Thank you, I will have my first test on my way to work tomorrow. Just because it will go 31 mph... I don't plan on abusing it. I've noticed if you are on the throttle going downhill, you can actually go faster releasing the throttle and pedaling, set at 22 mph, when on throttle... the motor actually acts like a brake. Thanks again :)
That’s because it’s set to 22 mph so the motor is trying to throttle down the speed to 22 change it to the 90 and it won’t try to throttle back until you go over 90. I also agree if you can get into the controller program you can make these go way faster than 30
I was able to do this with my bike but I think they updated the software or something because it won't let me go past 45. They must have figured out people were doing this or something
Can you help me? I only want to set the Himiway Cruiser handgas as a start -up aid without driving full throttle? So e.g. on 5 miles when I open the hand gas fully.

Hi! It will use the battery up faster, if you use the higher speeds constantly. But, I haven’t noticed it being any harder on the motor. I’ve had mine three years this month and it’s still going strong! Enjoy!
@@ncaverync Ok. I’ll try it today. I’m pushing 400 miles on mine. I average around 30 miles on a full charge, but I weigh 250, down from 315 last year. 👍
@@ncaverync Ok. I thought I had the older model. Mine wouldn’t go past 45. But I’m thrilled. It still worked! I took it for a run this morning. My top speed was 22. Now it’s 28, so I’m happy with gaining another 6 mph! Which is enough speed for me on an Ebike! 👍
They have changed it so you can only max out at 40 you can't put it up to 90 anymore. Mine was said it's 36 I put it up the 40 which is the max setting.

I live in California and just got my Escape. I went to settings and max out the speed it only goes to 45 max instead of the 90. My max speed at full throttle is 25mph, tire pressure 25 psi. Maybe the bike ship to CA are more regulated.

I’m not sure Ben. I posted this video back when I first got my 2020 Cruiser model in the US. I don’t think it works on the newer US Cruiser models made since then.
Hi - I have a new bike, just got it, the 2021 version. The "LS" only goes up to 45, not 90 like the old model, does this mean it wont go as fast as the older model? Can only get it to go up to 21mph, where people with the older model say it can go up to 31mph.
Hey Joe, I’m really not sure. Others are reporting the new bikes top out at “45” also. I don’t know how this affects the top speed limit now. Mine is still going strong at over 2200 miles!
Hey so I Just tried that exact process and it didn’t let me go past 40. You went all the way to 90 and it only let me go till 40, then when I locked in the setting it went to like 26, definitely faster then 22mph which was what I was maxing out on, but just was wondering does it go any faster then 26? Why did it not allow me to go to 90 like you. Thank you for everything
Hey Jared, I got my bike in June 2020…I have heard that they’ve made some changes on the newest bikes, possibly limiting them to the “40” setting. You’ll still enjoy it going to 26 (and probably faster downhill). You’re going to love the bike. Still riding mine almost every day!

I ordered two hemingway cruiser I think I will do a speed test with all 3 bikes. My fastest bike is rize rx pro 37 mph .Happy New Year.
Every other video I've seen stops at 40. Are they just simply not pressing the button any more than that because they don't want to get into trouble? I'm picking mine up in 2 weeks, so this will be one of the first things I do.
hey I dunno if you're still wondering about this, but yeah the newer models are down to 45 now. Upgrading the display will change that, providing you get the right one.
You can recover the factory default settings by pressing and holding the “-” (“minus”) and “i” buttons for 2 seconds. This will show the “dEF-n” screen (“default-no”). Press the “+” button to change it to “dEF-y”, then press the “i” button to make the change. You can then press your power button to shut the controller off. You should be back at the factory defaults when you power back up!
@@donwiley4081 Yes, but there's a new code. I believe Himiway has it on their website, but it voids your warranty because it's not legal. Still, though. You paid for the 750 watt motor, so you should at least get commute speeds. 25 don't cut it for 2 grand...

Posibly the controller is limiting the speed. Maybe it is possible to program the controller. From the power I think it can go way faster than 30mph.
That’s because it’s set to 22 mph so the motor is trying to throttle down the speed to 22 change it to the 90 and it won’t try to throttle back until you go over 90. I also agree if you can get into the controller program you can make these go way faster than 30

Dear Dean, my cruiser setting LS doesn’t go past 40. Is there a way around that?
Hey Glen, My Cruiser is the 2020 model. They may have changed the newer ones, unfortunately! (I’ve been told this by others.)
They have changed it so you can only max out at 40 you can't put it up to 90 anymore. Mine was said it's 36 I put it up the 40 which is the max setting.

what is the max that you hit at 40?
I live in California and just got my Escape. I went to settings and max out the speed it only goes to 45 max instead of the 90.
My max speed at full throttle is 25mph, tire pressure 25 psi. Maybe the bike ship to CA are more regulated.
Manifest, Unfortunately, I think all the newer Himiways are being more strictly regulated. I’m hearing all the newer ones have the same limitations that you’re encountering. You’ll still love the bike!
They limited top speed on newer 2021 firmware from burning out hubs and controllers.

Just got my bike the LS only goes up to 40 and will only go 28 mph max. I'm 115 pounds. So, any ideas
Laura, They may be placing limits on the newer bikes…I’m not sure. But that’s what I’m hearing from others. :(
what will be the full range of batterty if you go full throttle of 31mph no pedaling on flat road?
Too many variables to say. Depends on your weight, hills, etc. Full throttle at 100% would run the battery down pretty quickly though.
Thank you, but mine, LS = 25, I can't put a value higher than 25.
All new himiways in the last year or two are locked. Even with an aftermarket screen

@@ncaverync same here, it definitely drains the battery much much faster, if I set it back to 22mph the battery will go back to lasting a long time?
Jared, Probably….but it all depends on what pedal assist levels you use. The higher, the quicker the battery will discharge, of course.
i got mine yesterday, and I have the same problem, I think the company started limiting them at 40. I’d like to find an override to this limitation

Absolutely! This bike is bigger than it looks.

It comes with both fenders and the rear rack!
After changing speed limiter what is the actual top speed afterwards?
Top speed will probably be between 30-31 MPH after these adjustments.
I own 2 of these ‘21 models. They are awesome!
Is the kickstand adjustable, I just got mine and it leans over quite a bit.
Yes! Look closely....I think there are two adjustable screws to loosen, lengthen it, and then tighten them back.

Mine was the early 2020 model. They may have made some changes with the newer models. 😢
Is that 30mph on throttle only?
You may get close to that on the highest pedal assist level, but you won’t be able to pedal that fast! So, you might as well just use the throttle!
Will the bike do 30 on throttle only? No pedaling. Like if I were to just use only throttle, what would the top speed be
You could definitely do close to 30 MPH (depending on hills, your weight, etc ...there are a lot of variables involved) on throttle only, no pedaling.
