Heybike has launched the Saturn electric bike in the global market, introducing its first motorcycle-inspired e-bike with full suspension, fat tires and dual-battery capability.
The new Saturn adopts a retro moped-style design and carries UL 2849 certification for electrical system safety.
The e-bike is powered by a 1,000 W rear hub motor capable of delivering up to 1,800 W peak output and 95 Nm of torque. Heybike said the Saturn reaches a top speed of 28 mph (45 km/h) as a Class 3 e-bike, while higher unlocked speeds of up to 40 mph (64 km/h) are also possible.
Buyers can choose between two battery configurations. The standard version uses a single 957 Wh battery pack, while an optional dual-battery setup increases total capacity to 1,931.6 Wh.
Heybike claims the single-battery model can deliver up to 50 miles (80 km) of riding range, while the dual-battery version extends range to as much as 90 miles (145 km).
The Saturn rides on 20 x 4-inch Chaoyang fat tires and features full suspension, including a 140 mm hydraulic front fork and rear spring suspension system. Hydraulic disc brakes are also included as standard equipment.
The e-bike comes equipped with a TFT color display showing riding data including speed and battery levels. Riders can also connect the Saturn to the Heybike smartphone companion app to access real-time ride information and post-ride journey statistics.
Additional features include turn signals, a horn, front and rear lighting, and IPX6/IPX5-rated water resistance.
Heybike said the Saturn supports a maximum payload capacity of 330 lbs (149.6 kg).
The Saturn is priced at $999 and is currently available in a black color option through Heybike’s official sales channels.
