• Technical condition of your Pedelec
Make sure the tyre pressure is correct. If you ride
your bike with too little air in the tyres, this can
signicantly increase the rolling resistance. This
applies to smooth surfaces in particular, e.g.
tarmac. If the ground is uneven, as on a country
path or gravel track, a somewhat reduced tyre pres-
sure can lead to less rolling resistance. This also
increases the risk of a puncture. Please consult
your specialist cycle shop about this. The distance
you can travel also decreases if the brakes are
rubbing.
• Battery capacity
The current battery capacity (➠ Chapter 7.4.2
“Checking the battery capacity”).
• Topography
You pedal harder when riding uphill. This is
detected by the power sensor which then allows
the motor to work harder.
Under ideal conditions, the range may reach
120km with the 11 Ah battery and 180km with the
15.5 Ah battery. These ranges have been achieved
under the conditions listed below.

6.4 Riding your Pedelec eciently
You can monitor and inuence the cost of your journeys
with the Pedelec yourself. You can reduce your consump-
tion and therefore costs by following the tips for increas-
ing the range.
The operating costs for power assist with an 11 Ah battery
are calculated as follows:
• A new battery costs roughly 599euros.
• Throughout the total service life of a battery, you
can cover roughly 80 kilometres with one charge
cycle.
• You can charge the battery roughly 1,100 times.
• 1,100 charging cycles x 80km = 88,000 km
• 599euros: 88,000km = 0.68 euro cents per
kilometre.
• You use roughly 0.565kWh to lly charge the
battery. Assuming a unit price of 23.5euro cents
per kWh, it costs you 13.27euro cents to lly
charge the battery.
• To cover the average range of 80 kilometres, it
costs you 67.67 euro cents.
• This means the cost of consumption and the bat-
tery is a maximum of 0.85euro cents/km.
The sample calculation has been carried out based on
German energy prices. The operating costs may vary
depending on the energy prices you pay.
