So far so good. I have finally managed to take the bike out for a significant commute to work. Unfortunately, I am still recovering from a knee injury suffered from refereeing soccer... The commute is about 20 kms each way. In the morning, on my way to work the throttle was only getting me up to 8kms per hour. I figured that this had to do with a setting that I must have messed up. On Pedal assist, at the highest level, I could get the speed up to about 36 km/h on the highest gear with medium effort. I usually like to push hard when pedaling a non-powered bike. This felt nice, but the settings were off as I know that the bike can generate more power when I had tested it around the block during the colder months. Arrival to work was nice and a little earlier than usual. Plus my knee didn't bother me at all. If anything, the slight effort strengthened it. Before heading home in the afternoon, I managed to reset the system and wow! Using only the throttle, got me to a top speed of 46kph. This draws quite a bit from the battery. I then took a wrong turn and added a couple of kms to my ride. So I got worried about range as I didn't want to have to pedal without assistance with a bad knee. I stopped using the throttle after about 10 minutes. Instead, I set it to level 9 pedal assist. Speed remained high and between 40 and 46 kph. Got home much faster this time around with one bar of juice left in the battery. What a fun ride! I use clipless pedals and love how I can just get going by twisting the throttle and worry about clipping in later. I just wish the computer nomenclature, navigation and instructions were more user friendly. I'll figure it out in time.
