Questions people ask
How much does it weigh?
The HITWAY BK15 Pro weighs 25.4 kg. That is 26% below the median for its type, which is 34.5 kg. So it is lighter than most e-MTBs in the database. You may find it easier to lift and store.
How much torque does it have?
The motor torque is not listed. The median torque for this type is 80 Nm, but we cannot compare. If you need torque figures, ask the manufacturer. Do not assume it matches the median.
What speed class is it?
The speed class is not listed. The top speed is 25 km/h. That is the maximum assisted speed. It may be class 1 or class 2, but we cannot confirm.
How far does it really go?
The manufacturer claims 100 km. The MathBikes estimate is 27 km, with a band of 24 to 30 km. That is 73% below the claim. The estimate uses one reference ride: Tour assist, rolling terrain, mild weather, brisk pace, and an 80 kg rider. It is not a measurement. Use the range calculator to see how your own weight and route change the figure.
What does it cost to run?
The price is 0 USD, so the purchase cost is not comparable to the median of 1499 USD. Running costs depend on your electricity price and how often you charge. The battery is 468 Wh, so a full charge takes 468 Wh from the wall, plus charging losses. Use the cost calculator to work out your own cost per charge.
Where it falls short
The main trade-off is range. The battery is 468 Wh, which is 43% below the median of 816 Wh. The estimated range is 27 km, which is 43% below the median of 47 km. So you get a lighter bike, but you give up distance. If you need to cover long distances, this bike will not do it.
Who should buy it
Buy this bike if you want a lighter e-MTB and your rides are short. It suits riders who do not need to go far. It also suits riders who want a simple bike without a huge battery. But check the range estimate against your own route.
- You ride short distances, under 27 km, and want a lighter bike.
- You store your bike in a tight space and need to lift it.
- You want an e-MTB with a lower weight and do not mind charging often.
Look elsewhere if you need long range or a bigger battery. The median battery is 816 Wh, and this bike has 468 Wh. Also look elsewhere if you need torque figures or a known speed class. Those are not published. For long rides, choose a bike with a larger battery and a higher estimated range.
