Maximizing the Riding Range
Many factors affect the rate of use of the electrical energy and the riding range.
You should fully charge the battery before a long journey.
Rough road conditions and hilly terrain will consume more energy.
Frequent change of speed will consume more energy.
Carrying more weight on the e-bike will consume more energy.
Keeping the tires properly inflated and keeping the e-bike clean and
well lubricated will save energy.
Making sure that both wheels move freely when brakes are not applied will
save energy. You should check brake adjustments frequently.
Pedaling as you ride will consume less electrical energy and increase the
riding range.
When the ignition lock is turned off, your e-bike functions as a regular bicycle.
If you embark on a very long journey, you might want to turn off the battery
for long stretches where the road is level or downhill and pedal the e-bike as
a regular bicycle so that you can conserve electrical energy stored in the
battery.
