88%max power level delivered level 9 99%max power level delivered one can for example set level 1 and level 2 so that minimal power is consumed to extend one's potential EV range to the maximum optimal amount.

Friendly tip. Take a look at page 7 of your owner's manual. There you set wheel size with the Ld setting. The actual diameter of a 26 x 4" tire varies but is generally between 29 and 30." The max setting is 28. Try using a GPS speedo as I doubt the cruiser's display is giving you anything close to the actual speed.

I have mine set on 26 at least the last time I checked. When I go past the police set up speed displays they set up an some roads, my display and the police’s mph reading are pretty much the same

Do they make this bike with a thumb throttle? I would need to remove it for riding on state game lands in Pa once these bikes are approved in class I. Also you can go over 750watt motor.

It comes with a twist throttle on half the right grip.

Totally unrelated, I searched your Ridewithcitizen.com website and bought the Victagen light 2400 Lumens thru the AMZ affiliate dealio. Bikeroo seat and mirrors, bought through you and installed. The light for price and rating etc. I tried to find something better in the price range, nothing competes. I need a bike stand (station) to work on the bikes. Flip over old school put air in my hydro lines. But I did fix a rear flat and re-install with your help hahaha. I need air-pump and air gauge......................are these items you handle and or review? Wish the Himi video was done back in April. We bought two Canadian bikes that had a recall on the brakes. The company did not contact us, I stumbled on a users group................Ride ON!

This might be a stupid question but how do I attach my kick stand? I have 2 bolts but no nuts! Is the support to be nuts holding the stand on????

Not a dumb question at all it took me a couple minutes to figure it out too. The kickstand goes in the front of the mounting plate and the screws thread into the mounting plate on the frame
