Tips
7.3.1 Range
Various factors determine how far you can go with your battery:
When you go on a long trip it is worth taking a spare battery
or battery charger with you.
Assist mode: You consume the most battery power in the highest assist
mode. The range decreases, the higher the selected assist mode.
Vary the assist modes you use. If there is a tailwind when
going downhill or on the level, you can still go fast with a
lower assist mode.
Tire pressure: If the tire pressure is too low it is harder for the tires to
rotate. The drive unit needs to provide more assistance and the range
decreases.
Riding style: A low pedalling speed combined with high gears results in
high power consumption.
Change down in good time to maintain constant cadence,
especially when starting.
Your fitness level: The fitter you are, the less assistance you will need.
