So there you have it and you can look below for the top tips to extend the range of your Ebike
Top tips to make your bike get more range.
1. Use the highest level of pedal assist that you feel comfortable with. The higher the level, the more power you'll use, but also the less range you'll get.
2. Make sure your tires are properly inflated. This will help to reduce rolling resistance and therefore increase your range.
3. If you're carrying any extra weight, try to keep it as low as possible on the Ebike. The further away from the center of gravity, the more energy you'll use and the shorter your range will be.
4. Plan your route before you set off so that you can avoid any big hills. Hills are one of the biggest enemies of Ebikes, as they require a lot of extra power to overcome.
5. And finally, make sure you keep an eye on your battery level and charge it up regularly. A full battery will always give you more range than a half-empty one.
By following these simple tips, you can extend the range of your Ebike and make sure you never run out of juice when you're out on the open road.
