Himiway launched the 'Himiway Zebra,' a high-performing, multipurpose electric cruiser. This e-bike is an effective mix between a mountain bike and a city cruiser with ride modes that can adapt to both terrain to provide the optimal riding experience to the cyclist.
The Zebra is equipped with a 750 W gear hub motor and a 960 Wh battery with 52 5,000 mAh cells. This power storage results in the bike delivering roughly 80 miles of range in hybrid, pedal-assisted mode and up to 60 miles of range in full electric mode. This is an excellent way for commuters to save money while reducing emissions during their daily rides.
Himiway took great care in ensuring that its Zebra is safe for nighttime use. As such, the Himiway Zebra features white LED headlights and red taillights to ensure visibility in low-light environments.
