How Far Can We Ride On One Battery? | EMBN’s One Charge Challenge!

A common question we get asked is how long will an e-bike battery last for? To find out, we sent ‪@gmbn‬'s Rich Payne on an adventure to Mid Wales to see how far he could make it on a single charge!

[@rethridermtb3262]

Personally, I don't want to run out of battery on a long ride, so on those long rides, power management is a factor. On a recent ride in Colorado I rode a little over 36 miles (just under 60K) on my Canyon Spectral: ON (900 wh battery) with 4,475 feet of climbing. I did most of the ride in Eco, but did use the Trail and Turbo modes when needed. I finished with a little less than 20% left on the battery. The E-MTB lets me range further and go faster that I otherwise could, but I still like to put in a fair amount of effort myself.

[@Casualfulltime]

Good to see some Giant love. Hugely underrated bikes.

[@Celeon999A]

Dont know if many people actually do this and wether there is sort of name for that type of ebike riding already , but im trying to use the motor assistance on my Levo only when its really necessary. That means steep and technical climbs of course, but for riding beside that, ive noticed that even Eco often is actually kind of overkill and went to "idle" and rode my bike like a normal MTB for most of the time. The weight of the bike is actually much less of an issue than one might think, actually you barely notice the difference to a MTB after a while. I find it incredibly satisfying to ride an EMTB like an MTB , knowing that if things get really tough, or im just totally spent after a few hours, i still have the full power of the motor and a battery with plenty of charge left, at my disposal to get me up that climb or just home.

[@olik136]

really? I absolutely hate riding eMTBs when they are turned off. But I also have a enduro bike with soft tires and I live in a hilly region with almost no flat parts.

[@bradsanders6954]

Really? My E Mt bike weighs 53+ lbs. Riding it with the motor off is not a good time. My Amish XC bike weighs 24lbs. There is a difference. So you buy an E bike, and its satisfying to not use the E. I ride my manual roadbikes 160 miles a week which is very satisfying. The E is for fun, for me.

[@thegenuflector5791]

I have a 2022 Orbea Wild with a 625wh battery and a 500wh OEM range extender, last weekend I did 1700m vertical, 66km, and I still had a 40% battery left. I agree with the comment about that riding an ebike (or any bike) has to be done without battery savings but smart.

[@Bangbangboom51]

This full power ebike is the way to go. A few of my friend got SL ebikes but they would almost always bring an 2kg external battery(range extender) which kinda defeat the SL bikes key feature as being lighter not a little bit lighter to a full power ebike.

[@olik136]

I would generally say the same- and I have a full power 750wh eMTB. But it really depends on what you use it for. I personally never do tours that take more than half of my battery and I tend to stay in the tour mode- so an SL bike would be fine for me.. but I wouldn't buy one because they are only a bit lighter while being annoyingly more expensive..

[@cbenson513]

Really enjoyed this one! I like the idea of a range extender option even for 700-800kWh main battery bikes for all-day adventures.

[@abikeesclerosada]

I own a Brazilian ebike, Caloi is the brand, with a Shimano motor, E6100, 504 W battery. The longest I rode was 135 km with 2300 meters of elevation. I had to pedal without power some kilometers, and arrived at home with 1 km left, meaning, no battery at all. Last weekend I did 97 km with 1680 meters of elevation, and arrived with 40 km left in the battery.

[@Mtb9r]

5500 ft of climbing 38 miles and Frodo Baggins on the other side of the hill. Good times. Drained the battery on a levo in 26 miles and about 3000 feet of climbing my Husqvarna has gone 26 miles 3800 ft and I still had one bar left 630 hour batters. rocky trails eat up batteries. Happy Trails 🎉

[@daskleineM]

Currently looking to sell my regular MTB to be able to buy a E-Bike around this price tag myself, probably won't be this year, but hopefully for next season I will be riding my first E-Bike. My area is just too much climbing without a motor.

[@battlechasers]

great vid. look forward to more sub 4k bike tests. As a hardtail analogue rider, im used to all day rides in the region of 8hr 90mile rides in the peak district.. fairly flat using old railway lines like high peak and tissington trails. hardly hardcore, but distance and endurance is more key for me

[@richardprosser5026]

Last week I did the Hell of the north Cotswolds ride on a Cube SLT with the Bosch 750 motor. Including riding to and from the start point was 51 miles. And 4000ft of climbing. I’m not fit or strong in the legs but manage to ride in eco and tour mode only and came home with 32% battery left.

I'm 195cm tall, 95kg, I have 2022 Focus Thron2 with Bosch CX gen4 and 625wh battery... When I ride "gravel" trough fields it can go up to 120km far and climb about 500 - 800 meters... When I ride "forest" it's usually about 1700 - 2000 m of climbing on however long or short distance... I have the feeling that climbed meters are much more precise measurement for ebike than distance...

Hi, my Merida e-140 averages 37miles on its 630wh battery, rider 70kg but with full bike packing gear in front and rear pannier’s. I’m very happy with this and have recently purchased a spare 630wh battery which is also carried in the panniers, so with a range of a comfortable 70 miles I travel the off road byways, never been happier 🚲🔋🪫😄

[@bradsanders6954]

Pretty much, if your going for max distance and dont want to hit limp mode in the middle of no where, ECO mode has to be used a lot. As an experiment I did a 55 mile ride with 4K of climbing on my Canyon with 900WH battery. I barely used Trail mode at all, ECO was it. The pedals really have to be kept spinning for ECO mode to work well. I did it, and still had 3 full bars on battery meter when I got home. But man was I worked, really worked. Which makes me think I can get 80 miles out of the thing. -------------------------------------- Next week 6 of us drove the e bikes to a great trail system, and trail mode was used all day, another 4000' of climbing almost. Only 1.5 bars was used but really kept the bike moving all day. Guess who didnt make it 16 miles? The guy with the TREK small battery/small motor bike. And the thing was slow on climbs with never ending switchbacks. But its a lighter bike. And hes not in the best of shape.

[@gjavo6400]

Merida eOne Sixty 800 w Shimano steps E8000 with 504Wh (BT8010) battery at 89% health. I ride mostly Eco-Medium and occasional Trail mode and get about 60km/1800m elevation gain on gnarly trails. Thats more than I typically like to do...with 50km and 1500m I usually have enough :-)

[@BigSmellyRangey]

I just got back from a 56k ride with 1600m elevation and 40% battery left on my Eeb, and it too was 'only' £4k. Plus, I've got 180mm travel so can send it on the downhills. You also had 155wh more than my bike has. Try a Haibike Nduro6 next time Rich, cheap and cheerful (and heavy) they may well be but give a lot of bang for the buck.

[@hein_mcleod]

I did a 59km (900m accent) race a while ago with a 625wh battery in my older gen Stance +1. Finished with 6% left in 2h06m. 110kg rider + gear.

[@mikegreenman8939]

>did 67km on me focus sam2 with 35% battery left. But I only weigh 66 kg. Rider weight really makes a difference

[@diymasterTM]

Everything depending on your legs... You could ride more, but slower and use more legs. You could also finished half before ;) I have now emtb for one week and my record is 67km, 2411m ascent, and spend 55% of 700Wh battery.

[@stuartbayliss9251]

Range all depends on hills tackled and how long you can stay in ECO. I just did 43.5 miles / 70km on hilly isle if wight with my Cube Reaction Hybrid Pro 625. I also suspect hard tails will go further as the efficiency will translate, although 40 miles on a hard tail won’t be for everyone (the PNW Coast dropper post with suspension is the best thing I’ve done to this bike.

[@HarryKuloh]

Well there's other factors involved as well. Rider input, rider weight etc.

[@nomad-pq4yw8iy7v]

how long you can stay in eco doesn't necessarily have as much effect as people think it does

[@stuartbayliss9251]

Well okay, in reality it's more how much effort you put in versus the battery, which ECO mode caps on the bike end, but it's up to the human to put in more relative effort over the journey. I know it's taken my typical reference point of being at 50% battery and now I reach the same point at 73% battery after having ECO mode added to my options. Staying above the speed where the bike can provide any assist is actually the key to ultimate range ;-)

[@bradsanders6954]

@@nomad-pq4yw8iy7v ECO either doubles the range on my Canyon, or darn close to it. It makes a HUGE difference, But at times ECO is almost as slow as a bike with no battery or motor.

Cube stereo hpc 160 bosch 750wh, bike + rider + kit combination is +/- 105kg. Usually manage 25m elevation gain per 1% battery (in the alps).

Even on shorter rides though 2000m is no problem in mix of tour+ and emtb modes

My favourite ride in that area, which I have done a few times, is the Talgarth Black which takes in a lot of the places you featured on this ride, it has an epic climb right out of the back door from Talgarth 😊 👍 the last time I did it it was logged as 55km and 1680m of elevation on Strava. My longest recorded ride was from Monmouth out down the Wye and XC into the FoD which was 66 Km and 1090m. I ride a Vitus E-sommet VRX with Shimano EP8 and 630W Battery. I am 75Kg.

Just subscribed to your channel. After watching your "SUB £4000 GOLD" vid I decided to test and then buy a Giant Stance E + 2 ( next week - have to sort out tow bars and carrier first ). Finally... finally I am going to start my E bike mountain explorations ( in Snowdonia ). I was very interested to see how far / how long and how difficult an outing your bike was capable of doing BUT surely using the range extender just complicated the matter. I'm assuming your figures at the end included the range extender? If so, what did the standard attached 625wh battery manage? Isn't this the figure that would interest people the most? Anyway, keep up the good work. I look forward to watching more content when I know what I'm talking about.

But a was super stingy with the power assist and rode it like an analogue bike. I didn't use the battery on the road sections to and in between, only when I was close to home as I didn't know how far the battery would go.

[@bradsanders6954]

Its a matter of putting hours on the e bike, to get a feel for how far one can really go. Im slowly getting it sussed out. Some guys I ride with are scared to use anything but ECO , they get back to the truck with 75% of battery left. I figure might as well use the power some if I paid for it.

( Which is not a bad distance tbf ) Considering I am 89k and the bike is quite a heavy old lump ) I agree in your comment why ride an Ebike in eco all the time, as it is defeating the reason you got an Ebike in the first place ?

[@Zwiesel66]

Hm, he has driven 44 km and 76% of the battery capacity is gone, and now the computer is telling you that 24% battery capacity is enough for 54 km - who will find the error?🤔 If I think of my eMTB with 500W/h battery, I almost always stay in eco mode (and turned off when ever possible), a little trail mode and never trurbo mode and with 1.100m of climbing my max distance I can reach is about 50 km. To have an eMTB which is capable of 120 km and 2.500m of climbing would be perfect 🥰 For now I have to use my trusty old Vertex Rocky for those kind of tours. One thing I do not like about an eMTB is the weight (and sometimes the low ground clearance), in challenging terrain 25kg is way too much, if the bike slips or breaks out, you have to be very lucky not to crash. On a normal 9kg MTB it is totally different - it was one point for me to use flat paddles on my eMTB.

[@ianscottuk]

What % was Rich at by the end? And how far round would Rich on his own with a hardtail make it? And.... can you do a video where you ride it sparingly and see if you can go the full distance?

[@cornish_boy6235]

Think I can reasonably get 40 miles out of my trance with the 800w battery but I’m around 115kg so if you were being careful and smaller than me I’d think 60 miles would be doable.

[@olik136]

I think those 160Nm motors are 1000W and therefore don't fall under the category that is shown on this channel- you would need a licence plate for it and so on.. the limit in EU/GB is mostly 250W (also no throttle and max. 25km/h)

Being a giant, water ingress will kill it before the end of the ride. Then you'll have a battle with giant uk to get anyrhing done about it. Yeah, been there.

Last summer, wearing my full face helmet, a wasp got me in my upper lip.

[@MarioGoatse]

How many other brands use Yamaha?

[@Nickmann28]

How big is the main battery?

BKXC did 57mi and 7500' on his Ripmo a few year's back, he wanted to see how far he could go until he couldn't 🤷‍♂

We are in Great Britain MILES...KM means nothing to me 😅

[@jeremybub]

We really miss Chris!

[@kat0197]

And now the question is. Can you drove this bike with flat battery.???

[@CurvedSlightly]

Did you swap your hair for a beard?

[@djmclencio]

PEOPLE !!! Don't be like this guy!!! Don't push the battery to the limit !!! It is very bad for the cells !!!! Charge the battery before 20% if it is possible... !!! The range of the bosch battery gen 4 smart system is better

[@michaelbatey348]

Wow 4k for a bike that's got the spec of a 1500 quid full suspension really not that impressed.

[@General_Crock]

After watching for 5 minutes with no mention of the bike's primary battery size I stopped watching. Useless video without it- you guys are usually better than that.

[@raziel8321]

Such videos are useless in my opinion. Nice to look at, but without meaning. It would be more beneficial to look at it physically and measure the current in different situations. There are so many factors that determine how long the battery lasts. Above all, the person determines differences of up to 300% and everyone drives differently. For example, I can easily travel 160km with 1200 meters of altitude on my bike, while others have had the battery empty after just 90km on the same route/ride. Why? Because I made better use of the gears and support levels.

could you please speak slower so we (from other countries and slightly deaf) can understand what you're saying :)

[@garethrobinson2275]

Settings, additional settings, premium settings, speed 0.75. Sorted.

[@fuckinellitsraymo]

I found this video irritating.

I have done over 70 miles on my scott patron with a 750w battery from Bosch. Still have some juice left too.
