I love my Himiway and use it daily to commute to work. Today I decided to try the Airline Trail in CT and it was fantastic! Did a 20 mile ride through the woods, brooks and streams, ponds, and saw numerous wildlife. I plan to tour all the castles and waterfalls in CT. One day I also hope to do the Colchester Causeway Trail in Vermont.

San Antonio, Texas, is home to five missions from the 1700’s, now recognized by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site. My 24 mile, one way ride to Mission Espada includes biking on the mission reach of the famous San Antonio river. Himi always attracts attention and is as good to conversation starters as a dog may be. Great way to make friends while enjoying some of the most beautiful settings in the world, while traveling on a bike that often incited jealousy.

So what do you do when your vehicle conks out 12 miles outside of Gunnison Co on your way to Crested Butte CO on Saturday the 4th? WELL... You start it up and go 20 mph on the shoulder on a 65 mph highway and drop it off at a repair shop. It's Saturday on Labor Day Weekend so it doesn't open until Tuesday the 7th. SO... - went to Walmart - bought a duffle bag and back pack and bungee cords - took out clothes for two days. THEN... Get THIS!! HA - we took off the EBikes from the SUV - and rode 31 miles to Mt Crested Butte on a major highway uphill into the wind. I had a 20 lb backpack on and a 20 lb duffle bag plus the 72 lb ebike. We could not really use the ebike power because the battery was dying. But there was no way to bike the 31 miles w/o the help of the E Bike
HA - It was tough but we did it and had two great days in Crested Butte. But now rode 31 miles back to Gunnison and staying in a hotel. I'll be at the repair shop at 7:30 am tomorrow. Man - I'm at the mercy of the mechanic because we are 4 hours from home. Life is a journey - we are blessed

This is my last ride during the 1st year since I bought my bike on 02/20/21. Rode 1300 miles. 39.6 mph for my fastest speed. 42.5 miles for my longest ride that took 3 hour and 45 minutes. I can get 50 mile on a charge and got 85.2 miles for the most on a charge, took 5 rides to do it. I've never had a flat tire. After 1000 miles my bike's controller went out, replaced it free under warranty and has been working great since. I LOVE MY BIKE!

Beautiful spring day. Live a few blocks from I80 but decided to explore back-roads on my Himiway cruiser. Found 2 lane roads through farming country as well as hill country on back-road to Napa valley. Stopped for a rest and snapped this picture. Picture doesn't capture the tranquility and sense of spring in the air. Nonetheless, it helped me relearn that a little bit of paradise is only a bike ride away and can truly only be fully appreciated while riding your bike.

I was riding my himi like every other day. This time I decide to ride through a golf course. Everything seem normal but the air was very very cold. So I had to pull over on a trail, right by this little pond I did not see. I pull over to put my gloves on and alot of ducks came from almost nowhere. They start to quack and walk closer to me. I think wow very cute. Then more came and the quaking got louder and before I know more start to fly and try to land on me. I quickly got my gloves on and took off on my himi with around 100 ducks chasing me lol! Other people saw and started to laugh. I finally got fast enough and ride farther from the ducks. Eventually the ducks got tired and flew away. Himiway saved my life that day LOL!

We put our Himiway e-bikes to a true mounting biking test and they pulled through with flying colors!
A group of 11 of us rode our e-bikes 20 miles up and around the back-ridge mountain of Big Bear Lake, behind Snow Summit Resort. We started in town and began our trek up the off-service road 2N10, making the rocky climb to an elevation of 8173 feet. We put the bike to the test of making the 1325 foot incline and it did so without a hitch. Once we got there, the views up top of both Big Bear Lake and the San Bernardino Inland Empire valley below were spectacular.
However, what goes up, must come down. We came down the mountain on a single-track trail testing the maneuverability and balance of the fat tire as we wound our way down through the San Bernardino National Forest. An adventure it was, with the Himiways handling perfectly, and we can’t wait to do it again.

My husband and I love to hop on the nearby trails or load our Himiways to see new places. We took the bikes to Arkansas this past fall and had a fantastic time checking out the vast variety of bike trails in the Bentonville/Bella Vista area.

Recently as prices have gone sky high for gas I've decided that my bike is now my pickup truck replacement. I'm able to drive all over town picking up my food and groceries and make it to work on time. It's quite fun to write this thing around and enjoy the open road. I've had my bike for almost a year and put over 1,800 mi on it. And I've taken it many more places than my truck has ever gone. Is the beast my new pickup truck? Only Time Will tell.

My biggest passion in life is getting outdoors. My two main avenues to do so are hiking & bike riding.
As age & injuries take their toll, it's become apparent that we all, at times, need a little assistance. That's where my Himiway journey began.
I had initially considered e-biking towards the fall of 2020. In 2020, I put 1,700 miles, per Strava, on my Specialized bike & had a great time doing so. There were, though, several instances where it was more than a pain to get back home, either running out of water or energy... or both.
Over the winter of '20-'21, the e-bike search went on the back-burner. Fast-forward to April, 2021, and I was glamping (motorhome) with my wife & friends when we took out a Polaris Razor. It was a blast, and, of course, I wanted one.
Once I started researching ATVs, though, I realized a few things.
1. They were EXPENSIVE... like $25k & up for a side-by-side of quality.
2. I would only be able to use it when glamping, so it would site idle most of the time.
3. I needed a way to tow it & find room to store it.
That's when e-bikes re-entered my mind. I could get 2 Himiways (powerful motor, good speed & long-lasting battery, enabling me to go further) for $3,100 or so? I could save well over $20k & use it a lot more while still getting exercise? Um... yes, please!
So, we ordered our Himiway bikes (the original for me, the step-through for my wife) in May & received them just after July 4. Hey, the delays in production & shopping affected (and still do) everyone for tons of different products.
Once we received our bikes, we put them together (my son & I) right away, charged the batteries and then I took mine for a ride the next day around Lake Natoma. It was a hot day, but, with the added speed, the cooling sensation was awesome. I was still able to put a workout in (have become quite adept since at knowing when & how to work hard or not) without worrying about "dying on the vine," so to speak.
Since last July, and in spite of missing 3 months due to a hernia & 1 month due to illness (not Covid, that I know of), I've still managed to put over 1,700 miles on my Himiway.
To say I love my Himiway e-bike is an understatement. With gas prices being what they are now, too, I use it almost exclusively around town, so it's become quite the little $$$ saver, too. I'm always encouraging friends and family to look into these as well. For the cost, for the gas savings, for the peace of mind of being able to go further & more places, my Himiway is one of the best purchases that I can recall.

I received my Himiway Escape last Fall. I have a local Rail Trail where I like to ride my bikes and go for a run. I rode the Escape to the Rail Trail and when I arrived at the turnaround point, I saw someone riding the exact same Himiway Escape. We stopped and chatted, and the owner told me he just received his Escape, and this was also his first ride! We exchanged cell numbers and have done 3 rides together. I have a new eBike and a new friend as well.

I received my Himiway Cruiser on a mild fall day back in 2020. I waited about one month to receive it but the wait was well worth it. As soon as the UPS driver unloaded the package to my driveway, I immediately began assembling my new toy. in about an hour I was ready to find out what all the hype I had been reading was all about. I started out nice and slow in order to get a feel for how all of the components worked and to get good understanding and feel of the pedal assist. After about 5 minutes I felt totally comfortable with the bike and was ready for my first real ride. Wow is the first word that comes to mind. I rode for a good hour in all the different peddle assist levels, different speeds, up and down hills, on and off road, and I cant explain just how much fun that first ride was. Its like waking up Christmas morning as a child and finding that shiny new bicycle under the tree. You know that magical feeling. Since that first ride I still look forward to getting on my Cruiser every day and still enjoy it just as much. In the last 16 months I have ridden 2980 miles through rain and snow and everything in between and I still have not had one single problem with my Himiway. And its not only fun but the exercise I get is fantastic. In the first year of riding I lost a total of 42 pounds. Its been a great investment for me both physically and mentally. Anyways I hope you enjoy your Himiway as much as I have enjoyed mine.

A warm NW Indiana February day is a great day for a 30 mile ride with my husband.

We live in MN, but we drove with our himiway bikes to AZ for a month and rode our e-bikes every day off road in the AZ desert. Thrilling!!

Not so amazing quick story of breaking 800 miles on my Himiway bike today with good friends! (Trying to catch them having 900 and 1,100 miles apiece)… the saga continues!
CHRISTOPHER ROTH
Love my himiway. I purchased the step through so that I can ride it around and also to use it for hunting and fishing. I have customized it to my liking. It rides ni e and handles off road even better.
Melissa bender
To all those who laughed at me when I bought may himiway for hunting...i go farther pack lighter and quietly get in the perfect places.. Whooot Whooot.

I love my Himiway Cruiser. Every day the ride is effortless and relaxing as I cruise through the neighborhood, trails, and off road. Sometimes it is hard to comple a ride because so many people stop me to ask about the bike. They all agree that the bike is very well built and attractive. I can't help but add that the bike is a joy to ride and explain to them the different modes that it allows the rider to enjoy.
I have 1400 miles on the bike since mid September of 2021, and have not had any issues with the bike. Since I've been riding the bike several people have stated that they will order one because they see me enjoying my time on the bike every day.
That's my story, and I encourage people to purchase one for themselves, and ride the Himiway!

At first I was quite hesitant about buying an electric bike from a foreign country mostly in regards to customer service and the language barrier.Before making my decision I continued to watch all the YouTube videos comparing all the electric bikes for almost a year before covid. Once our government decided to give us the $1,400 stimulus I knew that it was time should make my decision.Since I am on disability for bulging discs and sciatica , neuropathy in my feet and arthritis in my hips I must make the best decision possible because every nickel and dime counts when you're on disability. At the time I purchased my Himiway cruiser they were going for $1499.00 and the other comparable e-bikes I liked were the Rad Rover which were I believe 15 or 1699, the adventon which was close to $2000 the cyrushers around $2,150 - 4195 and the juiced ripcurrent which was $2500, more than I wanted to spend on my 1st e-bike. The cruiser came bundled with fenders, lights and a rear rack , it also had great range(aprox 30) without pedaling and a top speed of 28 mph with adjustable pedal assist none of the others came with and for $1499.00 it just seemed the best buy for my money.Well it's been a year now since I purchased my cruiser I've got over 3,000 miles on it and I'm very pleased with the performance and surprisingly pleased with customer service.My first dealing with customer service I notified them that the front forks that were supposed to lock out did not and they offered me a brand new replacement for shipping and handling which was $30 so I asked him if I could use my bonus points that I had accumulated buying the bike towards the shipping and handling they said yes so it didn't cost me anything to get the forks ships to me , the second issue that I had the lower bottom bracket was clicking and so after contacting customer service they shipped me one out like had to been that day because I received it within 7 days. My next issue was the brake handle sensor was shutting the bike down and so every time I got ready to take off it would shut down I couldn't figure out what was wrong with it until I unplug the brake sensor and it started working so I contacted customer service about that and just like with the bottom bracket they shipped it out quickly and I got it within 2 weeks. My last issue was the motor cable that comes out of the rear axle after so many miles, I guess the derailleur had been hitting against the motor cable and stripped some of the wires on that harness until the motor began cutting in and out. Well I contacted customer service and at first I got a letter back that said that they were not going to replace it even though it was under warranty because of irresponsible riding so I wrote them back and stated that if I had been riding irresponsibly then I would not have gotten 3,000 miles on the bike before that problem occurred . So the next letter back from them I received they stated send us $99 for a hold and will be sending you a motor, which again I was very surprised by the amount of time it took to get the motor I don't think it was two weeks and I received the motor so I repaired the bike sent them back the old motor the very next day they received it they sent me back my $99 so all in all I'm very pleased with the service that I have gotten from Himingway , and as far as the language barrier that I thought I would have a problem with there has not been none. All in all, if I had to make my decision again I would still buy the himiway cruiser no doubt. I am so glad I bought this bike instead of buying a used car, I have far less expenses and it allows me to save my money for more important things.

My wife loves to exercise but the hills and steep roads near our home made it too difficult for her on her regular bike. I got her a Himiway Cruiser and now it’s no problem! She can ride everywhere with no worries about pushing the bike up hill. Thanks Himiway! We love it.

Always kayaked on chambers lake, always wondering about the otherside of the lake how to get to it. Took the Cruiser and found the back trails.
Love this bike all the neighbors want one now.

I took a job during COVID, living in Oregon but working East Cost time. At 2:00 PM every afternoon I took a bike ride, and lost 25lbs. When we relocated to Rhode Island, the bike did not make it - literally worn-out. Once we settled-in, we ordered two Himiway bikes. Since June 2021, I have logged just under 2,800 miles, taking a 12 -20 miles ride every morning, weather permitting.
I have since lost an additional 30 lbs! In the best shape of my life. A key aspect of an ebike is knowing that you can get back up any hill you go down at least so far! I have ready access to a bike trail (Washington Secondary Trail) and routinely tell joggers and walkers that it is more fun on an ebike!
I plan on riding for many years to come, thanks to Himiway!

We are campers with Himiways. We have a great path near our home that is a 34 mile round trip. This path takes us from our home to Riverbend Park in Jupiter. However, our favorite is Santos Trail in Ocala. I was told different mileage to the end. Our first trip we turned around at 10 miles because I thought it was over 20 miles to the end. Turns out I was wrong. As you can see in the pictures it's 16 miles so 32 round trip. This trail takes you over the Land Bridge which was made so the animals can safely cross I-75. This is a portion that's paved of the Florida Trail. We had not seen any deer so my husband asked a park ranger. She said when all the construction was done on the trail the deer went to the west of I-75 and never returned. Sure enough, late in the afternoon we found a mama with her baby eating grass along the path.

We own a Himiway Cruiser and a Cruiser step through version fat tire bike. We have rode over 700 miles so far in every kind of terrain across Southeast America. We have not found a hill yet that we cannot climb due to the awesome power of this bike. We highly recommend Himiway bikes for anyone and everyone. E-bikes have reminded us how much fun it is to ride bikes again and it is a very affordable alternative to other methods of transportation. These bikes will simply put a smile on your face.

I live in a small rural town on the western slope of Colorado. From my home I have access to hundreds of miles of trails in the White River National Forest. Last weekend I decided to snap a pic to share some of the views I have become accustom too while riding my new Cobra Pro.

Here are some photos of my AWESOME Himiway fat tire bike after riding to some of my favorite destinations. I absolutely love this bike!!!

After months of reserch and thinking, I finally purchased the Himiway Zebra as my first e-bike. I'm very satisfied with my choice because this bike is a quality build. It has at a minimum doubled my range for WV Rail Trail riding. Makes my ride a lot more enjoyable.
