Customer Reviews
I was very glad to be able to get a new battery for my Himiway Cruiser. I had some vandals help me out there by trying to pry the battery apart. While it still seemingly works (those batteries are pretty tough) I am unsure about its waterproofing now. Good to note that if you leave the bike anywhere for a long time, take the battery with you.
Great product, Great quality! With this battery you won’t have to worry about running out of power, it gets to where you want to go!
How long does it take to receive a battery if I order a second one?ncohcohchoclhclhcohxyoclhclhcpychlchlcphdlhxhlclydoydlhcljdpydlhcjlcoydoyxlydlydyodlyflydoydlufluflufpufpufluflufph
Very quick shipping! Couldn’t have expected any quicker! 6 days for the bike and 5 days for the battery!
We LOVE our Cruisers! My wife and I have put over 700 miles on our Cruisers riding 2-track trails in the Colorado rocky mountains. I’ve had several issues with my Cruiser, but I would definitely buy another Himiway. We have been riding some steep and dusty trails, so I was not surprised when my motor had to been replaced at 500 miles because it was making noise. Customer service was very helpful and covered it under the warrantee. I’ve also replaced the brake pads twice, but that’s by choice. I do not wait until they are fully worn out. We don’t have the long-range batteries, we carry an extra battery. I suggest you DO NOT buy a generic battery pack, they do not have the same power or range of the Himiway batteries. I’m looking at the full suspension next.
Waiting to see if I can get a key! Then I can replace the battery pack. I ordered the key but not hearing anything about it.
The battery is very powerful. A full charge gets me over 40 miles of very hilly terrain. I personally think that there should be a more secure attachment mechanism to prevent theft. The locking plunger is easily retracted with a screwdriver or knife even after it’s locked. I found that out the hard way. This needs immediate improvement to prevent theft of the 500 batteries.
