2nd Screen Setting...

I think some have experienced the same. There is a Himiway Owners Community on Facebook with thousands of members with great advice. facebook.com/groups/954257285018195/?ref=share

Like most things, Increasing performance, speed, power will indeed drain the battery quicker.

This is a good tutorial on that! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-cDu6qtnTWxo.html

On mine when I start petoling it takes off so fast that I haff to slam my brakes trying to figure how slow down The speed on the petol AST. Then just ez in to the thotol let me know thanks 👍👍

40 km is 25mph

The new models being sent out since 2021 are not customizable anymore. You can change a few things, but they now locked everything else out.

Probably just generic locking grips. Most bicycle shops have them. Also, there are many styles on EBay.

@@Corvetjoe1 And also on Amazon - - - dozens of different grips that won't rotate !1

Yes. It's in the manual I think second screen of the settings. But listen it will change your screen you will see it in miles. But in the screens where you put the max speed ( inside setting ) it will always be in kilometers. So when u put 90 ( kilometers ! ) The max of your speed is gonna be 55 miles. ( That is crazy for a bike. But anyways. ) My bike says the max speed is 40 and I set it at 40s. That it will be around 23 miles. Not so bad for a bike. i don't want it faster neither if I wanted a motorbike I will have bought one. I want and ebike just for the assistance to go up hill here in L.A.

I just got my Himi Cruiser today and mine only goes up to 45km as well. I am interested in info to change the max limit.

This video was done on a 2020 model over a year ago, Himiway made changes to their 2021 model. I did make an updated video for the 2021 model here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-BHkA7wy3qmY.html

@@E-Ryders you are right, the 2021 model sitting is different than 2020 model. I received my Himiway a few days ago, it works great but the throttle doesn't work when I ride the Himiway so I have to pedal. Throttle just works when the bike is in walking speed. Do you have any advice for me to fix the throttle so I can use throttle when I'm tired?

Yes, there are people in the Himiway community that suspect the default 26in tire setting isn't acuate when measuring travel distance due to the thicker tire so some will change it to 28in from 26in for a more acuate distance reading.

@@E-Ryders Nelson tech question my bike I went into the setting and set my pedal assist to 0-9 on mine but every time I save it. It still defaulting to level 1 when I turn the bike on. Do u know how to fix that?

@@brian3255 It always starts at 1 when you turn it on. But now you have the option to press the minus button to get "0" (No peddle assist). If you set it to 1-9, then you have no option to turn peddle assist off to zero and will always have peddle assist. By selecting 0-9 you have the option to turn it off and just peddle on your own power.

@@E-Ryders well before when I had it set to 0-9. The bike always turned on to Zero Not 1. It just started starting on 1 and it should not do that

@@brian3255 Its always gonna start at 1 when you turn it on. The only difference will be the option to decrease it to zero by pressing the minus button.

Yes, I heard about these new shipments being shipped with limitations now. Sucks, you would probably have to get a hold of a bike made before January 2021 to get the older version.

Not sure how 2 mph is going to make much of a difference personally? I do 99% of my riding at around 14 - 15 mph, and if in a rural area with a bike-lane, I might do 20 - 22 mph, so I'm fine as I'm sure most would be, with the way the bike comes, along with the few programming changes we can make.

@@dalewatkins9889 I use the same speed than u. Perfect. But in a straight line I will go 17 miles /h. You know it's bike. i don't want to die on it. Lol !

Well, regardless of what the display says, it'll never really go past 32 or 35 anyway with the current motor. But I suppose that leaves an option for future motor upgrades.

@@E-Ryders Do you think they've dialed it down a bit, I can definitely tell the difference between this one and the one that I got two months ago. It seems to be about 2 miles an hour slower

I think manufactures are beginning to put a max speed that can't be overridden. 45 kph is 28 mph, which is max allowed in US. My guess is liability. Bafang is doing the same. No longer able to use software to make changes with new versions. At least until someone figures out how to get around it.

Mine also start. In 2 ! And I don't know how to change it. Is was setting 0-5 ... Now is 0-7

@@LauryDepp Do You know how to back it to a Zero setting ? When You turn on the bike just set it back to Zero by pushing the _ minus button before You get over the bike ready to ride. You can go to #1 or #2 after You are moving or - - set it to #1 and slowly roll the throttle to make it start moving out as You hop up on the seat. So simple. They all show #1 when the power is turned on.

@@DYNABIKE1 ok. Thank you for your reply really. But I forgot to explain this. I bought this bike second hand to a guy who rent bikes on long beach. ( So cool I paid half price. And I am new in this E-bike technology ) so I thought this guy is using Sondor to rent. They might be good quality bikes because u know. They have to resist everything , and I was right I couldn't be more happy with my bike ) I know how to use the control. The problem was the other day I started to play around with " settings" and I didn't have the manual. I do have the manual now. ( I also contact the Sondors help, have answered only I email ) but thanks to all people like u who are explaining on you tuve some things I was able to fix it. ( Partially ) I also suggested to Sondors' help that the manual should be more user's friendly. I don't understand anything about ratio ( i mean I understand ratio but the manual doesn't say what is that for .. like it doesn't say why is important to know how many magnets ur bike has or what this 0-5 / 0-7/ 0- 9 means ? What's for ? I mean my cruiser bike has only 7 gear so? Why I have 0-9 it's related to the gear ? Or to the power ? Because I only have 5 levels of power . Do you feel me ? And I have so many questions like this. And I've noticed I'm not the only one who doesn't know this things. Like this PS ( password ) do I have to put a password for what ? It doesn't say why the password is use ? And in your case I think the password is 0510 . What is mine ? Where I get that info from ? Etc etc. And yes. My bike started automatically in 2 power. And I lower it down to 1. Every time. I haven't found the setting where I can tell the bike start in 1. I set the bike the other day to 1-7 and I realize using it. That I can't go to 0 power as I used to when I'm down hill. So today I'm going to change it to 0-5 like the original set.

@@DYNABIKE1 yes I do know how to do that. ( Go back to 1 or 0 when it start ) but I don't want to do it. It should start in 1 ! Like nay other bike. I am hurting my thumb from repetition. i already have tendinitis from the bloody computer at the office ! So thanks. But it wasn't what I was asking.

the 0510 is the default password the bike comes with.

@@E-Ryders my bike is a Sondors cruiser smart step. So , I don't know. For some reason Sondors was using this LCD screen now they have a new one.

@@E-Ryders ok. But I asked u . WHY ? Why do you change or put any password? I did all modification without ever touching the password. Do they say u have to use a password to access to what ? Am I clear ?

@@LauryDepp I didn't change the password, you have to enter the default password (same password for all Himiway bikes) to access certain locked settings if you want to change those settings.

Yeah, most of these parts come from China. I wish there was an easier fix. There might be some after market stuff you could get sooner, but you would have to pay out of pocket.
