26 miles and 4600ft of tough climbing. Brilliant natural descents...rocky gnarly and dry.
Battery empty at 24 miles so last 2 miles on leg power.
Cracking day and first ride to empty the battery.

On full "race burn", 17-18 miles is about the limit on the Pivot battery (and when I say race, I mean balls out race pace). On technical terrain with lots of climbing, it's about 20-25 miles depending on how much of a hurry I'm in. I'm hoping that Shimano and Pivot can come up with a drop-in option to upgrade to a 700-750 Wh battery when they're available.

Great bike! Hired one for a day on the Long Mynd last summer. Some (a lot) of battery/error code problems, but when it worked it was awesome.

Thats exactly what im getting...20-25 miles 3-4000ft climbing.

Im hoping for the same thing too...a drop in 700wh unit. Id be all over that.

In our ebike group, two of the lads have Levos with 700's in...
One lad has a Focus on the 360wh battery...hes fit as a butchers dog and can get over 20 miles with us lot on it. He switches it off on the flat bits
