BATTERY
RANGE
The battery
range is the distance the E-Bike will travel on a single full charge of the onboard battery pack. The range will vary greatly
based on usage including tire presuure, elevation change, speed, payload, acceleration, number of starts and stops, surface type,
ambient air temperatue and level of pedal assist among other factors.
We suggest that you select a lower level of pedal assistance when you first ride your E-Bike to get to know the range of your
bike along your travel routes. Once you become familiar with the range requirements of your travel routes, and the capabilities of
your E-Bike you can then adjust you riding characteristics if you so desire.
Best Practices for Extending Range and Battery Life
◆
Do not climb hills steeper than 15% grade.
◆
Avoid throttle-only operation. Pedal to assist the motor when climbing hills and accelerating from a stop.
◆
Avoid sudden starts and stops.
◆
Accelerate slowly.
