Final up to date:
I’ve reviewed a number of Heybikes at this level, and I’ve largely discovered them to be good, however not nice, bikes that concentrate on worth for cash. For that purpose, they usually use unbranded OEM elements with hub motors (though they use brand-name cells of their batteries). With the Alpha, Heybike has entered the mid-drive market whereas persevering with to use its value-for-money formulation.
The 2025 Heybike Alpha is a category 3 ebike and comes nicely geared up with entrance and rear fenders, a rear rack, a “bell” (erm, buzzer), entrance and rear powered lights, and even a cargo accent strap.
These are nice-to-haves, after all, nevertheless it’s the mid-drive motor at this very accessible $1,500 USD / $2,700 CAD worth level that makes the Alpha stand out.
Should you’re buying the Alpha proper now, here’s what it’s worthwhile to know earlier than shopping for it:
- The groupset and cassette aren’t nicely fitted to hills, so you can be counting on the motor quite a bit – This isn’t essentially a draw back, however when you’re somebody who needs to get as a lot pedal energy in as doable, you’ll really feel the Alpha’s shortcomings with out pedal help. This can even affect the vary that the small 13.5 Ah battery can present.
- The throttle implementation is terrible – I don’t know what compelled Heybike to implement what’s objectively the worst throttle on an ebike I’ve ever used. It doesn’t apply full motor energy and is speed-limited to 10-13 mph /15 – 20 kph. It isn’t responsive, and you may’t use it from a cease or at low crawling speeds. It’s, at finest, a sluggish cruise management.
- The motor is extremely highly effective – And I’ve ridden a couple of bike with the Bafang M620 (Himiway Cobra Professional, for instance), which produces 160 Nm of torque. The Alpha options Heybike’s “Galaxy e-Drive system”, which is actually a custom-made Mivice X700, producing a take-your-butt-anywhere 105 Nm of torque.
- App customization is proscribed, however nonetheless accessible – Earlier Heybike’s I’ve reviewed, just like the Brawn, have been extensively customizable by way of the Heybike app. You may change pace settings per pedal-assist (PAS) degree, for instance. The Alpha is far much less customizable: you possibly can change items of measure, PAS degree settings (0-5, 1-5, and so on.), however not a lot else.
- Journey high quality is simply okay, and the suspension fork isn’t superb – The fork’s suspension is both on or off, with some preload adjustment however not a lot, and no different adjustability. You get a pogo-stick-like bounce as you pedal, and it doesn’t handle quick technical driving very nicely. I’d have most well-liked if Heybike went full-on fats bike and shipped it with a lighter mounted fork.
- The Alpha is sized for riders between 5’4” and 6’ – I’m 6’2” and discover the bike is only a hair small, whereas Brayden at 5’9” finds the Alpha completely sized.
In brief, there’s at all times this sense with the Alpha that its mid-drive needs to do much more than what the remainder of the bike can deal with. It needs to fly, and it completely has the ability to do it, effortlessly climbing hills in ways in which lesser motors haven’t any hope of matching.
That’s why it’s so irritating that Heybike impaired the Alpha by giving it anemic suspension and a ineffective throttle. This bike might have been the inexpensive, throttled-up monster truck mid-drive that everyone on the ebike subreddits says they need, however as a substitute, it’s a potent engine pressured to run with its shoelaces tied.
I’m so dissatisfied, as a result of the Alpha is actually inches away from being nice; All Heybike must do is repair the throttle.

Heybike supplied a 2025 Alpha at no cost for this evaluate. webBikeWorld doesn’t have a monetary relationship with Heybike. I’ve reviewed over 30 e-bikes and am an avid path and downhill bicycle owner. My “acoustic” path bike is a 2024 Orbea Occam H30, and my ebike secure is a revolving door (I presently have 7 in my storage).
With because of Brayden at Chaos Inc. for posing in a few of my pictures (together with the quilt) and offering his perspective on the Alpha. For reference, Brayden is 5’9”.

2025 Heybike Alpha Aesthetics & Design
The Alpha is available in two colorways: Galaxy Black (stepover) and Pearl White (step-thru). Sadly, every body is simply out there in its respective single shade. I opted for the step-thru as a result of I’ve family and friends members who admire accessibility, and low-step-thru frames just like the Alpha are the best to mount and dismount.
As my brawny pal Brayden stated after he was performed hefting the Alpha about, “It’s truthfully a great-looking bike… how a lot did you say this was once more?”
He’s not improper. I believe Heybike has obtained the proportions proper.
The Himiway D5 Professional – a direct competitor to the Alpha – has the same setup, however is bulkier and fewer athletic-looking. The Alpha appears prefer it’s in form, whereas different ODM mid-drive step-thrus are inclined to appear to be they’re bodybuilding.
It’s laborious to make a step-thru look good, however I believe Heybike has performed a great job of it.
The fat-but-not-too-fat 4” tires and fender mixture spherical out the aesthetic. They aren’t something particular, however they’re sized proper and add some visible heft to the step-thru body.
The paint job is on level. I don’t see any paint bubbles, overspray, or drip marks. The graphics on the body, fork, and wheel are additionally utilized properly. High quality impressions on the body are good, with clear welds, tidy wiring, and good proportions.
What’s the Heybike Alpha Wish to Journey?
The Alpha’s driving dynamics shocked me; they’re a complicated juxtaposition of functionality vs. element limitations. The Alpha’s motor needs you to thrash it about, however the groupset and limp throttle beg you to decelerate.
The Riverstone Check Loop
Each ebike I’ve ever examined has ridden this 14.5 mile / 23.5 km loop, which winds via Calgary’s Fish Creek Park.
The Riverstone Check Loop is a pleasant mixture of paved trails, dust singletracks, grassland, climbs, technical descents, and a brief however aggressive downhill part.
Based on Strava, there’s a complete of 850 ft / 260 meters of elevation acquire.
Whereas not as goal as instrumented checks (a shout-out to Electrical Bike Report for his or her dedication to instrumented testing), I acquire a terrific perspective on how completely different bikes and elements carry out in blended terrain, permitting for an inexpensive apples-to-apples comparability.
The Alpha obtained most of its rides throughout dry, temperate days within the 70-80°F vary, though I did get caught in a thunderstorm with the Alpha as soon as (it was a moist and muddy journey residence!).
The Alpha’s Strengths
- Whereas it’s formally rated for 105 Nm of torque, I wager you it makes greater than that.
- With the suspension locked out, pavement and groomed trails are comparatively snug; I ran round 12 psi and had a lot of traction.
- With the preload adjusted as tender as doable, the fats tires and suspension fork do a satisfactory job smoothing out singletracks and circulate trails.
- The body is surprisingly sturdy contemplating it’s a low-step-thru design. There may be some flex while you forcibly wobble it about, like while you’re hitting technical trails at 10 or 15 mph, however what are you able to fairly anticipate from a low-step body?
- The Alpha climbs actual hills with relative ease regardless of the weak cassette and groupset; Greater than as soon as, Brayden ate my mud because the Alpha climbed prairie-grass laden hills, stomping over the twigs, foliage, and bumps with ease. Very spectacular.
The place it Might Enhance
- The pedals (primary flats) haven’t any grip to them, so it’s straightforward in your ft to slip round when pedaling.
- The suspension fork woefully underperforms relative to the remainder of the bike and infrequently pogo-sticks when put underneath strain (the suspension bounces versus cushions, decreasing management and making the driving expertise unpredictable). It’s the plain weakest hyperlink within the configuration, adopted by the cassette.
- Rework the throttle implementation in order that it behaves as anticipated; limiting the throttle to 12 mph and not more than 50% of engine energy output severely limits its utility and worth.
- Introduce a shift sensor that cuts motor energy throughout shifts, because the groupset will slip if you’re making use of something apart from reasonable energy whereas shifting.
Extra Element
A torque-sensing mid-drive fats tire ebike needs to be a dream on singletracks or when overlanding. With a correctly configured torque sensor, the delicate inputs from the motor, paired with 4” vast tires, make navigating rocks, roots, sand, snow, and different rugged terrain a lot simpler.
That’s precisely how I felt after I reviewed the 2023 Floor 604 Boar Hunter, a fat-tire torque-sensing hub motor ebike that’s one in every of my “benchmark bikes” due to how nicely it handles the terrain, together with navigating the riverbank.
In the precise circumstances, the Alpha is a pleasure to journey: the pedal help (PAS) is clean, responsive, and intuitive. It seems like a pure extension of my leg, and while you crank the pedal help up, there’s a variety of energy available that’s at all times accessible.
Most significantly, the Galaxy e-Drive motor and torque sensor configuration feels proper; The facility is predictable, straightforward to control, and in addition straightforward to articulate. It’s nice for driving in crowded, slender, or advanced areas, the place additional management is crucial.
I crawled alongside river bends, up steep grades, and over prairie grassland; the Alpha’s engine at all times felt mild and controllable. Whenever you’re trawling via mud or a rocky seashore, you need a motor that gained’t shock you. Inputs matter.
Give it the beans and the Alpha will fortunately hit 28 mph / 45 kph everytime you need it to. It has a lot energy out there that it nearly taunts you with it. In any case, PAS 1 is a delicate nudge, certain, however perhaps PAS 5 is the kick within the pants you’re after.
The photograph betrays the dimensions and size of the hill, which is each steeper and longer than it seems (at the least, that’s what my almost-39-year-old mind retains telling itself).
This hill is roughly 4 km into my 23.5 km take a look at loop and is the primary important hill that the Alpha will encounter. I deal with the hill head-on to see if an inexpensive quantity of pedal energy, paired with the motor, will get me up.
Thus far, solely a handful of ebikes have been capable of get to the highest of this hill with out completely heroic effort on my behalf, two of which sported the monstrous Bafang M620 1,000-watt mid-drive and the groupset wanted to place all 160 Nm of torque from that motor to make use of.
So naturally, I felt assured after I instructed Brayden that there was zero probability that the Alpha, with a “mere” 105 Nm of torque, was climbing that hill. Truly, I believe the particular verbiage I used was “this wimpy cassette isn’t getting this bike up that hill, irrespective of how a lot energy the mid-drive places down”).
So, anyway, here’s a video of me climbing (after which descending) the hill:
I’m not ashamed to confess that I used to be improper.
Regardless of a little bit of wiggle-action (thanks, janky pogo-stick suspension), it was comparatively straightforward to make the climb. If the Alpha had a correct cassette, it in all probability would have gained pace going up; As configured, there was solely a lot I might contribute given its gearing, forcing the motor to select up my slack.
Equally as shocking was how the Alpha behaved coming down, contemplating the Alpha’s portly 78 lb weight; No drama, no wobble, no stress – a pleasant, straightforward, controllable descent.
The fats tires have been aired to 12 psi for this journey, and so they took the bumpy decline in stride. The brakes additionally felt good, although I don’t assume they’d have the ability to carry the Alpha to a useless cease on this hill (for comparability, the Tektro hydraulic setup on the Himiway D5 Professional does carry that bike to a cease on this hill).
This preliminary robust efficiency gave me the boldness to push the Alpha for the opposite off-road sections within the loop, together with sending it down into the river valley and climbing proper again up once more by way of singletrack trails. The extra I obtained to know the bike, and particularly the terrible suspension fork, the extra enjoyable I had driving it aggressively.
Regardless of utilizing value-focused elements, Heybike has created a broadly competent “monster truck” ebike that may climb, crawl, and careen down, into, and out of areas that my puny pedal energy would have no hope of going by itself.
And, as a result of of its small 13.5 Ah battery and mid-drive geometry, the Alpha feels balanced. Once I stood to provide myself additional oomph, the rear wheel saved its traction and let me climb hills that my hub-drive Floor 604 Shred or Himiway D5 (non-pro) would have pressured me to stroll up.
Sadly, all of this climbing functionality is mired by sub-optimal downhill efficiency. I don’t imply hardcore mountainbike-style downhill, both.
My gripe with the suspension fork is that it’s extra of a spring than it’s a cushion. The place the motor is able to taking you up most hills nearly effortlessly, the suspension is incapable of getting you again down the hill with out a good bit of effort and focus on the rider’s behalf. It jogs my memory of the Fucare Gemini X, which additionally includes a very springy “on or off” suspension fork. In each instances, I’d quite the bike have a set fork, which might at the least weigh much less.
This dynamic signifies that the Alpha can’t hit a few of the circulate trails and technical singletracks as quick as a lot of the off-road succesful ebikes I’ve examined – however it might nonetheless hit them. Certain, you’re going a bit slower, however you’re nonetheless capable of be there.
The Riverstone Check Loop ends with a 1 mile / 1.6 km paved climb, and as you anticipate, the Alpha has no qualms with it. On pavement or groomed trails, the place bumps are small and much between, the Alpha is compliant. PAS 1 will get you to fifteen mph / 20 kph simply, and mean you can put within the work if you wish to go sooner than that.
One remaining observe: I’ve not discovered a single occasion the place the throttle, as configured, is definitely helpful. It doesn’t work till you might be shifting at about 5 mph / 8 kph, and even then, it solely gives as much as 50% energy. Within the eighth gear on flat floor, you should utilize the throttle to cruise at about 13 mph / 20 kph. It doesn’t present sufficient energy to climb hills of any size.
It’s only a complicated, terrible implementation, particularly contemplating the restrictions it locations on the Alpha within the identify of element preservation (however once more, there’s no shift cut-out, so how involved is Heybike actually?).
Sadly, due to this implementation, you possibly can’t use the throttle as a rider support. I really like utilizing the throttle to inch alongside the riverbank, for instance, or to assist get me up a very technical climb. Neither of those use instances is feasible with the Alpha, which does have sufficient energy to get you up a hill on throttle alone… if the throttle would let it.
Having now accomplished a half dozen circuits across the loop, I’m each impressed by its functionality and dissatisfied at how the suspension fork and throttle implementation let it down. Whereas neither is a deal-breaker, it’s straightforward to see how a few minor modifications might considerably enhance the driving expertise.
2025 Heybike Alpha Construct High quality & Parts
Dig under the “core” elements, and you may see the place the $1,500 MSRP comes from. The no-name hydraulic brakes, hubs, bearings, suspension, and so on. are all low-tier entry-level.
However to hit $1,500 in 2025, post-tariffs and all, I’m not in any respect shocked. I can also’t fault a few of these selections. The one element that I’m let down by is the fork, which, in all equity, could be modified (albeit not simply).
Brakes
I weighed the Alpha at 78.5 lbs, which is roughly 7 lbs greater than the claimed weight on the Heybike web site. That’s a variety of weight to maneuver round, and accordingly, you want the precise brakes.
The Alpha is provided with no-name hydraulic brakes (with motor cutoff when engaged) and 180 mm rotors. I don’t love generic components in relation to brakes and tires, as these are the 2 elements that work together with the bottom and handle your pace.
That stated, the brakes have carried out as anticipated to this point. Efficiency is common at finest, however very acceptable for the Alpha’s use case and worth. Don’t take this bike on hardcore trails or downhill, although; These brakes gained’t dwell as much as that kind of stress.
Motor, Drivetrain, & Groupset
The 8-speed Shimano Altus groupset does the job, although I believe that the cassette isn’t fairly capable of match what the motor is placing down. I skilled quite a few dropped gears and mis-shifts whereas the motor was engaged, which is truthful sufficient, but additionally brings me to a little bit of an itch that I can’t scratch:
Heybike says that they’ve restricted the throttles operate to guard the drivetrain, however then didn’t implement a shift sensor to chop energy throughout shifts. So whilst you can’t use the throttle to tear via the gears, you possibly can completely achieve this if you wish to pedal aggressively.
It doesn’t make a lot sense to me.
The above picture was taken after 37 miles / 60 km of pretty aggressive off-road driving. You possibly can already see a few of the enamel rounding off, which can end in gear slippage, particularly underneath energy. I used to be capable of resolve a lot of the gearing points by adjusting the derailleur; nonetheless, the issue persists intermittently underneath load.
Notably, the slippage happens most frequently when altering gears whereas the motor is engaged. That is usually of high-powered mid-drives, which can be why it’s shocking to see that Heybike didn’t set up a shift sensor to chop energy throughout gear modifications.
What’s very clear to me after driving is that the motor could be very able to overpowering the cassette. I anticipate that this bike will rip via cassettes and chains, so it’d be a good suggestion to have some higher-quality replacements available.
The Alpha is the primary ebike I’ve ridden geared up with the Mivice X700 / Galaxy e-Drive, and whereas I can’t communicate to longevity (although you possibly can wager I’m going to place miles on this one to see the way it does), I can say that my first impressions of this motor are fairly optimistic.
- The torque-sensing configuration is spot on, with wonderful energy supply – It feels clean and linear, like I’ve bionic legs, and could be very controllable.
- The claimed 105 Nm of torque is possible an understatement – The Himiway D5 Professional additionally includes a mid-drive, however with 130 Nm of torque, and the Alpha feels simply as potent.
- You possibly can simply hit the highest pace of 28 mph / 45 kph with reasonable pedaling – And, a variety of the time, I discovered myself going sooner than that. You don’t have to go this quick, nevertheless it’s good to know that the Alpha is joyful to do it.
- Battery life is superb – Heybike claims a complete vary of 60 miles / 95 km, and I’ve skilled real-world averages of about 45 miles / 72 km. That is utilizing a 13.5 Ah battery for a 79 lb ebike. I’m fairly impressed.
Ignoring the lame throttle that I’ve already lined at size, the Galaxy e-Drive system is proving itself to be a really succesful mid-drive. Repair the throttle and pair it with a beefier cassette, and the Alpha’s drivetrain would nearly be good.
Suspension Fork
In a phrase: satisfactory.
It’s fine-enough when locked out, however when unlocked (or “on”, principally) it does a poor job of cushioning something until you will have adjusted the preload to minimal. It’s a disgrace, as a result of with the tires and motor, the Alpha ought to be the proper singletrack trailblazer, however the fork misses the mark and is nearly a hindrance vs. a profit throughout quick, bumpy driving.
Attempting to preload the suspension for a bunny hop, for instance, is simply irritating as each the burden of the bike and its lame-duck fork are working towards you.
On a latest journey, whereas I used to be descending from the ridge to the river valley by way of a singletrack path, there was a pointy drop that different bikes may view as a “soar”; The Alpha’s suspension couldn’t deal with it. As quickly because the tire left the bottom, I felt the suspension fork lengthen with a thunk via the bars, and the tough (and bouncy) touchdown that adopted instructed me every little thing I wanted to know: hold these tires on the bottom always.
If the remainder of the bike is your jam, you may exchange the fork with one thing way more competent for $250 – $450 or so. If I find yourself retaining this bike long-term, I’ll make the swap.
Wheels & Tires
I don’t love 26” wheels since a lot of the two-wheeled world has shifted to 27.5” or 29” wheels, and the 26×4” mixture remains to be not as frequent in North America as it’s in different components of the world. That stated, alternative tires could be discovered affordably, and so they do weigh lower than their bigger counterparts.
The generic no-name model tires carry out surprisingly nicely in blended driving, seemingly as at residence within the dust and sand as they’re on pavement. Whereas making an attempt to outrun a thunderstorm, these tires put up little or no fuss climbing up a muddy path to get to the highest of the ridge (and on our approach again residence).
The tires are noisy and never well-balanced out of the field. At larger speeds, there’s a slight vibration via the wheel. I like to recommend getting your wheels trued by a certified bike technician earlier than you place too many miles in your Alpha.
Handlebars, Show, & App
The handlebars are comparatively slender, largely straight, and straightforward to entry. On the left bars, you will have the management pad, and on the precise bars, you will have the shifter and twist-throttle (the twist throttle takes up half of the precise grip, which provides to the friction tied with the ineffective throttle).
A shade LCD show sits entrance and heart, and it’s each vivid and straightforward to learn. Utilizing the “M” button on the left handlebar management pad, you possibly can swap the show between numerous show mods (ODO, journey, time, and so on.).
The Heybike App, out there on each iPhone and Android, is the place you can also make some customizations:
- Modify the show items between MPH or KPH
- Modify what number of PAS ranges you will have (1-5, 0-5, and so on.)
- Modify the show brightness
You may also remotely flip off the bike, set journey monitoring, and so on. by way of the app. Nonetheless, these capabilities are largely elective.
Disappointingly, the app is much less sturdy for the Alpha in comparison with the Brawn, Tyson, Ranger S, and, frankly, each different Heybike I’ve reviewed. You can’t regulate the pace restrict for every PAS degree, for instance, which appears each arbitrary and a disgrace, provided that you are able to do so on Heybike’s different fashions.
I lauded the customization the app dropped at the opposite bikes, and I encourage Heybike to carry that again to the Alpha.
Equipment
Effectively-equipped with powered entrance and hind lights, a steel rear rack (with bungee cargo strap), entrance and rear fenders, and even flip indicators and a horn, the Alpha comes able to exit of the field.
I don’t have any complaints, however sadly, I misplaced the cargo strap someplace between my final photoshoot location and after I arrived residence. Then once more, I additionally hooned it on some riverside singletracks and downhill segments, and it wasn’t precisely a clean journey…
Rivals
There aren’t many fats tire/mid-drive mixtures out there on the $1,500 worth level, and plenty of bikes on this worth vary are hub drives with cadence sensors. To get a torque-sensing mid-drive with a good battery and hydraulic brakes at $1,500 is unusual.
One of many Alpha’s closest opponents can be one I occur to have in my storage: the Himiway D5 Professional.
Honest warning: The D5 Professional is available in at the least $700 dearer at any given time. It’s additionally equally as competent, full of a beefy torque-sensing mid-drive, Tektro hydraulic brakes, an adjustable stem, and sporting a greater (although nonetheless not superior) suspension fork… together with objectively the worst seat I’ve ever ridden with (toss it instantly and placed on a correct saddle).
If in case you have the additional $700 to spend, the truth that the throttle on the D5 Professional capabilities such as you need it to is sufficient of a purpose to go for the Himiway over the Heybike. Nonetheless, when you actually don’t wish to spend that cash, or it’s doable however a giant stretch, the Alpha is a high-quality selection for the cash (and in addition the better-looking of the pair).
Conclusion: The Heybike Alpha is a Positive Bike That Might be a Nice One With a Few Small Modifications
Should you’ve made it this far, I believe you’ll agree that this evaluate is blended despite the fact that the Alpha is so near being so good.
The best repair for Heybike is to regulate the throttle so it performs like conventional ebike throttles, and in so doing the Alpha’s driving dynamics enhance from a 3.5 to a 4.25. If there’s some price range to spare, skip the suspension fork and provides me a greater cassette. The fats tires can present loads of consolation, and the burden financial savings can be welcome.
Heybike, when you’re studying, please repair the throttle and belief that your clients could make selections of their finest curiosity concerning its use.
The factor is, when you aren’t inclined to make use of the throttle a lot and when you’re not too involved about bouncy suspension in your informal rides, there’s a lot to love concerning the Heybike Alpha. The potent motor is borderline addictive, and Heybike ships you every little thing it’s worthwhile to every day journey the Alpha proper within the field.
If you need an inexpensive and competent four-season all-terrain bike, the Alpha is a worthy contender.
Evaluation Abstract
The Alpha is a complicated bike: On one hand, the Galaxy e-Drive motor is potent, highly effective, and punchy; On the opposite, the anemic suspension and horrible throttle configuration carry pointless friction to the driving expertise. The Alpha is inches away from being nice, nevertheless it additionally feels hampered arbitrarily by what is probably going a easy firmware replace to repair. If the throttle just isn’t an element for you, the Alpha is a critical contender and one of many best-priced in its class.
