Where to buy
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!

Summary of Reviews
We have read all expert and user reviews on the Himiway Cruiser. In summary, this is what cyclists think.
11 reasons to buy
- The Cruiser remains stable and smooth at high speeds, thanks to 4” tires and a 100mm suspension fork.
- Kenda fat tires have K-Shield puncture protection and moderate tread, providing decent grip off-road.
- Reviewers appreciate the mix of all-terrain capability and urban functionality.
- The bright headlight allows you to see and be seen in the dark, according to several experts.
- The frame can support 350lb. Experts say it feels solid, well-constructed, and durable.
- Reviewers say assembly is relatively quick, using the included multitool and high-quality assembly video.
- Experts mention the 750W, 80Nm motor delivers an exciting ride quality that rarely feels underpowered.
- The rear rack can support 60lb and has a sleek wooden platform.
- Himiway’s two-year warranty is better than most other direct-to-consumer brands.
- The Cruiser has five levels of pedal assistance and a “Walk Mode.”
- The Cruiser’s display offers a USB charging port, a unique wattmeter, and additional metrics.
11 reasons not to buy
- Experts frequently mention the poor quality, fast-wearing mechanical disc brakes.
- Only one frame size is available, and the Cruiser doesn’t fit well at the upper end of the claimed height range.
- The Cruiser is heavy (72 lb) and can feel cumbersome at times, according to multiple reviewers.
- Fenders aren’t included and are challenging to mount when purchased separately.
- One reviewer says the battery has a charge time of six to nine hours, slightly longer than stated on the website.
- Experts complain about the overwhelming torque and power, which takes time to get used to.
- The cadence sensor is primitive, and one expert mentioned a one-second lag before delivering power.
- Two reviewers were disappointed with the lack of handlebar height adjustment.
- One expert found the LCD display hard to read and use.
- Many users complain about Himiway’s customer service when trying to address issues with the bike.
- One expert noticed a lot of chain slap when riding off-road, as there is no clutch on the derailleur.
Bottom line
The Himiway Cruiser is an all-terrain electric bike with an entry-level price. This fat tire e-bike stands out from the competition for its exciting power and longer-than-average range. However, the power and acceleration may be overwhelming for inexperienced riders. The rest of the components are entry-level and typical of this price range, but the frame is well constructed, allowing the Cruiser to function as an all-terrain recreational e-bike or urban commuter. That said, the lack of a derailleur clutch and rear shock means you should stick to light trails when you venture off-road.Expert Reviews
