Heybike Explore Electric Bike for Adults 48V 20AH Removable Massive Battery, 750W Brushless Motor, 26" x 4.0 Fat Tire Step-Thru Ebike up to 28MPH,7-Speed

Let's start with this, prior to purchasing my HeyBike I haven't rode a bike for many years, and before ordering I never even sat on an E-Bike. When I made the decision that I wanted an E-Bike I spent a couple of months (winter time) researching different ones, I knew I did not want to spend a ton of cash, I live in Minnesota and our summers are short, so going to the local bike shops and buying a 3k bike is not a wise choice, especially not having any idea if I'd even like it. I landed on HeyBikes early on in my research, I must have looked at every E-Bike for sale on Amazon under $1400, I kept on coming back to HeyBike though, after reading a majority of the negative reviews I was ready, most of those reviews had to do with the assembly or shipping, not the performance of the bike. Before I hit the place order button I thought to myself, "if I am going to buy this big awesome looking bike who am I going to ride with?" Then it dawned on me, I have to buy two bikes, one for me and one for my wife, I left the cart and went back into the HeyBike Amazon store, knowing my wife would not like the big beefy Explore bike that I had in my cart I checked out their other models, I had a couple in mind from my earlier research and then I landed on it, the Cityscape, it had my wives name all or it, it has the beach cruiser vibes, it's cute, I can add a seat for our 3 year old, then to top it off, almost like Heybike was listening to my thoughts, I scrolled up to confirm the price and sure enough it was on sale, just started because earlier in the day it was a couple hundred more, I knew it was the one, so from my home office I yelled for my wife to "come here, quickly", she came down, "is everything ok!!" she says with a little panic in her voice, I reply, "ya wanna get an E-Bike so we can ride together?" and after she looked at it, our minds were made up. I added it to the cart. A week later I get an alert on my phone, I check my cameras and there's the UPS dude unloading our bikes. Now assembly, it wasn't difficult but it also wasn't easy for me, but mind you assembling bikes isn't something I am familiar with, I tried reading the directions and they helped but I ended up watching a couple youtube videos and that was the trick, after that it went well. Now I am writing this review after having the summer to ride my bike and I am so beyond happy with my purchase, I forgot how much fun riding a bike is, but riding an E-Bike is an experience like no other, my bike is fast, it handles well, it's just a lot of fun. Over the summer I added a phone mount, and a new seat, the HeyBike seat isn't bad but it was not my favorite, I ended up buying a slightly larger one, I also added a rearview camera on my bike, because why not!? My wife loves her Cityscape and our 3-year-old just chills and enjoys the ride, our boy who is 9 pushing 10 rides his bike, and we are researching folding E-Bikes now to see if we can find one small enough that he can ride next summer, because him not having that motor we are unable to take our longer rides, so stay tuned for that review. Now the negatives. I only have a few, one of them being the brakes, they make a lot of noise, and being that my bike does almost 30 MPH they do not provide the stopping power one would expect, some replacement brakes are on the list for next summer, (I noticed the new arrivals in the HeyBike Store and they upgraded the brakes, so I assume they are aware). Second negative the screen, and I assume most E-Bikes have similar screens, but trying to change the options requires a degree, it really needs to be simplified (again new arrivals in the HeyBike Store have app controlled settings, so again I assume they are aware). My last negative is not really a negative because I was aware before hitting the checkout button and that is the size, I wanted a big bike, I am a big guy but until you get the bike you can not comprehend how big they actually are, trying to load this bike into my truck was impossible, I had to buy a ramp, and one of those tailgate protectors so the front wheel can hang over, but I would still buy it again if I knew that beforehand (well I did but you know what I mean), because the size is what makes it awesome. If you made it this far into this novel of a review then I am assuming you are like me and doing a lot of research before hitting that checkout button, I am speaking to you directly now, just do it, it's worth it, you will have no regrets.

This item isn't currently available, and this may go unread, but I've had it stored for over two years due to issues with the seat. I became ill during that time, which delayed repairs. Recently, I fixed the seat, and I've only ridden it for about five miles since purchase. The lights are working now, too, whereas they didn't before. A bike shop was unable to repair them!This e-bike is quite powerful and heavy, so I think it's best suited for someone strong. The seat is tall, even at its lowest setting. I bought a scooter in the interim because I felt it would be safer as I age, but after trying this e-bike again, I realize how much better it is. It feels more stable and is easier to ride than the scooter.If you manage to find this e-bike again, I highly recommend it. Just make sure everything is working properly, and it’s wise to have an e-bike repair shop nearby to ensure it's safe and ready for you.

I totally love this bike. This is my second ebike and it is an upgrade in vitually every category. I love the full 26" wheels. These and the front and seat suspension make the ride incredibly smooth. I love the power and the range. Both of these are significant improvements from my former ebike. And I love being able to easily take the battery out. This allows me to charge the battery separately as well as making the bike much lighter to lift onto my car carrier rack.And I have to give two thumbs up to the customer service department. I had a problem with the settings and they provided me with a solution that total solved the problem.The only minor negatives about the bike are, one, as others have mentioned, the placement of the bottle holder is problematic. In this step thru configuration, it is totally in the way. But, as I said, this is a minor complaint. I just took out two screws and removed the holder. Problem solved. Second, the bike is a little tricky to assemble by yourself...doable, but not easy. I would reccommend having a second person to help.These little perturbations not withstanding, I love this bike and would highly reccommend it.

This is a very big bike. It has big tires & looks much like a motor cycle. Very masculine looking. My 71 year old husband loves that he can pedal when he likes or just sit & use the electric bike when he wants to, especially when going up the steep hills in our town. He rides it everywhere. I love that it gets him outside & helps him get exercise. He has put more than 1000 miles on it. His friends all try it & complement him on it. It has motivated others to get electric bikes too.

The Heybike Explore is a large bike that can handle the load. Very responsive pedal assist as well as the throttle only mode when desired.It has a large reliable battery to keep you going all day. It will also last longer while in pedal assist mode.The headlamp is very brite for lighting up those dark roads while night riding.I especially like the Chaoyang hippo skin puncture resistant tires. I haven't had a flat yet with 4 months of riding.The brakes work well, however hydraulic brakes would probably be a better fit for such a heavy bike.Customer service replies quickly when contacting them.They address you're concerns and sincerely want to help you with any questions or problems with the bike.Overall the Heybike Explore is a sturdy well built bike with a smooth comfortable ride and is very enjoyable to ride.

This E bike is very heavy duty. I have used it three times in two months. If you are sure you will use it frequently, then you are golden. Mine sits in the house collecting dust. Also they are dangerous. It's important to ride defensively and wear a helmet. Remember: Safety First !!!Amended review !!!This e-bike is too tall for me. It is a safety issue for me. I am 5-9 tall. With the seat set in the lowest position I am on my tippy toes to keep it up at a stop !!!
