Heybike Compact City - Yellow

Heybike Compact City yellow at GOfatbike

The Heybike Compact City in yellow is a nimble e-bike with 20-inch wheels and a striking, cheerful color. Yellow makes you highly visible on the bike path, while the low frame and compact size make mounting and parking easy. The automatic hub shifts gears for you, and the motor assists as soon as you pedal. Below you’ll find what this yellow Compact City offers, who it suits, and what to watch out for.

Frame, step-through, and comfort

The low step-through lets you sit on the saddle with a small step, great at every traffic light and convenient if you like to keep your feet close to the ground. The fork suspension and wide 20'' x 2.4'' tires absorb bumps so you stay comfortable. Weighing around 24 kg, you can easily lift the yellow bike over a curb, and its compact size keeps it agile in the city. You can adjust the saddle to your height, and the yellow paint really stands out among other traffic.

Range and battery

The 36V 13Ah battery pack (468 Wh) allows for multiple rides before needing a recharge. Your exact range depends on weight, wind, and assistance level, so keep a margin. Choosing a lower assistance level more often will extend the range. Charging takes a few hours. The battery is lockable, so you can safely charge it or take it with you when parking the bike outside. With a maximum load of 120 kg, you can carry yourself plus luggage.

Motor, gears, and regulations

The 250W rear motor provides pedal assistance up to 25 km/h in three levels, without a throttle. You pedal yourself, so the Compact City counts as a regular electric bike, without a license, registration, or helmet requirement. The automatic 3-speed hub shifts for you, so you can keep pedaling without thinking about the gear. We advise against tuning it up, as that takes the bike out of its category, puts too much strain on the brakes, and can void your warranty.

Brakes, lighting, and equipment

TEKTRO hydraulic disc brakes ensure short, controlled stopping distances, even when wet, with little hand force. Front and rear lights keep you visible in the dark. The automatic hub takes care of shifting, and the suspension with wide tires cushions the ride on bumpy roads. This keeps everything simple to use. For a lock or bags, there are separate accessories that fit the yellow Compact City.

Who is this e-bike for

The yellow Compact City is for those who want to stand out and have a small, agile city model without manual shifting. Great for daily rides and highly visible in traffic, especially if you often ride at dusk. Expect a bit more weight due to the tires and suspension, and it’s not super fast. If you want convenience, cushioning, and a color that stands out without the hassle of shifting, this bike fits well.
