The motor is incorporated into the solid alloy wheels, which adds much more than a sleek powerhouse. The alloy wheels are a great choice for this little slugger of a folding bike, since the wheels never need any maintenance with wheel truing, and can typically hold a higher payload. HeyBike hasn’t yet updated their site, but these alloy wheels enable the Mars Hyper to hold more weight than the regular Mars model. Another great cargo feature is the rear cargo rack, which can hold up to 100lbs of gear over the rear tire. Regular side panniers and trunk bags can fit, and with some straps, very creative things can be carried on this pint-sized punter. I suspect it's a common case, but with better cells than what Hyper wanted to use. With that battery capacity, I am not sure if it's a good deal. Bought a spare battery so I am enjoying power assisted trips in the 30+ mile range. I'm going to be down at the tropical tip of Texas for a few weeks and might check to see if they will send one to the local Walmart for me to pick up there, I don't need to bring it back home with me. I've had two Walmart bikes for years and they are both surprisingly great bikes. New Hi performance Synthetic for all on and off-road units to enhance engine performance and protection. When the wheel turns the soundcard vibrates and makes the engine sound and the exhaust pipe makes the sound louder. Great for adding street cred to any kid with a bike. Makes your bike look and sound like a motorbike - very cool. Not a bad bike who is on a budget, or who is just starting out. Tires are ok to start with, but they are only 1.95. Wider upgrade is probably a good idea at some point. The bikes battery lacks range, as the battery can only run for up to 20 miles or 1 hour. The E-Ride City scored a 26 on our Tower ebike score giving it a "non recommended ebike" rating. Read our full Hyper E-Ride City review below. Walmart is generally synonymous with cheap things. The rule of thumb in the world of biking is that if it’s cheap, it’s probably not worth it. If you are an experienced cyclist or have the ambition to be one, it will be more optimal to go to a higher range, and buy a corresponding bike, which will obviously be much more expensive. Are you able to peddle this bike when not using power without too much of a struggle. Any tips are appreciated because I just pulled the trigger and purchased it as a Thanksgiving day birthday gift. In Store products are available to view in our showroom. Lightweight, the hyperbike is the lightest VSE vehicle around and is all about easy speed for the mini. First made in the early 1990s, HyperBike has continued to reveal its character over past twenty years and has become an ideal choice for the trail. Still, the Mars Hyper is a folding bike, and can be folded down into a compact shape rather easily. With the flick of the pedals, frame latch, handlebars and stem, the Mars Hyper has all the transport utility of any folding fat tire electric bike.
