The Himiway Bike boasts a long range and the ability to tackle all terrain, it has roughly 60 miles of range and can be used in full electric or with pedal assist, the Cruiser distinguishes itself from others as it has the wide tires and a luggage rack with a wooden seat, this makes it stands out from other e-bikes.

The bike can handle different terrains and even performs well riding through water with the wheels still gripping to the terrain. It is difficult getting the bike to mount and start the forward momentum, you can pedal or you can use the throttle to power the bike up. It has active suspension pins that allow movement of 6-8 inches with torque of around 32 pounds, the suspension allows the bike to move up and down still keeping the ride smooth.

The Himiway Bike is affordable and suitable for beginner riders, it is great for commuting but also great for taking it out on some rugged trails.

Our Verdict

Himiway was created by Mike Magaruh in 2017 he put his knowledge to use from travelling around Asia and meeting e-bike manufacturers including the component brands that make an e-bike, he put this all into the Himiway brand where the bikes are suited to rough terrain.

The Himiway Cruiser is an all-terrain fat bike that is best riding through snow, sand and many other surfaces whilst also being able to cope with uphill climbs. At £1,699 it is an affordable price for what is offered by both the Cruiser and the Step-thru as you will be getting a fast and powerful bike.
