FAQ – HITWAY BK16
Is the BK16 fully UK road legal?
Yes. BK16 is described as a UK-legal EPAC pedal-assist eBike with assistance up to 15.5mph (25km/h) and no throttle. Always follow UK EAPC rules and local guidance.
What’s the difference between the Standard and APP versions?
The BK16 is commonly listed in two versions: Standard (typically non-Samsung cells and no app functions) and APP version (Samsung cells + Bluetooth/app functions).
How far can it go on a charge?
Manufacturer claims vary by assist level and conditions. Typical stated ranges are up to 43–75 / 50–93 miles. Real range depends on rider weight, hills, wind, temperature, tyre pressure and how much you stop/start. For best range: keep tyres inflated, ride smoothly, and use a lower assist level.
How long does it take to charge?
Typically 7–8 hours for a full charge.
Is the battery removable and lockable?
Yes. The 48V battery is removable for convenient indoor charging and is secured with a built-in lock. Keys are normally included.
Is any assembly required?
Yes. The BK16 arrives part-assembled for safe transport. Final setup is usually straightforward with instructions and basic tools. If collecting in person, ask us about assembly options.
What rider height is it suitable for?
The size guide suggests 167–198 cm. Key fit numbers include standover height 84–96 cm and handlebar height 104 cm. If you share your height and inside-leg measurement, we can help confirm fit.
Is the step-through frame easier to use?
Yes. The step-through design makes getting on/off easier—especially for everyday errands, commuting, and riders who prefer a lower entry point.
Is it suitable for light off-road or gravel?
The wider 26" × 3.0" tyres are designed to add stability and comfort on rougher surfaces like gravel paths and uneven roads. For heavy off-road use, tyre pressure and riding speed make a big difference.
What maintenance should I expect?
Keep tyres inflated, check bolts, keep the drivetrain clean, and monitor brake pad wear. It’s normal to do a “settling-in” check after the first few rides (brake alignment, bolt tightness, tyre pressure). Our workshop can help with servicing and adjustments.
What warranty is included?
A 12-month warranty covers major electrical and mechanical components. After warranty, our Birmingham repair centre can continue to support servicing and repairs.
Still unsure? WhatsApp 07387 386786 and we’ll help confirm fit, version choice, and the best setup for your needs.
