    E-Bike Question of the Day ⚡🚴 Do you prefer full suspension e-bike over hardtails or rigid designs? Let us know in the comments below 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼

    • @brettblumenstein1405

      I rode and raced hardtails for years, having been what felt like the last person in the world to finally switch over to a full suspension. There is no comparison. Full suspension is superior.
      Plus if you find yourself in a spot where you wouldn't want squish, lock it out.

      I prefer a hard tail or rigid if I am providing the power, but on an ebike, I already know my next one will be full suspension and have hydraulic brakes. My current bike is a folder rolling on 20 inch fat tires and will go 32 mph and the hardtail design really makes the rear tire buck over any uneven pavement. A decent rear suspension would make it perfect.

    I'd like this ebike with a 1000 watt motor. Ariel rider just released a cruiser hardball far bike with a 52v 20ah battery and 1k watt motor. It's only a matter of time they release a full suspension model that mirrors this bike....Himiway needs to recognize this.

    I wanted a full suspension bike. I will be riding mainly field roads and old dirt rds. Almost ordered an other brand but heard himiway was about two add a f/s bike to their lineup. So I waited to see. Glad I did because of price. Order mine on Black Friday. Reviews by himiway owners are good. Reviews on support is bad. I have talk to support a couple of times and they can get rude real fast. Thanks for doing the review.

    In my experience with the Himiway you can reprogram the PAS speed and how many levels 0-3. 0-5, or 0-9 as well as how hard it pulls 1 being the most pull 4 being the least amount of pull. You can even program at what voltage the bars correspond with, The factory programming for the first drop in battery bars is at 48 volts, I bumped mine to 50 volts to make the bars drop more symmetrical, Great bikes! I agree the grips need to be changed out. Great video Sir!

      As far as Canadian Ebike laws go, I did lots of research into all the laws before dropping 3k on a bike. Straight from the Ontario website it says ebikes can basically go anywhere a regular bike is permitted unless they have specific local bylaws saying ebikes are not allowed. So in Burlington where I'm from we're allowed riding bikes on the sidewalk but in most of Ontario you would have to ride your bike on the road.
      It then goes on to specify what is considered an ebike: working operational pedals, speed limited to 32k/hr, must wear a helmet, ect ect.
      I can send you the link to the Ontario website that shows the ebike laws in bullet points, only 1-2 pages. Then I would recommend looking up the Toronto bylaws regarding ebikes. I imagine being in the city they might have a couple more restrictions.

    Unfortunately I canceled my order for the Himiway Cobra. I ordered the bike on June 7th and the website said the bike would ship in July. After reaching out to them I was told the bike wouldn't ship until September. Out of frustration I canceled my order. Going with a Canadian company Instead. The Volt Yukon core, fat tire, mid drive, upgraded Shimano rapid fire shifter, more torque, similar battery power, 1 torque and 2 speed sensors, comes with 4" fat tires but supports up to 4.8 . Fat tire bikes are naturally a smoother ride and you can always add a suspension seat post for more suspension. I'll give up the soft tail for an upgraded mid drive motor anyday. Had himiway took initiative and informed me the bike would take longer to ship I'd probably still stick with them.. unfortunately the situation made me question the company's customer service (which many people have had issues with)

    When discussing the PAS levels, he failed to mention that is fully adjustable on old Hemingways. You cannot only change from 0 to 5 but the 0 to 7 and 0 to 9 levels. Along with that you can adjust the percentage of power assigned to each level.

      @@ElectricBikeReport Yes, I bought it from a dealer stateside and actually ended up trading it straight across for another brand after I got frustrated with Hemiway's requirement that you replace the throttle, did not work, then the brakes because it could be the sensor, then it would have been the control module, before finally replacing the motor which is what I suspect was the actual problem all along. I do wish I would had better luck with the bike because it was great until it wasn't. I belonged to a Himiway facebook page and I was not the only one having problems. Reviews are great, but real world long term tests would be better.

I am looking at the Adventon Adventure .2 and the Himiway Cobra. Between the two, which would you recommend for a guy of my frame size? Based on this video, it looks like the Himiway is the more suitable, larger frame for me. Also, have you rode the Adventon.2 large frame bike for persons up to 6-4? Also, if you have any better suggestions, I would be grateful for your input. Thank you in advance.

    It looks beautiful, there’s just this elephant in the room with the construction of the rear suspension. How will it work after a year or two. Is Himiway able to help service wise, if things get worse. I’m not that sure about this point. Himiway is known for a not that good service experience.
    For customers who just want the ride a bit smoother, it might be the better way, to say no to the rear suspension and buying something like a parallelogram suspension seatpost. If these got bad, just replace it. If the construction of the rear suspension gets worn out, the bike might end as a total damage. Just saying. I love what Himiway is doing, but Ithink I would go with the Zebra to be safe.

    I’m 68YO with extensive mountain bike experience, but no eBike. I am a fly-fisherman and my mission for an eBike is to use as a shuttle vehicle at river take-out to travel back up-river to get my truck and trailer then go back down to retrieve my drift boat. I would also use the bike to travel up and down river to fish so a back rack is important to put gear on. It’s use would be on not very technical single-track, gravel and highway. Sometimes I am in waders so minimal pedaling but will also use for a town ride from my RV and want exercise. Because the bike will be left all day at my take-out it is inevitable that some thief will eventually steal it even though I’d NY lock it. Consequently, I don’t want to have a huge amount of money in it. My need is a truck, rather than a sports car. Is this the bike for my mission? Thoughts?

    Great review, question how was bike clean up after the ride? I noticed some mud on the frame where the battery, I’m concerned about excessive debris in the battery. Also how bad was the dirt/mud from the rear tire? Do you think fenders would be a positive addition or more of a hindrance? Also what did you use to transport the bike, you mentioned that is was longer then other similar bikes. Thanks again.

    • @ElectricBikeReport
      @ElectricBikeReport  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      With how the battery tucks into the frame it's not a huge concern on the debris front, but do pop it out if the outside is caked in mud or dirt.
      For lots of off-roading we personally just anticipate getting dirty and typically prefer no fenders.

    After I tried the support they wanted a video from me with the description of the problem,
    what I had done. The driving assistance via hand throttle worked perfectly,
    what I showed in the video.
    And what email came back from China ??? a video how I can speed up the hand throttle illegally,
    with the statement that they helped me with it ?????????
    I think the Himiway Service in China can't even watch video properly.
    I've only had the bike 3 weeks and already have a neck on Himiway.
    I hope for you that you never have to use the service, because the support in Germany gives the problem
    also only to China, because nothing else comes from there either.

    Have fun with your Himiway
    and hopefully never a warranty case.

    I've been looking for an ebike for commuting that I can also load onto my bike rack and take out trail riding. I've been keeping my eye on soft tail bikes for the comfort and verstility and was really curious about this Himiway model but I didn't quite have the reference to see just how big this bike is until watching this video. I'm just shy of 5'-10" and will definitely be riding in the city more than actually off road. The Cobra is already at the top end of my budget. If not this one, what soft tail bike would you recommend for someone my size that will expect to use it for city riding?

      You can also look into the Himiway Zebra which is a cheaper option. We'll have the video for that one up this week. What bike rack do you have? These are all heavy bikes so make sure you keep your tray's weight rating in mind.

    Do not buy any Himiway products. THEY DO NOT STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT. First of all, I couldn’t find a repair shop that would be willing to do warranty work because “ Himiway doesn’t pay their bills” I finally found a dealer that would work on my Cruiser, but wouldn’t wait for reimbursement from Himiway because they don’t pay. After speaking with Himiway they told me to go ahead and pay for the repairs. I did which was around 150 bucks. Here I am months later and still no refund. Email after email and excuse after excuse. Don’t do business with Himiway, I’m in Cali.

    I love this bike, but I wish you guys wouldn't drive so fast out there in the natural world. Disturbing the peace while enjoying none of it should be kept to paved roads. Hopefully all e-bikes will be limited by law to a max of 8mph in Ntl Forests. Tearing through natural areas is a desecration of nature.

    why can't engineers get the freaking battery right? it should sit in the frame, loading it in from the top, not "hang" from the bottom of the frame. It's called GRAVITY, and has caused lots of issues for owners if the frail clip fails to hold battery in place.
