Himiway

Big. The Himiway D5 is a BIG bike with a big frame, big tires, and a big 400 lb weight capacity. We see it as a good option for taller/larger riders.

The 26 x 4” Kenda tires seemed to give the bike a very stable feel when off the pavement.

It had one of our best max power range results ever!

The new Himiway full-color display is bright and easy to see in the daylight.

Front and rear lighting, fenders, and a rear rack make this bike versatile enough for other things like overlanding.

Match your bike to your style with the 5 different color options.

That Seat. It’s very comfortable on throttle-only experiences, but our team found it uncomfortable when pedaling.

The torque sensor sometimes gives much more power than you want or sometimes not enough. It’s useable, but the cadence sensor option might be worth considering

A smooth and comfortable ride thanks to the bike’s full suspension: a Suntour X1 fork with 120mm of travel and a DNM AO-6 shock with 38mm of travel.

Lots of climbing power and a responsive, natural pedaling experience from the 500W custom Ananda mid-drive motor.

A stable, planted feel due to the bike’s 74-lb weight and wide 27.5×2.4” Schwalbe Super Moto X tires.

Capable of extended rides thanks to its efficient mid-drive and 720 Wh battery.

A highly polished aesthetic in the style of Himiway’s 2024 rebranding, with a glossy, metallic flake paint job and a stem-integrated color display.

Chock full of trusty name brand parts: Samsung/LG, Shimano, SR Suntour, Schwalbe, etc.

Customizable pedal and throttle speeds, though users will need to contact Himiway for the Advanced Settings passcode.

Equipped with appreciated extras like the ABUS cafe wheel lock, an MIK cargo rack with included bungees, an adjustable stem, 4 water bottle bosses, etc

We appreciated the mid-drive’s throttle, but we found the A7’s Throttle-After-Pedal approach to feel dated. We encourage Himiway to use Throttle-On-Demand in the future.

Some trim items like the headlight and control panel did not match the rest of the overall high finish quality

Serious full suspension with 147mm of travel up front and 47mm in the rear.

Quick access to speed thanks to the 750W rear hub motor with its 86 Nm of torque.

One of the best moto looking e-bikes we have tested to date.

Off-road traction and getting over obstacles was a breeze which can be attributed to the “Himiway X Kenda” K5 off-road tires.

A cup holder! Not usually seen in e-bikes, but a welcomed change for everyday practicality.

30 miles of tested range on throttle only, courtesy of the 960Wh battery.

Nice braking performance from the Tektro hydraulic disc brakes with 180mm rotors.

The torque sensor, while a great feature on many e-bikes, might not be fully utilized on the C5. A cadence sensor would be better (though most people will end up using mostly throttle anyway).

The 5’ 3” to 6’ 4” height range has its limits: shorter riders may struggle with the height, we think a minimum height of 5’ 7” would be more accurate.
