      My maximum was 80 km and 1900m ascend roundtrip. Afterwards battery was empty but i (my ass) wonˋt go any further.

      nice, would like to have some similar trails nearby. did a simple loop this morning 28km , +1600m elevation and steepest klimb was around 20% gradient and longest was like 15% for +/-1.5km and had 46% left on my 400wh battery when i got home . kept it on eco+ and boost for the hardest klimbs and im like 106kg heavy. longest run was around 70km and still had a litle over 1 bar of batterylife left

      Yesterday I did 96km (60 miles) and over 1500m over the Burma Road and up Cairngorm Mountain...icy sleet at the end, but second battery is amazing (my a$$ cheeks say different today...ouch)

    Made this exact trip apart from the Buttermere incline and decent when I was a kid around 37 years ago... I was in the Rough Stuff Fellowship and we travelled down to Barrowon in Furnace for the annual AGM.. I can remember camping at Ennerdale YH.. we carried are bikes up the tops without the panniers and saddle bags... we then had to go back and to bring them up again.. I can still remember the hikers laughing at us struggling.... but will never forget their faces as we flew past them downhill... great days.. just in case your wondering I rode Claud Butler Majestic with upgraded wheels.. super champion rims, double butted spokes with Campagnolo large flange hubs..

    I’m on the Giant E-trance SX size XL, im 295lbs, my bike is 55lbs plus gear and I brought an extra battery in my camel pack so maybe 365lbs total. On one 500wh battery I did 18.5 miles and 3,600ft of elevation on eco mode before I swapped batteries! We did 5150ft and 26 miles that morning. That’s just awesome! My friend has the blue E-Trance and she’s 150lbs including all her gear and she did the 5150ft on one battery on power level 2 of the 5 power levels and still had a whole battery led light when she was done. We both did parts of the Troy Lee single track at skyline in Corona, Ca.. simply amazing what these bikes can do!
