The HITWAY BK2 is a folding e-bike with a 281 Wh battery. That figure is 58% below the median for folding e-bikes in our database. It weighs 22.7 kg, which is 22% below the median of 29 kg. It costs 756 USD, which is 29% below the median of 1068 USD. So this is a light and cheap folder with a small battery.

You might suit this bike if you want a folder for short trips and you can charge it often. The low weight helps when you carry it. The low price helps if you want to try a folder without spending much. But the small battery limits how far you go between charges. That trade-off shapes everything else on this page.

Questions people ask about the HITWAY BK2

How much does it weigh?

The HITWAY BK2 weighs 22.7 kg. That is 22% below the median of 29 kg for folding e-bikes. So it is lighter than most folders in its class. You may still find 22.7 kg heavy to lift, but it is easier than a 29 kg bike.

How much torque does it have?

The torque is not listed. We cannot compare it to the median of 50 Nm for this type. The motor is rated at 250 W, but peak power is not listed either. So we cannot say how it climbs hills.

What speed class is it?

The speed class is not listed. The top speed is 25 km/h. That figure is a specification, not a measurement. You should check your local rules before you ride on public roads.

How far does it really go?

The manufacturer claims 70 km. Our estimate is 21 km, with a band of 18 to 23 km. That is 70% below the claim. The estimate uses a published formula: battery capacity divided by consumption on one reference ride. It is not a test ride. Use the range calculator to see how your own weight and route might change the figure.

What does it cost to run?

The price is 756 USD. That is 29% below the median of 1068 USD for folding e-bikes. Running costs depend on your electricity price and how far you ride. The battery is 281 Wh and the voltage is 36 V. The charge is 7.8 Ah. Use the cost calculator to work out your own running costs.

Where it falls short

The battery is the weak point. At 281 Wh it is 58% below the median of 672 Wh for this type. The estimated range is 21 km, which is 56% below the median of 48 km. So you will charge more often than most folder owners. The low weight and low price come from that small battery. If you need to ride further between charges, this bike will frustrate you.

Who should buy it

Buy the HITWAY BK2 if short trips and a low price matter more than range. It suits a folder you carry often, because 22.7 kg is light for its class. It also suits a first e-bike or a spare bike for short errands. It does not suit long commutes or hilly routes without a charge stop.

  • You fold and carry the bike often, and you want a lighter folder than most.
  • You ride short trips and can charge after each one.
  • You want a low-cost entry into folding e-bikes and you accept the small battery.

Look elsewhere if you need more than 21 km between charges. Look elsewhere if you face hills, because torque is not listed and we cannot judge climbing. Look elsewhere if you want a larger battery, since 281 Wh is well below the class median. The BK2 is a light, cheap folder with a small battery, and that is the whole story.
