- The HeyBike Hero defies logic as a full-power, high-speed fat tire e-bike that still features a lightweight, carbon fiber frame. Check it out! bit.ly/heroele...

I like that the wires underneath aren't exposed. Could use a bash guard for the derailleur. I'd want fenders included. One not-so-obvious benefit of carbon is the layup schedule can be varied to control and tune stiffness in various parts of the frame to achieve whatever goal the designer is trying to achieve.
This e-bike market has simply exploded!
Great to see!!
Sounds like a bike for people who really want a moped but don’t want to get a license, tags & insurance
How is this anywhere close to the average motorcycle that weighs 400 lbs and goes over 100 mph?
@@logitech12345678910 should have said moped
There’s a niche for everything 👌🏼
If I added blinkers, mirrors, and a horn, I'm pretty sure I could get it tagged as a moped in my state for $6 every 4 years, no insurance required. But I'm also pretty sure I could get a dedicated moped for less than this, tho maybe not so lite.
@@speedstrn unfortunately New York is hostile to mopeds, even the weakest ones are treated no differently than full powered motorcycles.
Id have expected 15 mm through axles on this carbon bike. PS. I've just got the new engwe p275 pro it's a middrive with a carbon belt and a automatic gearbox from baffang but like all bikes it has its down side only a 36 volt ⚡ battery and only a class 1 bike 😢😢😢😢
Really wish they could make a 20x4 wheel version!
Look sharp, very cool That's an excellent ebike.
Can you review the middrive?
They didn't give it to a single reviewer. Seems like the engine is still in development, as it's more powerful than anything Ananda offers themselves.
Thank you.
Swap in. 52V for a bit more oomph
Hmmmmm... why no splash guard on the chain hub and derailer? Also at that price fenders should be included. Its a cool looking bike at a not-so-great price. However, I do like torque peddling. Its the best if you want a natural feel when peddling. I also like the 9 speed gears. I have a torque ebike with 7 gears and when you get up to around 24 mph you start to feel some ghost peddling. Having an extra 2 gears on this ebike is really nice. It also has a solid battery at 18Ah. Good looking bike with nice specs but wish the price were just under $2,000.
Have you tried pedaling this bike at anything over 20 mph especially top speed? it's extremely scary if you do. The whole bike feels like a wet noodle and flexes like crazy. They need to redesign the frame before releasing this bike imo. I didn't watch your entire video but if you didn't, please apply some pedal input at top speed before suggesting this bike.
I would probably buy it if they put 1200 to 1500W motor. It looks fantastic. The step through will come in handy. It's just a little underpowered. Everything else looks real good.
Anything over 750 is technically illegal
@@mikec4308 - Yes, you are correct. Right now, they aren't enforce it where I live. I figure it this way, if it takes them 3 years or so to enforce it, I can get my power fix. I rare exceed 20 MPH in public, but it's fun to have the power when you're in the woods. I'm tired of pushing my 750W ebike on steep hills.
Did you see the flex / wobbling problems at speed that some reviewers have reported?! Deal breaker!
Can you indicate what the math said for the range in miles?
How to parchrj
I still don't understand why this was an Indiegogo? Especially if HeyBike is an "established brand". Can someone explain?
Marketing
The combination of beefy frame and powerful full suspension (= mountain bike) doesn't make sense with the heavy fat tires ( = mild offroad, city).
Change price of first number from 2 to 1 then we'd be talking heybiker
Maybe in 5 years the price will come down but right now the closest competition to this thing is the himway cobra pro which starts with a 4
Please tell me what other full suspension step through frame bikes with hub motor and torque sensor you are referring to that I can get at a lower price if I forego the carbon fiber frame. This is what I'm looking for and I would appreciate it you could list a few for me to check out. Thanks!
Check out Soul ebikes. They have a sale on their 2025 Saber Pro X through July 7.
Now much is this bike?
2400 for hub motor, 2700 for mid driveon indigogo campaign now. 4600/4900 msrpo after but very unlikely there usually they inflate the msrp and its close to the crowdfunding price or within 20-30% but it will eb a while before it is ready to sell. you don't order now and get it next week
Did you even watch? He said the price in the video. Smh
@g00fysmiley how is this shit 4600?
Fat tyres and suspension on carbon fiber bike? 🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪
"I'm not sure quite what the plan was here though, other than just shoving as many buzzwords as possible in the description."
Bingo! It's a giant piece of garbage. Still don't understand how you promote this stuff, Micah. Full suspension only needs to be used on trails. The point of fat tires is to run them at a lower PSI to act as suspension. Having both on the same bike is pointless and makes it ride like shit. Not to mention the super cheap drivetrain on a 2k+ bike. This thing is like, actually a piece of junk.
I literally called them out on this. It's an objective review, not promotion.
Manufactured in China.
And how many ebikes are NOT manufactured in China.
