Well we got our bikes after ten weeks waiting going to put them together today . Thank you so much for taking the time to make so much easier for us to assemble our new bikes. Very well appreciated.
Sorry for delayed response, but I'm glad to hear you got your bikes and found the video helpful. We've been riding a bit more as of late since we got our new bike rack (video pending). Be safe and have fun!
I really appreciated your comments at the end. Like you I have never ridden an ebike before. Harleys yes but no ebikes. It is nice to know what to expect. I ordered mine yesterday. I hope I get the same configuration of tires and lights that you received. Again, thanks.
Great review especially after your first review. Hope you keep recording your bike upgrades and updates. Good luck to both of you and stay safe and WELL
Thanks for the watch. I'm sure it'll be there before you know it. I think after the holidays they are a bit more realistic on dates now. Let me know how it works out!
Thanks. Got mine today. Ya, I didn't know what that part was. The derailleur guard. Not much detail in the instructions. Which bolt goes where. But I figured it out. The bike wants to take off. Pretty startling. I'll probably put it on zero at crosswalks and tight places. Lots of power.
Thanks for this remarkably clear and thorough video, Jayson. Your sharing what you've learned will save me lots of time (& aggravation?) when my Himiway arrives!
I looped a strap around the rear rack arms a few times and pulled them close, after attaching the bottom points and one of the top ones. I then was able to press on the arm while pulling taught the strap to friction-grip the arm in place for screwing it in. Leverage ftw.
Got mine Jan 3, 2021 and the only problem I had were the bolts for the rack were super stuck in the frame. Probably put in without taping the threads to clear the powder coat. Had to use small vise grips to get them out. Otherwise it's a great bike.
@@jaysonolson33 they are pretty much completely made in China... hell the "warehouse" here in the US doesnt even have spare parts for warranty. Everything always has to be shipped from China.
Great Video presentation! Igot alot of ideas and insight on you installing your bike. I plan to order my bike in the next few days and use PayPal to pay it off in 6 months.
Not sure what piece you are exactly talking about. There is a very small L bracket that is used for the headlight/fender assembly, or do you mean the larger steel bracket used as the optional derailleur on the rear hub?
Well I hope you got it now and am enjoying it. I already invested in a new seat that will be here in a week! And we just got the FedEx notice for my wife, so I'm expecting 2 weeks on hers.
If You get the correct pedals on the correct side of the bike they Both screw in turning the bolt toward the front of the bike. No need to talk counter clock etc. - - ->>
I need help. I bought a Himiway and received it 2/15/21. All good out of the box and for 3 rides. On my 4th ride lost all power had to walk it home. After checking all connections and finally getting to tech support it was determined controller was the problem. I paid $99 to have a new controller. It has been 11 days and my controller has not been confirmed for delivery. Please help.
Quick question Jayson, I am 5’3 will that bike work for me ? Himiway website claims it work for rider 5’3 to 6’4 I think , but I want to make sure. Thx
I think you may be pushing it. My wife if 5'4", and even the stepthru is a challenge for her. Maybe if you lowered the seat call the way down...You might want to look at the Escape....that sits a bit lower. Thanks for watching and good luck.
I have seen people on the back, but I suppose it depends on their weight. While the brackets in back are strong, I probably wouldn't put a 200lb person on for very long. More suitable if you had a child with a seat, or someone around or under 150lb. Keep in mind this will eat up more battery and wear out brakes faster as well.
Do You really think it was on and off the truck for so many days ?? I can't see them spending that much time circulating Your bike / box. Makes no sense.
I know for a fact it did change vehicles at least once. They straight out told me (real time convo) it was on a van for delivery one day before it got to late, and driver returned and they then put it on a truck on the following Saturday. Unsure how many times it did get on/off a truck, or just stayed on a truck and moved about, but the difference between my wife's box and mine were night and day (hers was perfect). I literally have 6 emails from them on 6 separate days stating it was out for delivery.
I have a proposition. I have a vtuvia 750. The same one Arnold Swartzineger has. You can check my videos out by clicking my name. I wanna compare my opinion to others opinion and you can do the same on your channel. Ill ship it with all the attachments and you can remove them if you want to see what base performance is. I also want you to try the himiway step through battery on my bike as a fit and performance review. Interested let me know.
YAY! You took the battery out to change while assembling 🚲. Hope all has been going well with 🚲. True on the take off. I've felt that tug. Ride on!

I hope you enjoy your adventures. I'm having a blast and really looking forward to the summer. Thanks for the watch and reply!

Good info-ordered the same combo 2-14, cruiser scheduled for delivery this week-6 weeks or so for the step thru-
I hope you enjoy them. My wife is finally getting used to hers.
Ordered mine, fedex shows delivery tomorrow... I have my doubts since it hasn’t left California yet and I’m in Arizona. Great video!
Thanks for the watch. I'm sure it'll be there before you know it. I think after the holidays they are a bit more realistic on dates now. Let me know how it works out!
7 days from payment to delivery in Arizona! Now for assembly...

Thank you for watching and commenting. Happy this helped you!
thanks for the video and nice use of caddywompus!
Thanks. Not a word I break out often, but seemed to fit on the fly. Lol.
Still waiting for the delivery of mine....3 weeks in....great video and really appreciate you sharing.
Thanks for watching. I hope to do a few smaller videos in the coming weeks, but it's been pouring rain in my area...no bike rides recently.

FTW indeed. Smart solution!
Thank you!
This was very helpfull, as I intend to order this bike model soon.

Glad it was helpful!

Sorry to hear that. Seems like the quality control for mass production could be a tad better. They are actually made partially in China I believe.
@@jaysonolson33 they are pretty much completely made in China... hell the "warehouse" here in the US doesnt even have spare parts for warranty. Everything always has to be shipped from China.
Great video, I think the bike was opened and inspected by customs and not exactly fedex did that but I could be wrong 😂
Great Video presentation! Igot alot of ideas and insight on you installing your bike. I plan to order my bike in the next few days and use PayPal to pay it off in 6 months.
That's how I did it...via PayPal. I recommend getting your own 15mm hand wrench as opposed to the multi-tool that's included.
Thanx for a good video! Where does the little, black L-bracket go?
Not sure what piece you are exactly talking about. There is a very small L bracket that is used for the headlight/fender assembly, or do you mean the larger steel bracket used as the optional derailleur on the rear hub?
@@jaysonolson33 small one. How is it to be used on the front fender assembly?
Mine came with the very same scuff on the front fender.
Bummer, kinda sux when we spend $15oo and it comes 'imperfect' out of the box. I feel your pain.
Just got mine. Yours was set up differently than mine. It was sitting at a where house in Chino for 5 days to

Nice. She get the step through

Why didn't you show the front tire installation??

Can you put somebody on the back

@@jaysonolson33 Man thats sad. What a way to run a company eh ?!
@@jaysonolson33 The big question is why FEDEx is letting set in their warehouse for days. I would let the seller know how bad FEDEx delivery is.
