Understanding Battery Range
All electric bicycles have a riding range that can vary greatly
depending on how it is ridden, terrain, tire pressure, temperature,
payload and wind. After a few rides, you will get a sense of the
electric bicycle’s range capability.
Factors that will decrease your range:
•
Rapid accelerations using the motor
•
Uphill riding
•
Heavy payloads
•
Headwinds
•
Under-inflated tires
•
Extreme hot or cold weather
How to increase your range:
•
Start by pedaling instead of only using the motor
•
Avoid rapidly accelerating using the throttle
•
Pedaling to help the motor up steep hills . Use your gears
•
Reduce your average assist level and pedal along with the motor
•
Reduce payload weight
•
Properly inflating your tires between 35-45 psi ( stock tires )
•
Coast to a stop and avoid rapid decelerations

Notice: Riding downhill or pedaling when not using the throttle will not recharge
the battery pack. Do not over-inflate the tires.
