Im new to this ebike thing My older brother bought an aventon level 2 and gave me the 101 on torque and cadence sensor differences So my question real for this is Is this torque sensored?
Don't buy this bike!! Their customer service is beyond poor. My son needs a new charger, which I think is ridiculous as it's fairly new. They are impossible to deal with and difficult to even get a hold of! Just FYI... get a rad instead.
I live in St. Louis, too. In April, my best friend was killed in traffic on his Himiway. He shot right out in to cross traffic, was hit square on by a box truck, and flew about fifty feet through the air. He was wearing a full motorcycle helmet, kneepads, and gloves. I don't know that his bike malfunctioned, but a bike mechanic had just tuned up all the non-electric parts. Furthermore, it's an uncharacteristic maneuver on his part to ride recklessly. All I'm saying is please be careful out there. I am a delivery driver and the roads in St. Louis are like the Wild West, as you know. Peace, my brother.
Enjoyed your video good info. I have the step thru I purchased b4 Covid- when it cost only $1,300 I have 999.8 miles on it I had absolutely no problems with my step thru. However It did fall off the back of my SUV bike rack @ 40 mph and the only damage was to my mirror I installed. So it is a well built bike I recommend it to all. Once again thanks for sharing you view on it
Glad you liked the video and thanks for sharing your experience with it. I'm currently looking into getting a bike rack for my suv that's made for e-bikes. Are you thinking about getting a new bike rack and if so or you did already, which one do you use?
Gave a great narrative on the bike. I want to upgrade from my Heybike cityscape that I love to a more off road capable bike. The himiway cruiser is in the running
Not just an e-bike channel, but this is a tech channel and I love covering everything in tech besides just Apple and smartphones. Out of my last 10 videos, only 4 have been electric bikes so I'm still diversified. 👍🏽
Great video. Thanks. I have an Aventon Aventure but want a second eBike for guests to use. The Himiway cruiser looks like a pretty good deal. Down to $1549 now. The Aventure now comes with downgraded components - LTWOO A3 rear derailleur and A3 8-speed shfter (about $11 for the pair on Alibaba), cheaper Zoom hydraulics rather than the already cheap Bengal Ares 3s originally spec'ed on the model, etc. The Himiway actually comes with better components than the $300 more expensive Aventure. Even the Hemiway mechanical discs (Tectros) are pricier than the cheap Zooms on the Aventure.
Felicidades, es un buen ejemplo. 343 sentadillas son unos XXXGIRLS.Uno muchas y un buen ejercicio. Se deja ver que hay muy buenos resultados 😍👍 Saludos desde la Cd.. de world 🌹😉💖 los mortalesl abian apreciado tan hermosa mujer.k
It should have chargers attached to the the tires, (like the tire powered lights of old) to prolong battery life. It's not like the technology doesn't exist, it's actually older than e-bikes...
thanks for the review of this bike. I have been looking into this exact model for awhile now. I have a a carbon fiber Masi road bike, a Cannondale mountain bike and a Burley tandem in my garage, But recent hip replacement surgery and a couple of bad knees have had me re-thinking how I can continue to enjoy the sport I love. Most of my riding is commuting to work which is 30 miles round trip plus some outings on our local rail trail and some weekend back road rides which include some dirt roads here in New England. I am looking for a comfortable bike with good range that is reliable. What are your thoughts on this bike. Thanks again for this fine review.
Weldon video. However, you kind of made it sound like this is a newcomer. His company's been around for quite some time as has this model. I have a 2020 model which was made before they lock down the program in a bit and I've been able to increase the current to the motor as well as the top speed and can now easily reach 30+ miles an hour on throttle or pedal.
What about customer service? Got a chance to buy the step through with the car rack included. 79 miles! $1500. Just concerned about dealing with Himiway someday. Nice review!
None of these offshore eBay companies provide any real good customer support. Local bike shops typically won't work on anything they don't sell so you're pretty much on your own. The good news is especially with this bike they are very generic meaning that all of the various components are readily available on the Internet. All it takes is a little bit of mechanical skill and you can maintain and fix most anything on these bikes.
Very detailed review man! Love that display, display controls, body styling/aesthetics. Nice bright headlight as well for night riding. Never knew much about electric bikes until you started reviewing them. What made you start reviewing these? Other than them being tech, technically lol
Dude, that's why I cover them. I'm happy you're interested in them now. Big reason I'm reviewing these more is because they're fun and get me out of the studio and outside in fresh air and it's a different type of challenge to film vs the standard smartphone review. The smartphone/Apple category on UA-cam is so crowded and the main thing that keeps me going after 15 yrs of creating is mixing it up. I just got a really cool e-bike in. Wait till you see this one. I'll probably post some pics on my social this weekend.
@@SoldierKnowsBest I would imagine the challenge being different with the camera work/angles, general approach, review tactics, tests, etc. Getting out the house and staying active is also a plus for sure. Can’t wait to see the new one you got in! This type of stuff is definitely the way to keep it fresh and companies make these E-Bikes/Vehicles much better these days. That Segway Ninebot Gokart is quite a looker 👀
🚲 Who's thinking about getting their first e-bike? Whether it's this one or another one.
Me 😸 I would like something to run errands with in-town that isn't my road bike because bike thieves are ruthless 💀
@@ManyThingsYT 👍🏽 Yea, I just purchased a couple more bike locks and added more airtags to my more expensive bikes. Can never be too secure lol.
you def got me considering it!! i might hop on the rad runner train
Im looking at the zebra what are your thoughts
Im new to this ebike thing
My older brother bought an aventon level 2 and gave me the 101 on torque and cadence sensor differences
So my question real for this is
Is this torque sensored?
Love my cruiser!!! My ride to work every morning.
GREAT VIDEO

Wow I just bought one New Year’s Eve, I guess I got lucky😂

My condolences for your loss.
Mine has a Thumb-throttle...a fun bike.
An extra battery would be an expensive option.

Hi home boy I’m from St. Louis know living in tenn.
Is this now an official electric bike review channel?
I mean...like...every video seems to be about electric bikes lately.
Not just an e-bike channel, but this is a tech channel and I love covering everything in tech besides just Apple and smartphones. Out of my last 10 videos, only 4 have been electric bikes so I'm still diversified. 👍🏽
Just 4 out of my last 10. Are just my e-bike videos showing in your feed? Check out my channel page to see all the other videos I upload.
So that means I I can have someone behind me ?
How much do you want buddy?
Nice video SKB!
Please check the BBB SIGHT before buying a Himiway.
Oh man thanks for commenting. I was about to buy 2 bikes and now have to reconsider.
You're welcome.
Can you please explain what does mean bbb sight? Thanks
Great review
Great review, lots of detail, also You have very good photographic skills, back grounds etc, keep up the good work 👍😎🇨🇦

Mine came with an led light. Where's yours lol
Great comprehensive review 🙏🏾

looks like a solid bike that got the foundation and smaller details right for a good user experience, which is more important than anything flashy
Facts. 👍🏽
