One of the main features of HIMO C20 is the removable seat in which the pump is hidden. If you have a flat tire on the road, you just need to remove the seat, get the pump and pump up the tires. This is an amazingly handy feature! I have never seen this in electric bikes.
Does HIMO C20 have display?
On the left side of the steering wheel is a small display, as well as two physical buttons to turn on and control the screen. The display shows battery level, distance and speed. The icons and numbers are quite large, and they are highlighted in white.
Above the front wheel there is a large white LED lamp for safe driving in the dark or in low light. Behind there is also a lantern that glows red. Even pedals have reflectors!
