4.1 Range
The number of kilometres you can cycle under ideal conditions and with a fully charged
battery pack lies within a range of about 95 kilometres. The action radius depends largely on
the cycling programme and the assistance level. As the battery ages, the action radius
decreases appreciably.
Other factors that adversely affect the action radius are listed in paragraph 4.2.
