My total is 85 miles in one day, but I'd have happily given up at 60. I only carried on as 'I'd come this far' .... haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian (Speedyfeet) also always has poor range numbers when tests his wheels. I get an easy (always, regardless of how fast I ride) 30 miles on my 820wh MSuper, and have gotten over 35 miles. So you can see why my expectations are closer to 60 when I have twice the battery capacity with my new MSuper. My riding weight is 170 pounds.

Well England is higher in the latitude so they have to go uphill. lol Just kidding. Maybe the US is hacking the GPS satellite and reporting incorrect position to fool the rest of the world?

Scully Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 Hahaha... I think it's to do with the temperatures here...... brrrr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LanghamP Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 This is insane. I did my first 15 mile total yesterday (two 7 mile trips) and I was sore enough that I had trouble sleeping last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is why I like wheels with long range capability - I really enjoy long rides Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvenOdd Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 I love doing long range trips. My shortest trips are probably around 15 miles now. I am 230lb and rode 50 miles on one charge with my ACM 1300wh and had 13% left (37 miles in one day, and 13 the day after). I generally cruise around the 15mph range. I tend to slow down quite a bit up hills...still scarred from the airwheel days of being thrown because they didn't have the power to carry me up hills well. These wheels continue to impress me. Edit: I have noticed that outside temp definitely affects my battery life. When I ride in 50 degree weather the battery life is almost cut in half compared to when I ride in 80 degree weather.

Given your weight, those are impressive numbers. I've only gotten about 45 miles on my 1300wh ACM, although my average speed was closer to 20mph. I do love my ACM.

I have not done any trips longer than 20 miles at that speed, but I did notice that it ate up the battery at a much faster rate. One of my riding buddies did 40 miles on a ACM 820wh which I found really impressive. He is in that 170-180 pound range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
