Shad0z Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 (edited) Post the typical effective range you get out of your Sherman, make it short, simple, and include: - Weight - Speeds - Riding mode This is so people can easily find the actual range of the sherman, I have a little idea though, I could mess around with some graphs so it'd be even easier to see what range you'd actually get out of it for different situations and different weights Edited April 14, 2021 by Shad0z 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shad0z Posted April 14, 2021 Author Share Posted April 14, 2021 Weight: 92kg Speeds: 32-42kph average Range: 100km 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shad0z Posted April 20, 2021 Author Share Posted April 20, 2021 92kg Medium mode, this time I disabled tiltback at 43kph and went around 50kph usually as well as riding more aggressively, this brought my 100km range down by a whole 20km to 80km, going faster ain't worth it, gonna keep my tiltback on, trying soft mode next 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you tried raising it to get more miles? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tire pressure is factor but not that dominant compare to how "agresively" you acelerate and rider weight. I can ride my "loop" with 60% left at home or more "fun" riding same route and go home with 22% battery. Tire pressure have hard inpact on nimblenes and confort. More pressure = more nimble cons is you feel every hole/stone on road negatively. +-4 psi is not measurable impact on range. In extreme example 17psi vs 44psi diference in range because rolling resistance be big. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kekafuch Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 I weigh 205 lbs. first charge got me 117 kms till one bar beeping and experienced the tilt. Second charge 120 kms. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m also sure that the street tire is more efficient than than off road one. There so many factors to how far you can go. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shad0z Posted April 25, 2021 Author Share Posted April 25, 2021 I'm currently trying out soft mode, which feels hella sketchy at first, but once you get used to it, it's like floating on a cloud, mostly using it to test if I'll get more range out of it, will update y'all on my findings 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm running at around 45-50psi which I wouldn't go any higher than, but I also do think those tire pressures are a good sweetspot for my weight, I don't understand how people can ride these things at my weight or heavier and do shit like 35 PSI, feels deflated lmao, too many downsides, running at higher PSI gets more range, less tire wear, less chance of tire popping off the rim issues etc, and better grip and higher stability, so there's really no reason not to, except for shock absorption, but I don't have an issue with that here at all.

Kezeal Posted April 27, 2021 Share Posted April 27, 2021 Weight: 120kg Speeds: 20-30 kmh Riding mode: Hard Range: 100km The only time I tested range was when I had just bought the wheel, and I had pretty much exactly 100km on the screen when I rode the low battery beeps home. There was no tiltback yet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shad0z Posted April 28, 2021 Author Share Posted April 28, 2021 I tried out SOFT MODE, the range DID NOT IMPROVE I'm going back to medium, range was actually ever so slightly lower with soft mode lmao I ain't messing around with that, same speeds same everything basically 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitebeard Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 - Weight 91 kg (200 lbs) - Speeds 40 kph (24 mph) - Riding mode medium I’ve ridden about 25 miles and battery is showing 91 Volts (66%). Top speed was around 60kph (37mph). So I guess I’m considered as a heavy + speedy rider around town. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mantraguy Posted September 29, 2021 Share Posted September 29, 2021 (edited) I track, with a reasonable amount of detail, all of my rides as well as the amount of energy (Wh) that go back into the wheel. I'm 134 lbs, so riding weight (with gear) is generally in the range of 148-152lb (68kg) - maybe a little less in summer and a little more in winter. I've only had my Sherman since Aug 12th but since then I've done ~2500km. My longest ride so far was 136.32km which used 2625Wh and finished at 82.5V. That one averaged 19.25Wh/km. That ride was slower on the climbs and not really fast overall (riding alongside a few cyclists). Between all rides, I seem to average about 20.25Wh/km, and range from about 17.1 on slow or long-range rides (where I'm consciously conserving energy) to hard, fast solo rides (with lots of hard acceleration and braking, really pushing the wheel hard on climbs etc.) that average 23.5Wh/km. My average cruising speed on those rides is probably around 45-50km/h (30MPH); top speed so far is just short of 60km/h. Most rides around here are reasonably hilly, with total climbing of about 1200m per 100km. Sorry - for me, that's a "short and simple" post. :-D Edited September 29, 2021 by Mantraguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crowheel Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 I am 79kg. rider and I do delivery service(Glovo) every day in my town. So every day i traverse 100 km until I get beeps. Iam home and finish with 105 km. Maybe I can squeeze 10 more but gentle driving. You have to consider that is hard town riding with lots of acceleration, hills and braking. My tire is 2.3 bar. Soon I am planning to try with 3.0 bar and I will post result. Also my plan is soon to do range test on open flat road just to see how mutch kilometers can I squeeze of this one charge. I hope 150 km with average of 30km/h. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

APGSDL Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 I've just ridden the first charge of the Max since it was delivered. Rider 70KG Mode Medium Terrain mostly roads with small amount of off-road (Lots of stops and starts though as I rode almost all on paths with lots of road crossings to do) Riding mostly 15-30mph I stopped at 120 miles with the battery at 16% with no beeps or warnings. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phi1osopher Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 (edited) Sherman Max I weigh 225lbs (with gear) 25mph (intentionally slow for range test) Flat terrain, mostly roads, with a few dirt trails 80 mile range.

Xodarap1 Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 (edited) I don’t live in or near any city. 1600+ miles on the shermax. Riding weight w/gear/pack: 230 lbs. 5’ 11”, 55 yrs old. Kenda 262 = 38 PSI. Mostly roads with moderate hills, some dirt trails. At 23 mph average, no wind = 75 - 80 miles. At 33 mph average, no wind = 45 - 50 miles. Riding faster (37 mph average) and really mashing it, I can easily drain the battery to where I really don’t care to risk riding it after 35 miles. Into a headwind, even less. This is why I won’t even consider any other wheel, ..except maybe the commander. For my commutes and adventures, without range, no other feature or option matters to me.. cuz I’d be walking.. with a wheel.

And the second run on the city asphalt road was 145 km. EUC started alarm sound on 140 km, so I stoped run and conntinued on a city bus. My best runs on Gotway Monster was about 80-85 km, so Sherman Max is much better runner. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
