I'm confused as to why Heybike didn't wait to just give you guys a final product to test instead of this preproduction version.

[@jeromewaites5364]

Mainly the only difference is going to be the screen it will be built in the handlebar

[@Heybike]

Thank you for your comment! We appreciate your feedback. The preproduction version allows us to gather valuable insights early on. This ensures that the HERO Final Version meets expectations with optimized app features, enhanced software, and refined suspension. Updates to the dashboard and electronic controls further enhance the overall user experience, ensuring you get the best riding experience possible. 😀

They should have not done the carbon fiber frame, it's too heavy with or without it. Could have saved probably $1k in MSRP and only added 3-4lbs in weight. 77lb or 81lb is not a huge difference but if this came in $1k cheaper it's definitely a compelling bike🤷

Just a marketing gimmick.

[@barclayholmes5982]

Regarding the brakes, at 4:51 you can see that the brake pads are not coming into complete contact with the rotors. Grinding down the post mount adaptor about 8 mm should resolve this and greatly improve braking performance. As this is a prototype bike, perhaps they have resolved this on their production model. Thanks for the vid.

[@ElectricBikeReport]

Thanks for watching!

[@MikeBig007]

Will you be testing the new version of the Heybike Hero

[@ElectricBikeReport]

Hopefully so!

[@jeromewaites5364]

What speed app. you use

[@ElectricBikeReport]

We've tried a few different ones across the team. They all seem to work the same - some just have more ads.

[@tonygiancoli9626]

Doing a review on a pre-production model seems like a waste for you (EBR), Hey Bike ("trust us"?) and us, the viewers. None of us know much about this except what's on paper until you get a finished product.

[@ElectricBikeReport]

Typically if we get pree-production models they end up being 95%+ the same. This one could be different than most though for sure.

[@MrMysteriousB]

Not a very useful review. All the caveats about being a pre-production model that the company assures will be fixed raise too many flags on which to base a purchase. I would be interested to see a review of an actual model that ships to the public, particularly with the mid-drive option. I was excited to see the previews earlier this year and almost put $500 down in the kickstarter campaign to reserve a better price. At this point I’m glad I did not.

[@ElectricBikeReport]

We'll speak with them and see if we can work something out for a production mid-drive.

[@vinnyveritas9599]

Okay I get it's a pre-production. It's very heavy, breaking is awful, and it has a carbon fiber frame? What? Yes it looks good, but it's a joke of a bicycle..

[@SoberBangBangVeteran]

Nothing about them colors says HERO.

[@ElectricBikeReport]

Also available in a neon green if that's more heroic :)

[@jimwortham8634]

No price completely useless
