The range issue has always been a major headache for electric bicycle users. To increase the range of an electric bicycle, the first step is to develop good riding habits. When starting, climbing slopes, or riding against the wind, try to use the power assistance function as much as possible to avoid high current discharge, which can effectively reduce energy consumption. It is also crucial to control the speed reasonably. Generally speaking, the economic speed of an electric bicycle is around 20-25 kilometers per hour. Maintaining this speed during the ride can save the most electricity.
In addition, choosing the right battery and charger can also improve the range. Compared with lead-acid batteries, lithium-ion batteries have a higher energy density and a longer service life, which can provide more sustained power for the vehicle. At the same time, using a matching charger to avoid overcharging and undercharging is also helpful for extending the battery life and improving the range. For users who are going on long trips, they can consider carrying a spare battery just in case.
