Every Himiway bike like the Big Dog we’ve reviewed has a theme; many of the direct-to-consumer e-bike brands produce a stable of models that run the gamut from cruisers to commuters to all-terrain models and more. In some cases, the approach has seemed a bit like spaghetti-at-the-wall. And in this environment, it’s not that hard to find something that will stick. Himiway Electric Bikes has gone in a different direction. They have a definite design philosophy.

Looking across Himiway’s line, three recurring themes emerge: Big tires, big motors, and big batteries. Every bike in their lineup, including the Big Dog, shares these priorities, and yet each model is noticeably different from the others. In our Himiway Big Dog review we will look at what separates it from the other Himiway models and how this cargo e-bike stacks up among the other e-bikes we review.

What has three wheels, big range, a powerful motor, serious carrying capacity and a great price? No fair, you peeked at the title of this piece. Rad Power Bikes has finally announced their long-hoped-for trike, the very marketably named RadTrike. In this brief Rad Power Bikes RadTrike review, we will look at what we’ve learned so far about this new product.

Rad Power Bikes has what is one of the broadest product line in the e-bike space with eight models in production. The product line now numbers nine with the addition of the RadTrike, which fills what might have been the only hole in their lineup.
