Gearing, shocks and componentsīoth have a seven speed cog in back with Shimano derailleur (RadRover’s is Acera, Himiway has Shimano Atlus shifters) and a single-speed crank front. The RadRover 5 only gets an estimated 25 – 45 miles on its charge with its 14 Ah (640 Wh), which means less time out on the single track or plowing through the snow on your way to work. Both feature a 750 w gear hub drive motor with 80 nm of torque, plenty to haul either of these fat bikes over the roughest of terrain.īoth batteries are 48V packs sporting Samsung cells, but the Himiway Cruiser’s battery has a 17.5 Ah (840 Wh) battery, allowing it an estimated 35 (full electric) – 60 miles (lowest pedal assist) on a single charge.

The motor is one area the two bikes are basically identical. They’re less identical than first glance would have you think. And the high-rise handlebar set up, along with bottom tube battery mount, makes the two look like very similar bikes.īut there are definitely some differences between the two bikes, when you take a close look at the specs of the Himiway vs Rad. Both have an almost identical frame style, with a slight bend in the top tube near the seat side.

Upon first glance, if you saw the Himiway Cruiser and the RadRover 5 side by side, you wouldn’t be looked down upon if you mistook them for the same bike.
