The Heybike Horizon is a folding fat tire ebike with an atypical wheel size. Normally we see 20" wheels on folding fat ebikes, and 26" wheels on "full size" non-folding fat tire ebikes, but this one has 24" wheels putting it somewhere in between the two common sizes. The "Horst Link" suspension is another unique characteristic on this full suspension fat tire ebike. Learn everything you need to know about the Heybike horizon before you buy it in this review.

I'm so jealous of the California weather. I have to wait till the spring to ride my new ebike. Not risking destroying it from road salt.
Hello, I'm from a hot weather country, how is road salt capable of corroding a bike? 😮
Salt ruins everything@@boreanonekatto8146
@@boreanonekatto8146 salt will rust metal, destroy the motor, the salt is extremely hard on cars as well.
I had a blast reviewing that bike! Blown away at what $1499 buys you nowadays.
Another day another victory for the og, you dig? But hey if you run out of room In That apartment send it my way, been wanting one since November I think it was when it dropped and hey I'll pay for shipping man. Just busting your chops here dude, but seriously feel free to send it my way. 😂😅
It’s Chinese made that’s why it is cheap. Just make sure the battery doesn’t explode while you charge it and kill you. In life, you get risks what cheap products bring. There is no going around it.
@@mandlas.4305know of any ebikes where the battery isn't made in China?
I like that they went with 24 inch tires. It's nice to have a choice that sits between the 20 and 26 inch tires. Maybe more companies will see this and pick up on it. Anyway, thanks so much for the video! I love watching you ride around LA.
Thats wild you got #163, i got #162 last sunday & am blown away by the features of this bike
I really like this bike. That it's also foldable is a plus. This would be a great shuttle bike to take canoeing but also just a good commuter in hilly neighborhoods. And it fits in a hatchback. Thanks, great review once again.
Hats off to Hey bike for being innovative and introducing a folding full suspension step thru in 24x4. Most companies just copy each other and sell the same 48v 26x4 fat tire. Lectric just introduced a Rad copy that is about as innovative as a rock. It would be cool to see some high powered 24” bikes, I think Fabulous has one. 26 are too big for many, 20 is too small, 24 is just right?
Best E-bike review I’ve seen. Thank you for sharing your height and adjusting the handlebars and seat!
Thank you for your reviews. They help a lot when trying to decide which bike to choose!
I reviewed this bike for a website, and love it!
You r the best! 🎉 Thank you for this review!!! 🎁 Love this bike 🥳 !
24 inch tires for us shorter people, yay. Probably a little harder to find the tires when they wear out. Love the color. Looks like a fun bike 😀
I love reading your reviews. But I wish you would do some folding LIGHTWEIGHT ebikes. Not fat tire/heavy ones. but lightweight folding commuter bikes.
24-inch tires "YES". Would be great if you review more 24-inch e-bikes.
Duuuude! I just bought one using your link. Got an additional $100 off with a free lock and basket!
You gained a new sub

hey TailHappy, how do you keep wind noise out of your vids? I'm trying to record my rides and the wind noise is terrible. Thanks!
I like the review of the Nomad 1 but I might need a foldable.
What would be closest to Nomad 1.
The Hovsco Beta looks like a decent bike comparable to the Nomad performance and torque wise for slight inclines and the beach.
I got the nomad step over from a local dealer who matched the on line price and assembled it for free. My first e bike. A beast!! Acceleration, incline/up hill and cornering are great. For the price point I m very satisfied.
I am also a fan of the 24" format. Right sizing what's already TOO HEAVY AND BIG FOR A "FOLDER" *struggles folding/unfolding a bike that's admittedly a bit big for a folding format. Comments "Easy Peasy" It might have been easy, but fell a tad shy of "peasy", lol. It's nice for a step through, and you get a mostly complete and functional bike - just charge it, add a helmet, and boom. Rack looks solid. I'll take it. Let me know where to send my address, lol.
Hey just curious, do the ebike companies send you the bike on their own, or do you search out what ones you want to try, and then reach out to them? And what do you do with all the bikes after you finish the review?
Can you please review the engwex24 e bike.
That girl is very good at working those pedals. Oh look a hill.. 🤣 That screen on the bike is nice and clear, it has the best screen for sunlight. How well does the screen work at night?
decent looking bike
Mashallah ♥️♥️♥️ first

I'm not aware any full suspension ebikes with dual motors that go over 30 miles an hour for 1500 bucks...
@@dariusx4829 Hmmm 🤔 How about the HANEVEAR H100 Dual Motor (750W each) Electric Bike 20'' 1500W AWD E-Bike. At this time it’s selling for $1,340.00.
Seems like heybike has best quality for price
Could you review the alien rides atom? I've been thinking about buying one but there's no reviews anywhere, seems like a pretty fun little ebike just wanna make sure there's no major problems with it

New year, new juice
@11:53 that’s one thick back tire she had…. 😂😂😂
I’m looking looking for a e-bike
I Can fold, and put in the Car.For streets and trail.
I am Not to beat on just ride. top speed 30 mph or so . I am on the East Coast so bike trails can be flat to hilly.
So 1000/w -1200/w
Dependable and good longevity . Any recommendations?
Thanks

How hard is it to find 24" tires ?
If my new bike has hydraulic brakes and turn signals with a nice big back rack with rear seat.
Front suspension folding Luckeep S1 model I believe
So many models now it’s crazy.
Anyways I almost lost track of thought.
If mine cost 1000 plus 200 shipping. Canadian dollars
What is this Hey bike cost. It’s sure nice
If you had reviewed this bike before your top 100 bikes reviewed video, would this bike have got a mention?
Any ebike reviewer who receives any kind of compensation from manufacturers, including free bikes, should claim so at the beginning g of their video.
W vid
Needs a color display, that display is cheap looking, and bigger battery pack, 20ah is better.
Is this bike not really available to buy? Seems it’s limited as if they don’t have these really in stock
Hey, that front wheel doesn’t look that safe! It just tightens down like my old peddle bike, I prefer the bikes that have the extra protection on the front axle. 😢
I didn't see you weigh the bike and battery like you usually do.
Between the Nomad 1, Adventure 2.0, and the Basalt ST what would yall choose? I’m stuck trying to choose. Matt, I’d love your input!🤙🏽
Nomad 1 is my favorite value, I'd choose basalt st over aventure
Hovsco HovAlpha. No questions asked. Torque sensor and quick release front wheel makes it much less of a hassle in storage compared to Aventure 2. Only crappy thing ia the more limited dealer network.
Hi bro

Just because it’s a limited color combo and limited numbering, you know that some day (40-50 years from now) these bikes will collectable. P.s.: I’d call is a sunburst paint job, you know like Jimmy Page’s Gibson. 😊
Can the thumb throttle be changed over to hand throttle like that of a motorcycle?
thumb throttles should be able to be swapped sides no problem
twist throttles can't swap sides as easily because it will rotate the wrong way once swapped
I have not tried removing the stock throttle control and installing a new throttle control designed for the other side, but that may work perfectly fine
hope this helps
Clarification, can you change the thumb throttle to a twist throttle ?
Fat tire step-thru with rear suspension is a great combo. With WIRED bikes, you have to give up the rear suspension to get the step through. Sucks. I wish this bike had the higher voltage and controller. They both would be greatly advantaged by Torque sensing. Best would be a powerful torque sensing mid drive (quiet Brose) carbon fiber Gates belt rather than a dirty fragile chain/derailer and it should have a transmission somewhere in the powerchain line, either up front in the mid drive motor or back in the hub. Enviolo hub would be great. I would pay a lot of extra dollars for this set up! But I bought a Heybike Horizon anyway to have fun until this better bike comes.
Edit: An optional high speed front wheel hub motor with a second 96 volt battery located in the front basket would aid in deep sand and with high speeds!
Heybike said that they will release a 1000w motor and torques sensor version by the end of the year. Just like they did for the Mars 2.0.
What does the auto button do? I have to know!
Automatically turns a lights on when it gets dark
You can get it now for 1399 with $100 off coupon
Where’s the coupon code listed?

@@mgsexton572 well just try it it doesn’t work now for the horizon just emailed them to find out if they have a new one I’ll let you know the bf100 still works for the rangers
Better get no rear suspension than a cheap suspension. That cheap stuff will wear out quickly and then you have fun with a lot of noises, no one wants.
It’s better to buy a hardtail, put a parallelogram suspension seatpost on it and if anything goes wrong with it, you can easily switch it out.
one day you will crash into that wall.

how do i get a free bike to review? Betters still, how about a free EV car for a month to review?
These Chinese made e-bikes, I worry about exploding batteries. I would never buy a Chinese made e-bike. It’s a health hazard
Where do you think batteries come from on bikes not made in china?
