Thank you, I will have my first test on my way to work tomorrow. Just because it will go 31 mph... I don't plan on abusing it. I've noticed if you are on the throttle going downhill, you can actually go faster releasing the throttle and pedaling, set at 22 mph, when on throttle... the motor actually acts like a brake. Thanks again :)
That’s because it’s set to 22 mph so the motor is trying to throttle down the speed to 22 change it to the 90 and it won’t try to throttle back until you go over 90. I also agree if you can get into the controller program you can make these go way faster than 30
They have changed it so you can only max out at 40 you can't put it up to 90 anymore. Mine was said it's 36 I put it up the 40 which is the max setting. I just got my bike today went for a little night ride around the neighborhood in boy don't this thing light up the stripes on the tires glow when the lights hit them
Hi! It will use the battery up faster, if you use the higher speeds constantly. But, I haven’t noticed it being any harder on the motor. I’ve had mine three years this month and it’s still going strong! Enjoy!
@@ncaverync Ok. I’ll try it today. I’m pushing 400 miles on mine. I average around 30 miles on a full charge, but I weigh 250, down from 315 last year. 👍
@@ncaverync Ok. I thought I had the older model. Mine wouldn’t go past 45. But I’m thrilled. It still worked! I took it for a run this morning. My top speed was 22. Now it’s 28, so I’m happy with gaining another 6 mph! Which is enough speed for me on an Ebike! 👍
I was able to do this with my bike but I think they updated the software or something because it won't let me go past 45. They must have figured out people were doing this or something
I live in California and just got my Escape. I went to settings and max out the speed it only goes to 45 max instead of the 90. My max speed at full throttle is 25mph, tire pressure 25 psi. Maybe the bike ship to CA are more regulated.
Manifest, Unfortunately, I think all the newer Himiways are being more strictly regulated. I’m hearing all the newer ones have the same limitations that you’re encountering. You’ll still love the bike!
@@badimpulses17 upgrading controller will give you more amp to go faster. You will need the compatible battery specs required to run whichever controller you get
Every other video I've seen stops at 40. Are they just simply not pressing the button any more than that because they don't want to get into trouble? I'm picking mine up in 2 weeks, so this will be one of the first things I do.
Hey so I Just tried that exact process and it didn’t let me go past 40. You went all the way to 90 and it only let me go till 40, then when I locked in the setting it went to like 26, definitely faster then 22mph which was what I was maxing out on, but just was wondering does it go any faster then 26? Why did it not allow me to go to 90 like you. Thank you for everything
Hey Jared, I got my bike in June 2020…I have heard that they’ve made some changes on the newest bikes, possibly limiting them to the “40” setting. You’ll still enjoy it going to 26 (and probably faster downhill). You’re going to love the bike. Still riding mine almost every day!
Can you help me? I only want to set the Himiway Cruiser handgas as a start -up aid without driving full throttle? So e.g. on 5 miles when I open the hand gas fully.
The two-button device is the controller for my Lumos helmet. It signals my turns. The mirrors are Meachow brand from Amazon: MEACHOW New Scratch Resistant... www.amazon.com/dp/B07XT11XG1?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
I’m not sure Ben. I posted this video back when I first got my 2020 Cruiser model in the US. I don’t think it works on the newer US Cruiser models made since then.
Hi - I have a new bike, just got it, the 2021 version. The "LS" only goes up to 45, not 90 like the old model, does this mean it wont go as fast as the older model? Can only get it to go up to 21mph, where people with the older model say it can go up to 31mph.
Hey Joe, I’m really not sure. Others are reporting the new bikes top out at “45” also. I don’t know how this affects the top speed limit now. Mine is still going strong at over 2200 miles!
hey I dunno if you're still wondering about this, but yeah the newer models are down to 45 now. Upgrading the display will change that, providing you get the right one.
You can recover the factory default settings by pressing and holding the “-” (“minus”) and “i” buttons for 2 seconds. This will show the “dEF-n” screen (“default-no”). Press the “+” button to change it to “dEF-y”, then press the “i” button to make the change. You can then press your power button to shut the controller off. You should be back at the factory defaults when you power back up!
@@ncaverync Well I just wonder if your speedometer is accurate. I own ariel d class with two motors 1500 watts and hyperscopin and hyperscramblar and they barely go 32 mph .My speedometer on my bike is showing 33 but it actually going 2 miles less. I ordered two hemingway cruiser I think I will do a speed test with all 3 bikes. My fastest bike is rize rx pro 37 mph .Happy New Year.
@@ncaverync does it come with mudguards or have they to be bought seperate. They only offer 250w motor for EU countrys UK & Ireland. Delivery from Poland 1500vEuros. The Rad rover Rhino 5 is 1600 Euros. That comes with mudguards but no carrier but the Hemingway does.
@@donwiley4081 Yes, but there's a new code. I believe Himiway has it on their website, but it voids your warranty because it's not legal. Still, though. You paid for the 750 watt motor, so you should at least get commute speeds. 25 don't cut it for 2 grand...
@@ncaverync alright, thanks! Would be cool to see a video from afar of just how fast you're going at different pedal assists, throttles, and to hear your comments on the difficulty of each :)
