“The first 12 miles I used 7% of battery charge. I was using Eco and Tour (the lower of 4 assist levels) and some throttle. I hit 26 MPH with a little throttle and hit 22 MPH up a very long steep hill. Bumping the throttle for a start off the line, or up a hill is awesome,” said one Redditor who grew up on bikes.
