OK I'm 6ft2 and 105kg(!).

I've never been a cyclists physique. So I've always carried my weight as dead weight. I hate full emtbs. They just feel so numb on descents hence me wanting a EXE.

Rangewise in eco - how heavy are you and roughly how much mileage/climbing do you get out of yours?

Range is tricky to predict due to so many variables, including rider weight, motor settings etc. But for what it's worth, I'm 85kg, and in max mode with assist set to 170% and max power set to 300w,i can get about 2200 feet climbing over about 12 or 13 mile, that's with continental Kryptotal and xynotal tyres.

I don't really know my range on eco too accurately as if I'm trying to get max range I'm often riding it with no assist at all on the flat bits, or even shallow hills, but for what it's worth I have my eco set to 50% assist with a max power of 80w, and I reckon it would go to 4000 feet of climbing, possibly more, maybe even 5000 feet. But using eco on those settings is hard work.

I rode about 4.5 hours in eco with a bunch of non-e-bikes. It lasts a long time when riding like that. I’ve had it a month and haven’t run out, and I’m about 216lbs. If you’re riding alone 2 hour type rides, it’s great. Riding with analog bikes it’s great. Riding with other e-bikes. Not the bike.

210-215 lbs. The range on eco shows anywhere from 60 to 80+ miles on my bike. I can ride 2 to 3 rides from 100%, 10-12 miles each. I usually don't charge it that much. For me, the bike has more range than I do, even on mid. I am riding the same trails I rode on my normal bike, but now I can make an extra lap, or another 5 to 10 miles depending on how I am feeling. 20 miles for me is a lot, which takes a couple hours, and about 40% battery. Unless you want to ride on full power all the time, the EXE has plenty of range.
