Who should buy it
The Hiboy EX6 fits a specific buyer: someone who wants a low-cost city bike for short trips. It is not for long-distance commuters or heavy cargo. It is a simple, no-frills option.
- You ride less than 35 km per trip and can charge at work or home.
- You want a standard pedelec without a throttle or extra complexity.
- You are on a tight budget and accept a heavier bike.
Look elsewhere if you need a longer range, a lighter frame, or more torque. The median city e-bike offers 50 km estimated range and weighs 27.2 kg. The EX6 falls short on both.
