By the numbers

How the HITWAY BK8S performs, on paper

Computed from this bike's catalogue figures with the published formulas. Nothing here was measured on a ride.

Estimated against claimed rangeHow far the brand says it goes, against how far our formula says it does.

ClaimedNot stated

The brand states no range claim, so there is nothing to compare the estimate with. How we work this out

Estimated range by rider weight and terrainHow the estimate moves with the weight of the rider and the terrain.

The range calculator's formula with the reference ride's settings: Tour assist, mild weather, brisk pace, knobby tyres. The ring marks the published estimate (176 lb rider, rolling terrain).

Where it sits among MTB e-bikes

Price against estimated range for 226 MTB models priced in the United States. This model is the ringed dot.

At $756 and an estimated 11 mi, it ranks 173 of 226 on estimated range per unit of price. That is a converted price: the bike is not listed for the United States, so the figure is its list price converted at the site's fixed rate.

It is off the line: the G-FORCE RS ST has a longer estimated range, 43 mi, at $699, which is at or below this model's price. 88 of the 226 are placed at converted prices (hollow dots).
