Does the traveling distance per charge vary depending on the terrain or battery capacity? (S-6860)
The traveling distance per charge varies depending on the terrain, battery capacity, and assist settings of the drive unit. Generally, the traveling distance tends to increase on a flat terrain, with a larger battery capacity, or reduced assist power output setting.
The traveling distance can also be increased by shifting the gears properly for the terrain or riding situation as well as changing the assist mode frequently. Shifting gears can help your cadence be properly maintained, reducing unnecessary assist power output.
It is recommended that the assist power output be increased when riding on an uphill slope or with a strong headwind to conserve your energy, and be reduced when riding on a flat road, downhill slope or with a downwind.
Click here for details.
How does the assist power output change when the assist mode is changed? (S-6870)
Generally, the higher the level of the assist output power setting (increased in order from OFF), the smaller the force on the pedals is required to output larger assist power, achieving increased riding performance. Reducing the assist power output setting tends to deliver a more conformable ride, achieving increased traveling distance.
Assist profiles control the assist power output characteristics and are optimized for each type of drive unit depending on anticipated usage conditions.
