Range on One Charge
Running distance on one charge varies depending on rider’s weight, wind resistance, outdoor temperature,
etc. Below chart is the approximate range based on different road patterns.
Riding condition
Riding range
Road Gear Speed
PAP (Pedal Activated Power) 65 km ( 40miles) Flat Top Gear 18 km/h ( 11.2mph)
DD (Direct Drive) 45 km ( 28miles)
Flat Top Gear
20 km/h ( 12.4mph)
VPC (Variable Power Control) 50 km ( 31miles)
Flat Top Gear
23 km/h ( 14.3 mph)
CONDITIONS THAT EFFECT BATTERY RANGE
„ Ambient temperature: Extreme cold and heat can deplete the battery’s charge more quickly.
„ Number of charges/discharges: The more charge/discharge cycles the battery has undergone, the less capacity it will have.
„ Headwinds: Riding into a strong headwind will cause the motor to use more energy.
„ Road conditions: Hilly and rough terrain will cause the motor to use more energy.
„ Luggage: Carrying extra luggage on the carrier or in a backpack will cause the motor to use more energy.
„ Rider weight: A heavier rider will cause the motor to use more energy than with a lighter rider.
„ Acceleration from a standing stop: Since more energy is used during initial acceleration, riding in conditions that force you to
start and stop often (i.e. city traffic) will cause the motor to use more energy.
„ Proper gear usage: Pedaling in the correct gear for the terrain will help save energy for both you and the battery.
„ Poor maintenance: A dry or dirty chain and under-inflated tires can cause the motor to use more energy.
To help maintain maximum range
„ Charge the battery under room temperature 0 ~ 40 degrees C. ( 32~104 degrees F )
„ Discharge the battery as much as possible before recharging.
„
Refresh-charge after every 15 normal charges, but at least once every three months.
„ Use the gears while accelerating or riding uphill.
„ Don’t ride with under inflated tires and keep the chain clean and well lubricated.
