Single-piece bike frames aren’t new, however it’s uncommon to see a full-suspension folding e-bike constructed on a one-piece magnesium alloy body. That didn’t cease Heybike from chasing that dream and developing with the Heybike Tyson folding electrical bike.
The brand new e-bike was simply unveiled forward of its first public exhibiting at CES 2023. It joins numerous different Heybike electrical bicycles that the corporate has debuted over the previous couple of years.
In contrast to the opposite fashions in its household tree, the Heybike Tyson has a totally new design and construction.
The unibody development of the bike is claimed to be a primary in its class, however this isn’t nearly setting information. The design can be mentioned to assist scale back weight whereas growing the sturdiness of the e-bike. Based mostly on latest experiences of e-bikes struggling within the sturdiness division, something that may be carried out to extend longevity is probably going a prudent funding.
Heybike cofounder William Li mentioned the benefits of the bike forward of its upcoming public debut:
“We’re very excited to launch Tyson throughout CES 2023. We designed this product to provide riders the final word in aesthetics and comfort whereas delivering a driving expertise like none different. Tyson just isn’t solely attractive, it’s additionally robust due to the progressive one-piece magnesium alloy development. As with all Heybike merchandise, riders can really feel the superior high quality and sturdiness in each facet of the product. Tyson’s distinctive body geometry and folding unibody present power and aesthetics whereas additionally permitting the bike to be smaller and simpler to suit into small areas. All this, plus a robust 750-watt motor makes Tyson the proper steadiness of kind and performance.”
The magazine wheels are spokeless to scale back upkeep. The rear wheel hides away a small format 750W hub motor behind a 7-speed gear cluster.
We don’t but know if the bike will likely be restricted to Class 2 speeds of 20 mph (32 km/h) or if Heybike will enable it to succeed in Class 3 speeds of 28 mph (45 km/h). It is going to include a thumb throttle although, which is able to hold the bike in line with the remainder of the Class 2 e-bikes within the firm’s lineup.
The Heybike Tyson may even embrace a 48V 15Ah battery with 720 Wh of capability. The corporate claims a most vary of 55 miles (88 km) on pedal help, although we haven’t been capable of independently verify these figures.
The 77 lb (35 kg) electrical bike continues to be fairly heavy, so it’s not clear how a lot weight was saved by going with a unibody design (and naturally the rear swingarm provides a second body section, to not point out the heavy suspension elements).
Regardless of that heavy weight — or maybe due to it — the bike is alleged to have the ability to carry a most weight on the rear rack of 120 lb (55 kg). With that a lot weight capability on the rear rack it may doubtless additionally do double obligation as household bike for dropping off children at college (little one seat not included).
Those who would like to get a bit wilder on the bike and hit the paths will likely be blissful to see that the Heybike Tyson consists of each entrance and rear suspension. That entrance fork is outwardly a hydraulic suspension fork, so it ought to truly be pretty respectable and never like a budget springer forks we frequently see on finances e-bikes. The rear suspension doesn’t look fairly as fancy, so don’t anticipate to leap this bike off a loading dock and stroll away unscathed.
Between the suspension and the four-inch fats tires although, the bike ought to float over most terrain imperfections higher than a typical hybrid or leisure e-bike.
Hydraulic disc brakes additionally come normal on the e-bike, ensuring riders can cease rapidly and safely.
There’s no phrase but relating to what they’ll cost for the bike, however we’d anticipate to see the Heybike Tyson on the corporate’s web site quickly, worth and all.
