Trivel Azteca - Operating Range and Battery Usage Optimisation

OPERATING RANGE AND BATTERY USAGE
OPTIMISATION
Operating range
The estimated operating range* of your
electrically assisted Trivel is as below:
1. Under No Pedalling Mode: 15 to 40 km
2. Under Level 2 Pedal Assist Mode: 50 to 90 km
* Unfortunately, it is impossible to provide
a perfectly precise operating range value
for a battery charge as there are numerous
unforeseeable factors involved in every
type of terrain, rider behavior, equipment
adjustment, battery condition and weather
hazards. These estimated distances were
calculated under ideal conditions. As for an
85 kg or 187 lbs. person riding on paved and
level roads, without headwinds, and with
tires inated to manufacturer’s specications
(see recommended pressure on side of tire),
and riding at a steady speed of 20 km/h.
The distance you can ride with a
single battery charge varies greatly
depending on several factors.
Selected power assistance mode,
road incline, wind strength, and air
temperature amongst other factors,
aect the battery autonomy.
Irregular ground types also
inuence your operating range. Per
example, a loose ground surface
such as a gravel road increase the
tires rolling resistance and therefore
require more power, thus quickly
reducing battery power.
Battery usage optimisation
There are a few things that can help you
make the most of a battery charge:
1. Use the power assistance mode you need for
each condition during your ride (you may not
need maximum assistance while riding on flat
ground or with a tail wind).
2. Down shift to a lower gear before coming
to a complete stop, then you can start off
again on an easy gear combination and shift
up progressively as you gain speed. This will
make it much easier for the motor to assist
your acceleration and help preserve your
transmission components as well.
3. Keep your tires inflated at the recommended
pressure (this will significantly reduce the
rolling resistance of your tires and require less
power from the battery).
4. Only bring the necessary equipment to keep
your overall weight as low as possible.
