9/22/21 Update. It appears on some of the new shipments throttle does not work on PAS 0 like my bike but it does work when in all PAS modes.

Remember when you started reviewing e-bikes, look now dude over 15k subs. Well deserved Jeremiah.

I’ve had this bike for 2 weeks now and here’s the scoop so far. Easy to unpack and assemble. The neck and tire align oddly which threw me a little. Everything works right out of the box once assembled. It rides well. The fat tires are a huge plus. It’s well built. The digital control works well. Settings 1-3 easy to adjust on the fly. Throttle works well. Brakes work well. Lights are good and I actually like the horn. Pedaling works well but in assist. If you run out of battery this bike has weight. Starting and stopping in a city without battery assist would be tough. But, once you get it rolling you can pedal and easily keep it going without assist. I got this bad boy to 22.8 mph with me pedaling pumping it good on flat road. It also looks bad ass, So far I like everything about this bike except maybe the seat. I’ve never had a shock seat and have always had hard tail bikes. So this is new to me and feels a lot different than what Im used too. That’s actually the only thing. Battery life is very good and cruised for a couple hours at a time with nowhere near a concern. I’m trying to think, help. The seat is my only issue. But it’s early and hopefully YT shows me this vid again so I can update. Overall, happy camper. Get lots of looks, comments and get to meet/talk with a lot of new people. Hope this helps!

Nice to see you again JM. Thanks for the video. I would really like those quiet brakes! Getting my second Lectric 'any day' now. The 2.0 step thru. (You need to get yourself a reusable water bottle.) Hi to your family.

after a few weeks of owning the Heybike. I truly love it. I recently purchased another ebike called the Veu. And I wish I bought another Heybike. The Veu is faster but it’s a much stiffer ride. Handle bars are shorter and hand grips are hard plastic which hurt my palms. Really happy with Heybike not so much with Veu.

Easy assembly, battery has good longevity given the first four days of use. Impressed with quality to this point, as well

For the nerds among us this was a great video. More people should do this type of test. Excellent.

Most impressive video test of battery life on this model bike that I have seen. Some similar models I have seen lose 2 bars after 2 miles which sounds terrible. This Heybike model seems to do very well. Question: What percentage of the total time do you estimate that you were pedaling during this test? How far do you think you could go in throttle only mode?

My Heybike Mars arrived ahead of schedule and I must say "Thank You" Jeremiah for the initial review that got me interested in the bike. (I just didn't feel like waiting the "maybe it will arrive, maybe it won't" ETA for the Lectric 2.0. Plus I got a better price). It's quite a step up from my Ancheer MTB in all regards. Better build quality and components (my brakes are well set up out of the box). More power of course-throttle only the Mars actually accelerates on a small hill the Ancheer slows down on, and I weight over 300 lbs. I especially like the more upright riding position the bike offers. In my opinion anyone who doesn't have to have a step thru and is tired of waiting for a Lectric won't go wrong in buying the Heybike Mars.

I would love to see you compare this folding Heybike to the Lectric XP 2.0.

So far I’ve been loving the rockbros bags, it’s funny how I bought this bike a year after you and bought the same bag! Lol

Great vid and good info. I have ordered two Mars bikes and your videos have been helpful. I look forward more on this ebike.

Very informative and detailed range analysis Jerimiah. Thanks

This bike is actually better than the XP (more battery capacity) and it's available now in the summer, when you actually need it. so Lectric watch the rear view mirror, you got some real competition, finally. Great demonstration as always, Mr Mc the Man.

Great videos. Pretty sure you just sold me on the bike. Just need to make sure it fits in my Ford focus hatchback trunk so I can bring it on vacations.

I am convinced. I will definitely get me one.

Great video always keep it up and I’ll keep watching 🙂

Great video, man! Love the detail and the bookmarks were well selected.

I have a 203 rotor on the front of my e bike and 180 on the back and a 24amp 48 volt battery and its a 250 watt uk version e bike and it stops you on a dime and is very comfortable. I can get about 100 miles on one full charge of battery.

Hello Jerimiah, you are one of the best KZfaqrs on the site. You provide very thorough, informative reviews and candid reviews. If I may pose a couple of questions - It appears when you tested the Mars it had 5 Peddle Assist settings, I received mine 2 months ago and it came with 3. Did they lower the number of settings? Is there a difference in ride quality when the battery is under the seat vs. the frame? Spoke vs Mag - I thought I saw a comment denoting that spokes provide more flexibility than Mags, bend easier and are heavier, thoughts? Thanks Jerimiah, you are the go-to person when it comes to e-bike reviews!

Nice video, thanks, thinking of getting one of these..

Thanks for these great videos! I appreciate they way you take your time and explaining everything in detail. I just ordered my heybike mars coming this week! Can I ask you what app you use for gps showing all your trajectory? Thanks again!

I am buying one of these tomorrow. White with green Saddle bags. Now I am thinking to add the cellphone mount too?

I like throttle only looks like too much pedaling for me

very good

Great vid! How can you say there's boring stuff in your videos, when we get a closeup of a 'bug in the mouth'? Ha! keep up the good work!!!

Love your vids but to be honest I’m only interested in the Lectric XP 2.0 comparison. 😳

Amazing video footage. I cannot believe you could ride a bike with one hand and then videotape. I got my bike in the mail. I just have to finish assembling it the petals and whatever else. where did you get that mount to hold your cell phone because I would like to keep my phone secure so it won’t fall off whenever I’m riding the bike.

Nice test. Thanks. It's nice to see other product aside from Lectric and Rad, etc. 1 question: What rear bag are you using? It looks nice.

The only drawback I see at this point is no step through. Would be really nice for the old geysers.

I love my Mars bike!

Thank you

The post just before mine was almost exactly what I was going to ask. How do the Heybike and Lectric xp compare? I'm 6'1" and looking for a good hill climber. Any thoughts on which is the best value? Are either American made? Thanks much.

Nice audio Joshu… Jeremiah! Is that the new Rode Wireless Go II with that fancy new dead cat attachment?

I am 5’11” normal build guy. Is this bike gonna be too small for me? For example does the seat go high enough for someone my height?

We really enjoy your very informative videos on e-bikes. My husband and I have decided to buy the HEY BIKE MARS for our 1st e-bike. Do you have any discount links on any of your videos for this e-bike? Thanks.

Great video as always! Since this bike and the Rideal sell for the same price, I can’t help but wonder how they compare to each other? Obviously the rideal has a better motor and the heybike has suspension, but in terms of overall riding experience which one did you like better?

Thanks JM I got my Heybike Mars today , Fellow SCPA pennsyltuckian

Is there a parts list anywhere for this. you can get a seat but brake pads chain rotors things like that good luck hunting for that

Great vid. What is the brand name of the back luggage bag that you are using?

I read that electric bike batteries usually have a 2-4 year life span. Is this Heybike battery available to replace due to size and location and if so how much are the batteries? I hate to spend$1000 and only get four years max our of the bike. Any comments welcome. Looking at purchasing my first ebike. Thank you!

great video! im ordering one :) what brand is the pack you have attached to the back?

Cool thing about the tires is that they're real dinosaur skin 🦕. Woohoo!

I am a 6'1" rider, will this fit me?

Link for the water bottle holder?

Just took out my mars today to fully test it's range. Got about 20 miles from full to empty on all throttle at 20mph on mostly flat surfaces. I'd say not bad, but a little disappointed. Its definitely fine for just a trip to some stores or for commute. The advertising is a little misleading and doesn't give you this actual fact. I am thinking of getting a second battery to double the range, but these batteries are quite expensive lol.

I was looking for a bike to make deliveries with, this is probably a good one.

Hi, I like your videos. Do you have a video of car rack for lectric XP2.0? It’s too heavy for me and looking rack for Toyota RAV4 2021.

How fast were going up the hill outside of town?

What is the different between heybike and letric xp 2.0 they look identical???

Any instructions on how to program more PAS levels, and possibly alter/release the top range speed limit from 20 mph? TIA

Where did you get that water bottle holder,name model # please

Does the mars connect to the heybike app

That bike appears to be closely related to my Rataan LM750 except for that display.

WHAT STATE ARE YOU riding in

Would you prefer this or the lectric 2.0? I’m about to buy one of them.

I got to go. Its getting dark i cant wait to the video's end . I'm good with 26 miles in Washington Pa. That will work for me in Manassas va. A lot less hilly

can see me now...watching JM videos for a few HRS..ready to pull trigger on one..But which one $1200 budget

Do you have a video showing how to unlock to 28 MPH ?

I should probably have my head examined but I just ordered my husband a heybike. It was only 85.00$ on facebook.did I really screw up?

So the big question is, if your friend or family member asked you for a recommendation as to which two electric bikes to choose from, Lectric XP or this Heybike, what would your answer be????

Hi there! Anybody can tell me if, when folded, this bike can be lifted and taken, say, into the subway or along a not too long flight of stairs, or whether it is literally impossible with that weight? Thanks!!

Got the 2.0 Step Thru! I looks like a baby bike next to the original XP. Took off the grips with the air can method - brilliant. Getting a new seat and already have a zoom seat post. Putting on mirrors and lights and I would be ready to go ...BUT the brakes are scraping on the rear and the silver adjustment 'screw' is impossible to access. Anyone out there who has a solution for this? Thanks and hope yours comes soon JM.

What is the load capacity of this bike by chance, JM?

Hey Jeremiah do you have a link for your phone holder

See this video on setting PAS levels, it may help: SETTING PAS LEVELS ON HEYBIKE MARS - KZfaq

Can you connect Heybike Mars to Bluetooth or th Heybike app?

So did they send you the unlock procedure?

So your honest opinion, do you like this better than your Lectric XP?

Does it recharge when you're only pedaling?

With the Lectric XP, can you use the throttle without PA?

Hi I just got my heybike & I ride couple times mow my odds not work so I unplugged & plug it back & now the entire screen not turn on so do you have any idea

IS THERE A WARRANTY ON BIKE AND BATTERY 🔋

What is this cup holder ?

Where can I buy one?

I hear a bit of hum and am wondering if this the hub or just the knobby tires?

No helmet? One handed, not a chance of anything going wrong. You know better than that.

The "28 mph" gimmick that the "other bike" gets is a cute marketing ploy but frankly its useless 99% of the time. Yeah, you might be able to brag to your unsuspecting friends...but for those who actually ride these things, there are considerably more important things to consider...and BATTERY is a big one. How that "other bike" company failed to upgrade the battery in their version 2 series is beyond crazy. People will pay for a bigger battery.
