    Battery budgeting is perhaps an intermediate skill in that you need to understand how your bike and battery works, but its a necessary skill. Low assist levels for longer is usually much more efficient than 0 assist followed by fuller assist.

      I usually do! My ebike is single speed, so it’s pretty fine unless I need to go up steep hills.

      I was still at 50% after a 45 mile ride. And I usually only charge it to 85% ish. :)
