10. Maximizing the Riding Range
Many factors affect the rate of use of the electrical energy and the riding range.
²
You should fully charge the battery before a long journey.
²
Rough road conditions and hilly terrain will consume more energy.
²
Frequent change of speed will consume more energy.
²
Carrying more weight on the e-bike will consume more energy.
²
Keeping the tyres properly inflated and keeping the e-bike clean
and well lubricated will save energy.
²
Making sure that both wheels move freely when brakes are not applied
will save energy. You should check brake adjustments frequently.
²
Pedaling as you ride will consume less electrical energy and increase the
riding range.
²
When the battery 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.
