Brian I wanted to help you out after I read some of your comments hope you don’t mind….. to determine your throttle only range use this equation- battery voltage (48/52/60/ etc) times the battery capacity (amp hours) and divide by 40 if your over 200 pounds. Divide by 35 if your under 200 pounds. Gets you very close. Additionally fir those that want a large capacity battery with a rapid charger(up to 20% of the capacity) ebikemarketplace will make whatever you want. So a 60Ah battery can have up to a 12amp charger without harming it. Enjoy and see you guys on the path. Hope this helps
Thanks for the info. I have never researched throttle only. Just info based on my testing with pedal assist. I typically charge at 15a on 50Ah on my trips but only during the day. At night when I have more time to charge it is at a much lower c level with my cycle satiator. Probably 4-5A only.
I’m having a custom battery made fir my bike to handle an amp charger like yours. Brilliant solution to range anxiety for real long distance travel. Super impressed with your trip and it’s a joy to watch. Don’t stop making the movies they are inspiring to go out there
The gravel section you were on; I remember riding that section well - I missed the turn off and went over the tracks. Spent 1/2 hour looking for the trailhead and finally went back across the tracks and found the dirt road. I was worried that Cleveland would be to sketchy to ride through - turned out to be real safe and scenic because Cleveland has worked hard on their lake shore bike path system. A surprise insight for anyone planning to bike through there. Caught you using the term acoustic bike during the video - Yes there are electric guitars and acoustic guitars; and there are electric bikes and and acoustic bikes. Stands to reason. LOL
Hahah yeah at first I totally thought the trail was a railroad access road. I would have to agree. One of my favorite states to bike in is Ohio. Great routes (except the 3 mile section into Cleveland).
Fun way to revisit memories of cycling in Cleveland a few years ago... man, I remember that wind! OTET folks are really great so I'm glad they steered you to a good hotel. Looking forward to watching the next episode!
Very nice to see some long distance e-biking. Aren't too many people doing that and posting the videos. Looks to be not an issue plugging in here and there along the way.
Thanks! I absolutely love the Arkel bags I have. The front ones have been on all of my tours since 2016 and absolutely nothing wrong with them. Even after carrying a heavy battery and being abused. Can’t complain one bit.
It’s a bafang bbs02 750 watt. Capable of 1300 but for very limited time. I mostly ride between 350 and 500 watts. The battery is a custom made 50Ah from 21700 cells.

Where do you get such things done?
@@hemaccabe4292 Ebikemarketplace will make any battery and charger you want in any configuration. Opens up possibilities for long travel big time.
Dang ole Bigfoot! 😂 Thank you 🙏 Brian for sharing your journey. Stay safe. 😊
Haha yeah that was the best. Thanks for watching!

After riding 20 miles on my ebike I feel spent and my butt hurts. I couldn't imagine going more than 40 miles in a day. You're amazing!
Get a cloud nine bike seat. They are amazing
@@nathancereska8215 I already have a fancy bike seat. You can look up Day 6 bicycles. Still I’ll check out cloud nine.
I prefer a brooks leather seat. After you break it in at least.
@@bikingbrian They’re not so soft, but they are classy and you have a strong butt!
@@nathancereska8215can concur, especially if you’re older. (I have one.)
Some more nice riding and another well done video. Thanks and take care, Al
Thanks as always for watching!
Thumbs up 👍
Thank you. What is that on the front of the bike? GPS?
Fun way to revisit memories of cycling in Cleveland a few years ago... man, I remember that wind! OTET folks are really great so I'm glad they steered you to a good hotel. Looking forward to watching the next episode!
Yeah good folks over there at the OTET. I was there at 5am on one trip and it was windy then lol. Thanks for watching Tim!
Your Doing a very very very Great Job on Your TH-cam Video’s, my Friend 😊😎👍
Thanks so much for watching.
@@bikingbrianYou are Welcome 😊
Ooh Boston 😊
Good day, more nice weather. Funny knorr rice pack. Gorilla silhouette. Or was that Bigfoot?
It was totally big foot lol

Yeah, I am surprised there aren’t more. I would agree I am fortunate to have such opportunities here.
Finding electrical outlets can be a problem in some areas….
Carry a high capacity charger (e.g. Grin Satiator) and at least one long extension cord.
Awesome we watched one and two, love your videos!
Thanks so much for watching!
I always enjoy your bike tours. Keep them coming :)
Thanks so much as always for watching.
Enjoying your videos. Thanks for the ride along! 😎👍
Thanks so much for watching!
For traffic a orange flag on a flexible pole works great along with bright lights !
Brian, Always enjoy your videos, I was wodering what app you use to find such great routes
Thanks! I use google maps and ride with gps and spend a lot of time in street and satellite view choosing my routes.
Thanks Brian for your posts, enjoying this trip so far...
Thanks for watching.
Nice, Have fun.
Thanks!
Come out to Oregon! I can show you the coast route. Astoria to florence is near where I live in Portland.Ive ridden it several times.
Making good progress, Brian. The panniers you're using - how well are they holding up with all of the use they get?
Thanks! I absolutely love the Arkel bags I have. The front ones have been on all of my tours since 2016 and absolutely nothing wrong with them. Even after carrying a heavy battery and being abused. Can’t complain one bit.
Nice ride. Can you show your battery / electrical setup, or point to video where you've done that?
Ebikemarketplace builds custom batteries and chargers. You can get whatever you want. Great find for me.
I do need to do a complete video about the setup. I built my own battery out of 21700 cells.
Some inns won't allow bikes, but are ok with pets. Last time I checked, bikes don't crap, pee or bark.
if you try use a fast charger that is not made for it it can catch on fire. Don't see dogs catching on fire
Can you make a video on the set up of your bike? Type of bike, battery setup etc…
Yes! I have been trying to do this for a while now.
Just Curious, How Many Watts Is Your E-Bike Battery And Motor To?
It’s a bafang bbs02 750 watt. Capable of 1300 but for very limited time. I mostly ride between 350 and 500 watts. The battery is a custom made 50Ah from 21700 cells.
Hey Brian! Loving your travel videos. I’d like to contact you for a podcast interview and am wondering how I can best reach you. Cheers!
Thanks man. I appreciate it.
How does your butt not get sore?
Get a cloud nine seat you can ride all day. Not expensive either
Low hanging fruit yum
Totally lol.
