What distance can you go on a single charge?
Regardless whether it is a scooter or bicycle, the claimed distance on a single charge by the manufacturers is like claimed fuel mileage on other vehicles which we know is total best case scenario.
The claimed distance is usually based on a 100lb rider on flat level ground and probably with a significant wind to the rider's back for the best results.
So for most manufacturers we recommend to cut the claimed distance in half as we have hills a plenty here in beautiful Victoria BC and our average rider weight is more than the 100lb range.
Now keep in mind these claimed distances are based on no pedaling whatsoever. When you purchase a electric bike or scooter that has pedal assist then you don have to worry or not if you are going to make it the distance that you need to travel.
