Himiway C3
BikeRide finds and shows you the best prices of the bikes you want to buy. Prices constantly change and it’s impossible to compare them all yourself.
We search for prices on over 120 bike retailers to guarantee that we find the lowest prices – to save you time and money.
It’s a promise we stand behind: If you find a lower price on a bike elsewhere, we will sell it to you for 10% less. For example, if you find a bike for $480 that we have listed at $500, we will offer you to buy it for $432 through BikeRide. The bike must be the same color and size, sold in the US and not include the use of a coupon.
If you find a lower price, email us at [email protected] with documentation of the price. We’re committed to making sure that the cost of a bike does not keep you from cycling!
Facts
Summary of Reviews
We have read all expert and user reviews on the Himiway C3. In summary, this is what cyclists think.
6 reasons to buy
- The C3 comes with an automatic headlight, a taillight with brake activation, fenders, and a frame-integrated rear rack with a padded seat.
- An expert appreciates the Tektro hydraulic disc brakes’ strong stopping power.
- The C3 can overcome steep hills with throttle power alone, albeit slowly.
- A reviewer praises the ride comfort thanks to the plush saddle and suspension fork.
- The angle of the BMX handlebars can be adjusted for rider fit.
- A reviewer says the large color display is easy to read.
6 reasons not to buy
- The only cargo or passenger accessory offered by Himiway for the C3 is a front basket, so passengers have nowhere to put their feet.
- The battery isn't removable.
- Himiway incorrectly lists the payload capacity at 440lb, but it's actually 360lb.
- At 88lb, the C3 is heavy.
- A tester says climbing steep hills with pedal assist requires a lot of rider effort.
- With a minimum seat height of 34”, riders on the short end of the 5’2” to 6’3” stated height range won't fit.
Bottom line
The Himiway C3 is marketed as a cargo e-bike, but the brand doesn't offer any accessories to carry passengers or cargo, and the 360lb capacity is below average for this category. Reviews are limited, but the C3's highlights include strong brakes, good power, and a comfortable ride quality. Testers report ghost pedaling, slight pedal assist lag, and difficulty overcoming steep climbs with pedal assist. Overall, the C3, though competitively priced, offers poor utility as a cargo e-bike.Expert Reviews
