Running alongside its ongoing Valentine’s Day sale, Heybike is officially launching its new ALPHA All-Terrain e-bike for preorder with an early bird discount through February 25 of $1,599 shipped for either its black step-over model or its white step-thru counterpart. If you were fortunate enough to be one of the hundred buyers of the brand’s early bird coupon ahead of today, you can look forward to an additional $50 being taken off the total price for $1,549 shipped. This model will begin shipping on February 23, at which point the price will return to its full $1,699 price tag, so the $100 to $150 markdown here is appreciated. One thing to note though, the brand has stated that there will only be 300 units released as part of this first round of launches – so don’t dawdle on decisions too long or you’ll miss out!
Heybike’s latest ALPHA e-bike arrives as the first release from the brand’s Galaxy eDrive System, which utilizes a 500W Mivice mid-drive motor alongside a 680Wh battery, five levels of pedal assistance, and a torque sensor to provide rider support for up to 60 miles on a single charge at up to 28 MPH top speeds (depending on state laws). This e-bike has been designed to be a more cost-friendly solution, with its performance improvements not impacting its price as readily as other brands, much in the same tradition as Lectric’s XPeak 2.0 e-bikes (though they’re still coming in $300 under the starting price here).
That’s not to say Heybike is holding back, as they’ve decked out the ALPHA e-bike with a bunch of nice features, like the hydraulic front suspension fork, hydraulic disc brakes, the Shimano Altus 8-speed derailleur, 4-inch puncture-protected fat tires, fenders over both wheels, an integrated rear cargo rack, an LED headlight with an auto-on functionality, an integrated taillight with braking light functionality, and an LCD for settings and controls (as well as app controls too). It weighs in at just under 72 pounds, boasting a 400-pound total payload, and don’t worry, it comes with a half-twist throttle for electric-only preferences, though it has been given a safety feature that won’t allow it to be activated until you’ve pedaled it into motion first.
Be sure to check out Heybike’s full Valentine’s Day sale for more e-bike options – especially if you’d prefer a folding e-bike – as the brand’s popular models start from $999. That’s not the only seasonal savings we’re seeing on e-bikes right now either, with deals from Lectric, Rad Power, Segway, Velotric, Blix, and Tenways – with the latter three offering up to an additional $200 discount on orders of any two e-bikes. You can find some of these in last week’s Electrified roundup or browse the entirety of our Green Deals hub for everything we’ve collected that’s still alive and well.
