Heybike Alpha 500W Mid-drive

A mid-drive fat tire e-bike for riders who want power delivered through the pedals for better balance and hill climbing than a hub motor bike.

The Heybike Alpha uses a 500W Mivice mid-drive motor with 105 Nm of torque and a 680Wh removable battery for up to 60 miles of range. Because the motor drives through the crank instead of the rear wheel, weight sits lower and more centered on the bike, and the torque and cadence sensor reads your pedaling directly for responsive assistance on paved roads, gravel, sand, and light trails.

Why this model

• Mid-drive motor design centers weight low on the frame, for better balance than a rear hub motor.
• 105 Nm of torque, more than most hub motor bikes in this lineup, for stronger hill climbing.
• 680Wh removable battery for up to 60 miles of range, and it pulls out to charge separately.
• Torque and cadence sensor delivers assistance that matches your pedaling effort directly.
• UL 2849 (bike) and UL 2271 (battery) certification are independent safety testing you can verify.

Good to know

• A mid-drive motor generally climbs better and balances more naturally than a hub motor, worth knowing if hills are part of your ride.
• 105 Nm of torque is on the higher end for this lineup, useful for loaded rides or steep terrain.
• Fat tires add stability on gravel, sand, and light trail, but this is still a recreation and commuting bike, not a full suspension mountain bike.
• Wear a helmet. Check your state and local e-bike rules.

Check your state and local regulations before riding on public roads, since rules for high power electric bikes vary by state. Not suitable for riders under the manufacturer's recommended age.
