Good review and you cleared it up at the end. I was going to say “THATS not the Cobra Pro, huge difference in price and specs. Great review as always and I see ya changed up the music a bit. Sounds cool more Inja Ninja style lololol 👍🏼👍🏼
I have had mine for almost a year, I put studded tires on the for winter riding and I was pretty impressed how it handled for such a heavy bike. My main pet peeve is the Death wobble like what motorcycle do. happens evertime I let my hand off the handle bars. Overall I am satisfied with my purchase.
That what is looking like the mid-drive-motor, is still a plastic cover. In that casing is the controller of the battery. I also have the same bike, but with an limited speed control. I live in Germany, where an E-Bike must be limited to 16 MpH or 25 Kilometers per hour. Run the bike with E-support faster, you need an driving licence for S-Pedelecs. And the thumb throttle is also not allowed. But this will not limiting the fun fact. The city I am living in is surrounded by large woods. This is the perfect environment for that bike.
I have the Cobra as well. I ride at woodward park all the time, see you out there man! Gotta hack the settings a little to get a higher top speed and torque
I got the Himiway Zebra last year and I think it's a pretty solid bike. With the speed unlocked and using full throttle I would get around 40 miles per charge. I swapped the display when I hit 2000 miles with the original display to a KD718 to get the max top speed to ~30mph on flat. I still get an okay range around 25 miles on throttle only
I guess they saved money on the design by using the same frame they'd use for the mid-drive version, because that looks very much like a Mid-Drive box behind the peddles. I looks cool though. definitely for big/tall riders.
I have the Zebra model. Unlocked to 40 mph technically. I can do 28 on flat ground and my son (who weighs 80 lbs less) can do 32 mph. Set speed limit to 40 kph. Change wheel size to 18 inches instead of 26 and display to kph instead of mph. Verified with phone GPS that it's showing kph but it will actually be mph due to tire ratio. Amd since it thinks it's limited to 40 kph it's actually limited to 40 mph due the the tire ratio.
Yes, for what I understand is - it is still a bike. Not sure why you do not pedal at all no matter if there is a mid-drive or hub motor available or not. It's only for support. You should go on a trail or off road to show us all or even more features on this bike. However, here is a complete review: ruclips.net/video/5ovOGCy844M/видео.html .
That’s how HE tests them it’s his channel. Plus I think it’s a great idea. There are so many variables if one takes pedaling into consideration when claiming a range. The way he tests them it gives us a worst case scenario so we know the MINIMUM range we can get. I have a 500w 36 v Ebike with a stock 13 AH battery and I added a rear rack battery 20AH. My bike has PAX 1-5 5 being max assist I typically ride using assist 4 and ALWAYS pedal. I never go throttle only. I’m in NYC (Queens) pretty level where I ride few hills. That said keeping the bike between 16-21 mph for duration of my rides I get about 27-30 miles on the 13AH bat and 47-53 miles on the 20AH BATTERY. Min 74 miles / max 83. Just for kicks I’m curious now to do a throttle only test. My guess is about 1/3-1/2 LESS range
Unlock the Limit of the Speed Press “+”, “-” and “i” at the same time for 2 seconds. Then the display will be changed. Press “-” and “i” at the same time for 2 seconds. Then the display will be changed again. Enter the password 0510. Press “i” to confirm your password. Then the display will be changed. Press “i” again. Release the button until the display entered the speed setting page. Press “+” or “-” to adjust your speed. Switch the speed unit from mph to km/h. Press “i” to confirm your setting.
Better off getting Juiced Bike rip Current S with Performance upgrade. 1000w motor and 30 mph in throttle only. 2500 bucks, plus I brought Ebikling Front kit motor with 1200W for thousand to make it all wheel drive which puts it around 37 to 40 Mph in throttle. 4k just isn’t worth it.
🇬🇧Great bike great look but expensive for its performance it needs trickin!! KT controller for a 1500 w hub you'll get 18 miles range on throttle and top speed 36 but you can turn it down to conserve your range! I like the Carbon fibre!!🤘😎🤘
Lol I was going to say the same thing lol. At that point it’s a sleigh not a stopping bike lol. If he modulated then brakes and just kept at that threshold it would stop much shorter distance
What? Bad brakes that are hard to modulate and cause a tire to lock up can definitely be blamed. I don't know why you think the opposite. Maybe you meant the longer stopping distance (due to knobby tires) can't be blamed on the brakes.
These bikes have a 25mph hard limit, you need to swap out the screen to unlock. Weighs a ton and is underpowered with a it’s Locked 48v system. Great suspension, looks awesome, very expensive with no rack or fenders. You should review the Ariel Rider (a Himiway Cruiser clone but WAY faster and more powerful) and the Wicked Freedom or Cruiser. The Wicked Freedom is full suspension but has a 60 volt 20amp hr battery running thru a 40amp controller driving a 1000w motor. You can be a poser on a Cobra or ride a big boy bike, your choice.
Can't See them tyres being cheap, it made me cringe each time you locked the back brake on skidding on the tarmac. My thought was SHIT that's a couple of mm tread just gone 😲
That is unbelievable you got a $2400 and it's got a cheap entry level 7 speed Shafter I think you can buy that shift or at Walmart for like $17 they've got that on a $2400 like you have gotta be kidding I can't believe it No fenders no rear light no brake light $2400 you've got to be kidding me😢
If they were to use higher end shifters, it would raise the price. I think your comparing this to a regular bike. A regular bike that cost $2400 you would expect very high end shifters, etc... When it comes to e-bikes the motors, controllers, battery packs, etc... are the real expensive components.
Well all I can say is comparing the two the palerma that you reviewed look a lot better than that bike it had a better derailleur it had better brakes they both had 750 W Motors I just don't know where they're getting all these high prices on these ebikes when they're all really similar to begin with
@@donwilson350 You get different prices based on how much overhead the company has. The price pays workers salaries, monthly electric bill, rent, etc... One company may have low overhead while another may be much higher. It all depends. This company may use $800 of parts and assemble everything and need to charge $2400 to pay their bills and salaries plus make a little profit. Another company may use $800 parts and only need to sell for $1900 because they have less expenses. Just the city the company is in can make a huge difference in rent costs. This is why you see the big range in prices.
@@JasonWW2000 don isnt wrong though you can build one for half the price and it would be faster… there are plenty of tutorials. In fact most of the tutorials are leas time consuming than ordering a bike. If youve got a bile just order the battery and motor. :)
Yes, you could spend thousands of dollars on an eBike ruclips.net/user/postUgkxUiL0GnyDjP32RJdd660sP8mZk4CRLTCJ and get something much higher quality. However, if you're looking for a basic model to try out eBiking this is a great choice. The assembly is easy as far as bikes go (took about an hour for me to do, I'm not an expert). All tools needed are included. I added the plastic mud guards you see and a more comfortable seat. The other reviews are correct that you're probably going to want a better seat (Giddy Up! Bike Seat is what I got - super comfortable). The battery easily handles a 2-4 hour ride if you add some of your own pedal power. I haven't even gotten it up to top speed yet - it is very fast. Components are not top of the line, but decent for the price and work just fine. It works great on dirt roads and singletrack and pavement although too heavy to do tricks or any serious technical mountain biking. I'm looking forward to using it a lot over the summer. Tons of fun!
I can tell how smooth it is based on how clear I can hear you speaking, I’m sold 👍🏾

Hi anthony, did you have to pay sales tax if you ordered thru Himiway?
@@kcretired1032 no sales tax and no additional shipping cost
@@anthonysantana Thank you, that's a Deal maker.
😢
How do you unlock the speed
Looks like a nice bike. I see the big advantage of the Himiway is that they have a real dealer network in the US.
The review is very good and honest.Thank you for sharing this video
My pleasure. 💯
i have the cobra great bike!! really enjoy and easy to ride for a big bike!
I guess they saved money on the design by using the same frame they'd use for the mid-drive version, because that looks very much like a Mid-Drive box behind the peddles. I looks cool though. definitely for big/tall riders.
It's where they put the controller for the hub drive models.
That looks like a good & fun off road bike. 🚵♂️💨
It's amazing video!
Smoother tires will help the range, lower rolling resistance
Except it's 90lbs which will significantly reduce range and with those huge tires, it's just adding more contact drag, which further reduces range.
😊ججخخزحبب😊ب
Waiting and saving for the Rhino🤞
Gonna be a great one!
I highly recommend you ride the eco motion electric bike high step pro It is the best bike I have ever rode
You showed the regular Cobra with a Hub Motor and Basic Display
Correct
You should review the Bike I have Lankelski rv700 it's decent ..the new Rv800 plus is out now as well ..1000w motor
Nice Gloves 🧤! Where i can find Bike gloves like yours?
Motorcycle store.
Himiway Cobra what is the maximum speed after removing the blockade from the 250 watt motor🤔🙏

@@HiLuckyB That's actually not how bikes are tested, sorry.

@@Harry-lmao we’ll decide how they’re tested. Thanks
So how would you describe the size of the bike? What does "planted" mean.
Planted is like sure footed, stable, “connected to the ground” etc.
looks good
Are the stickers ever coming back on the store?
Which stickers??
@@TheInja the build your dreams
@@iCraftSouls I'll restock em soon!

nice but you got to do a wheelie!
This thing looks amazing, just need to figure out how to unlock that governor. Amazing otherwise.
Wall-e is that you? say something !
I like everything about the bike except the cost :)
That’s the best part? 2400 is not bad for how much you get I just bought one lol
nice👍👍
You can't really blame the brakes when the tires lock up and skid.

Try the Juiced Rip current s it has much better spec's for less money
Fantastic range, that will suit a big fat lass or guy 🤟💯🤠👊
Well for 2400 that seems like a really nice bike. Hitting bumps and absorbing them like a sponge is a bonus.
really looks like you have two drives and its not on the web site pictures
Better off getting the Arial rider grizzly v2
These bikes have a 25mph hard limit, you need to swap out the screen to unlock. Weighs a ton and is underpowered with a it’s Locked 48v system.

I'm confused where does the 4k$ price tag come from... mediocre specs at best
Yeah nah this model was like $2500
Himiway said they sent the Pro version but didn't, so I was talking as if it was the Pro version for $4k
*FFS can you make one complete sentence without saying "LIKE" as a filler word 200 times?*
Even if I did, you'd still complain. 😂
Can't See them tyres being cheap, it made me cringe each time you locked the back brake on skidding on the tarmac. My thought was SHIT that's a couple of mm tread just gone 😲
Nah tires are durable
From the marks left on the tarmac it did take some rubber off.
@@WALLACE7084 well sure but you can do that tons of times without real harm
A himiway a himiway, a himiway a himiway…
DID NOT EVEN WATCH ONE SECOND OF THIS, I REFUSE.
Why Mayne??????
So it's a big big bike, with huge tires and motorcycle height? If you've got money to buy this bike, you'd get your money's worth.
It cost around $2100
Yo yo yo yo yo yo
I'm pretty sure this is not the pro version of the Cobra 🙈
Definitely ain't...company cheaped out on me after saying they'd send the pro.
Himiway faked out you, Son!

Uig,
Don't know what that means but I'm on board
