How much of the 70-mile range did you get in real world use? Did you use the T1 in unlocked 25 mph mode?

I was 250 pounds when I was riding the bike for testing and also typically used level 2/3 assist. Most of the time it was fairly flat and I calculated I was seeing something like 45-50 miles on a full charge. I did NOT use it in unlocked faster mode as the default was plenty for me. Thanks.

The main hill has a grade of something like 13% and is a couple of hundred yards long so I can rarely make it up on an ebike unless the bike has a big motor or is light enough. I cannot make it up the hill on my standard bike. I'm 6'1 and 245-250 pounds so I was very impressed that I could power up the hill with no throttle assist on the T1. It's a fantastic ebike that rides and looks like a regular bike.

What's the hill like by your house. I live up in newcastle, wa about 450 feet above the lake and would like to commute to downtown. It's a bit much without assistance even with my road bike that has mountain low gears on it. I'm 6'2 250...

Awesome right up and that thing looks awesome, even though we all know you used the force to lift it.
