PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
1. HERO
Himiway B3 — Foldable Electric Commuter Bike 500W Motor · 70-Mile Range · 2-Step Fold · 60.6 lb · Torque Sensor The commute problem isn't distance — it's the last mile. The B3 folds in two steps, fits in a car trunk, rolls onto a bus, and parks under your desk. 48V 15Ah Samsung/LG battery, torque sensor, Shimano 7-speed. The bike that goes where other bikes can't.
⚠️ E-Bike Classification Notice The Himiway B3 is a Class 2 e-bike (throttle assist, 20 mph max). Class 2 e-bikes are legal on most paved bike paths and roads. Throttle use may be restricted on certain trails and in some jurisdictions. Know your local rules before you ride.
2. WHO THIS IS FOR
The B3 is for you if: You live in an apartment. Your parking situation is complicated. You use transit and need the last-mile gap covered. You travel with a bike — car, train, RV, ferry. You want a simple, no-drama commuter that folds away when you're done with it.
The B3 is NOT for you if: You need full-size 26" wheels for high-speed road riding. You want a dedicated off-road trail bike. You're over 6'0" (the B3's max seat height caps at 39.5"). You need a rear rack system for heavy cargo.
3. WHAT THIS BIKE ACTUALLY SOLVES
The "Last Mile" Problem
You drive, park, then walk 15 minutes to the office. Or you take the train but the station is 2 miles from home. The B3 lives in your trunk, your office corner, or your train's storage area — and covers the gap both ways.
What the B3 does:
- Folds in 2 steps — stem folds, frame folds, done
- 60.6 lb — lighter than most full-size e-bikes
- Coil suspension fork (40mm travel) smooths out city pavement breaks and curb drops
- 48V LED headlight for early morning / late night legs
The Storage Problem
Most apartment buildings have no secure bike storage. Most offices don't either. A standard e-bike you lock outside gets stolen. A B3 comes inside with you.
What the B3 does:
- Folded footprint fits under a desk or in a closet
- No elevator awkwardness — folded stance is compact
- Aluminum kickstand stays stable when parked unfolded
The Multi-Modal Problem
You commute partly by car, partly by train. You want the bike for both legs but can't take a full-size bike on a crowded commuter train during peak hours.
What the B3 does:
- 20" wheel diameter — compliant with most transit bike size restrictions
- Folds to fit in a standard car trunk alongside gear
- 70-mile range means most metropolitan commute loops don't need a mid-day charge
4. B3 vs. A3 — WHICH COMMUTER IS RIGHT FOR YOU?
Both the B3 and A3 share the same 500W motor, 48V 15Ah battery, Shimano Altus 7-speed drivetrain, and same price point. The difference is form factor and braking system.
| Feature | B3 (Foldable) | A3 (Urban) | Advantage |
|---|---|---|---|
| Frame | Folding (6061 Al + A356 steel) | Fixed frame (6061 Al + A356 steel) | B3 for portability |
| Wheel Size | 20" × 2.4" | 26" × 2.2" | A3 for stability/speed |
| Weight | 60.6 lb | 68.3 lb | B3 lighter by 7.7 lb |
| Fork | Coil suspension, 40mm travel | Rigid aluminum (12mm thru-axle) | B3 for bump absorption |
| Front Brake | Nutt JAK-8 mechanical disc | Tektro HD-E3520 hydraulic disc | A3 hydraulic braking |
| Rear Brake | Nutt JAK-8 mechanical disc | Tektro HD-E3520 hydraulic disc | A3 hydraulic braking |
| Rotors | 160mm / 160mm | 160mm / 160mm | — Tied — |
| Motor | 500W hub motor | 500W hub motor | — Tied — |
| Battery | 48V 15Ah LG 21700 (720Wh) | 48V 15Ah LG Samsung (720Wh) | — Tied — |
| Range | 70 miles | 70 miles | — Tied — |
| Drivetrain | Shimano Altus M310 7-speed | Shimano Altus M310 7-speed | — Tied — |
| Sensor | Torque sensor | Torque sensor | — Tied — |
| Top Speed | 20+ mph | 20+ mph | — Tied — |
| Rider Height | 5'0"–6'0" | 5'1"–6'0" | B3 fits slightly shorter riders |
| Max Payload | 300 lb | 300 lb | — Tied — |
| Foldability | ✅ 2-step fold | ❌ Fixed frame | B3 for portability |
| Transit-Friendly | ✅ 20" wheels | ⚠️ 26" (check transit rules) | B3 for public transit |
| Handlebar | Folding stem, riser | Integrated handlebar-stem (fixed) | B3 for fold; A3 for rigidity |
Bottom line:
→ Choose the B3 if you fold, store, or travel with the bike regularly — or ride transit.
→ Choose the A3 if you want hydraulic brakes and a traditional full-size road geometry.

6. REAL-WORLD SCENARIOS
The Apartment Commuter
You live on the 4th floor. The building has no bike storage. Your neighborhood has bike theft problems, so locking outside isn't an option you trust.
On the B3: Fold on the sidewalk — takes under 10 seconds once you know the motion. Carry it into the elevator. Roll it into your apartment. Unfold in the morning and go. Battery charges from a standard outlet — no special setup.
The Win: Your bike lives inside with you. It doesn't get stolen. It doesn't get rained on. And you still get 70 miles of range per charge for every workday.
The Park-and-Ride Commuter
You drive 20 minutes to the train station, but the station-to-office leg is 3 miles. Rideshares are $12 each way. Walking is 45 minutes.
On the B3: B3 goes in the trunk of your car at the station. Unfold at the train platform — transit-sized 20" wheels clear most rail system policies. At the destination station: unfold, ride 3 miles in 12 minutes. Total commute door-to-door: 35 minutes instead of 65.
The Win: You cut off 30 minutes and $24/day in rideshare costs. With a 250-day work year, that's $6,000 saved annually — with a $999 bike.
