Himiway Cobra Review: Bike Overview

As is usually the case with electric fat bikes like this one, the 750W rear hub motor is really the core of this bike.

As this is a new bike, the motor has fittingly gotten a redesign. This new iteration makes 86Nm of torque and is better at dissipating heat than the old motor. It’s fast, torquey and climbs exceedingly well.

Himiway Cobra Pro Review 2023 | Loads of Power, Tons of Fun!

Powering that motor is a 48V, 20Ah battery that’s removable and fully integrated into the frame. It’s large, and, in typical Himiway fashion, gives the bike a really solid range despite its inefficient fat tires and energy hungry motor.

The drivetrain on our review bike is Shimano Altus 7-speed with a Tourney shifter, the same setup that came on the old Cruiser.

Braking is handled by a set of Tektro hydraulic disk brakes with 180mm rotors front and rear, though Himiway’s website is more ambiguous about the type of brakes on the bike, indicating this part may get swapped out.

This bike SURPRISED me!. Himiway Cobra Pro

Suspension wise, the Himiway is a full suspension e-bike with a four bar linkage. I have to say I’m pleasantly surprised with how well this bike rides, which I have to be honest I did not expect to say in this review. My skepticism is rooted in the fact that this is Himiway’s first full suspension e-bike, they likely do not have much experience designing suspension systems and, to be totally frank, a full suspension e-bike at this price point is very hard to pull off.

See rear suspension is hard to pull off. It takes lots of engineering know-how, careful design and tactful use of materials to make a bike that feels laterally stiff and vertically plush. I’ve ridden plenty of affordable full suspension e-bikes that frankly weren’t worth the money, and another few that felt downright dangerous. But the Cobra is neither. I’m not sure if Himiway got lucky or really did put its money where its mouth is on this one, but the Cobra rides very nice.

Frame wise, the Cobra is a very large bike. Compared to other popular electric fat bikes such as the Aventon Aventure or Rad Power Bikes RadRover 6 Plus, the Cobra’s wheelbase is a full 4 inches to 6 inches longer. It’s also taller than either of those bikes, with a 32-inch standover height that’s 4 inches taller than the Aventure and 1.5 inches taller than the RadRover.

The Cobra is a refreshingly aggressive design from Himiway. It’s still affordable at less than 5000,500, but it takes one giant step forward in terms of its off-road readiness.

The Cobra’s four bar linkage is surprisingly functional, but that rear shock is still on the affordable end of the suspension spectrum. Be expecting to know what it feels like to bottom it out in rough terrain.

The front fork is much the same as the shock. It worked fine in our testing, but bear in mind it’s not the high-performance suspension you’d expect from pricier e-bikes.

Himiway Cobra Review: Motor Performance, Speed and Acceleration

There’s a lot to say about this motor, but I’m going to start with its pure power.

When the Electric Bike Report staff used to talk about Himiway models that we’ve tested, we used to talk a lot about unbridled power — about bikes that leapt off the line quickly and really didn’t hold back. Himiway bikes felt distinctly more powerful than other e-bikes we’ve reviewed. With the Cobra, nothing has changed.

This bike is quick and torquey. If you’re looking for something that rides a little more gently, especially at lower speeds, this one is likely not for you. But if you’re power hungry and want something that’s not going to hold back, keep reading.

It’s also remarkably sensitive. We used to complain a lot about how delayed a Himiway could be from the moment you began pedaling and the moment the motor kicked on. That appears to have been addressed with these new models with the addition of a remarkably sensitive torque sensor. As opposed to the old cadence sensors, the torque sensor detects how hard your pedaling and applies motor power accordingly. That means you can adjust how much power you’re getting simply by adjusting how hard you’re pedaling.

The Cobra has the standard five pedal assist settings and a throttle all set to Class 3 settings, meaning the motor will assist your pedaling to 28 mph and the throttle will power the bike to 20 mph. Right around now is when, in a typical review, I’d interject some complaint about PAS 1, the lowest pedal assist level, giving virtually no assistance and being pretty useless. Here’s where I’m going to give you whiplash: PAS 1, and really most of the low PAS levels, are too powerful.

In our circuit test, where we sample the performance of each PAS level, the bike’s speed lept from a 12 mph average in a lap with no help from the motor to a PAS 1 lap with an average speed over 18 mph. That is, by a long shot, the quickest PAS 1 lap we’ve ever recorded around our test circuit.

I’m all for having usable power at that low of an assist level, but boy is 18.4 mph too quick. It also leaves little room for adjustment in the PAS levels above that, which we saw evidence of in our testing. PAS 1 should be mellow but usable, but maybe we’re just seeing some early release glitches from Himiway.

The Cobra is a physically large e-bike, but on off-road terrain its long wheelbase and slack head angle help the bike feel planted and predictable.

The 750W rear hub motor has been retooled to make 86Nm of torque and dissipate heat better.

The 48V, 20Ah battery has been moved inside the downtube of the frame. Giving the bike a much cleaner look.

Himiway Cobra Review: Range Test Battery Performance

In our range tests, the Cobra’s large 48V, 20Ah (960Wh) battery performed expectedly well.

We tested the bike’s range in two power settings, PAS 2 and PAS 5, to get a sampling of low-power long range riding and high-power short range riding. In PAS 2, the Cobra went for 65.06 miles with a seriously impressive average speed of 15 mph. And in PAS 5, the bike lasted 36.37 miles at an average speed of 17.15 mph before dying.

While both those ranges are solid, I’m very impressed with the results from the PAS 2 range test — namely the average speed. A 15 mph average over 65 miles is seriously quick, with only the Surface604 Werk (equipped with an upgraded 960Wh battery) even coming close to matching it.

It’s doubly impressive considering the amount of energy the bike likely had to consume to go that fast over that distance. To put it short, battery range should not be a concern on the Cobra.

This Supplier is UL 2849 Certified. Himiway Bikes

To help assess the safety of e-bikes and electrically power-assisted cycles (EPACs), we involved industry leaders in developing next-generation e-bike safety requirements for UL 2849, the Standard for Electrical Systems for eBikes. This Standard offers electrical and fire safety certification by examining e-bikes’ electrical drive train system, battery system and charger system combinations.

UL 2849 covers:

  • e-Bikes (typically sit-to-operate and over-the-road use) and pedal-assisted electric (pedelec) cycles
  • The risk of electric shock during charging over the life of the product, as well as other potential electrocution hazards

The Standard does not evaluate for the operator’s ability to maintain control while riding.
