So...... I likely did my most efficient ride today.

1313 vert mtrs, 49km 600wh 28% battery left when I finished.

That works put to 310wh/1000mtr vert.

What's your best wh/1000mtr vert.

Means little unless you factor in total weight uplifted ( rider & bike ), time taken, terrain ridden, tyre pressures, temp and about 50 other factors which all drain the battery. It’s almost impossible to get a like for like comparison outside of a test lab dyno rig.

Sorry not being negative about your endeavours but I do tend to take all Wh/m figures as being a personal only “best “. Always fascinates me how so many YouTubers all discuss how wonderful X Brand bikes motor is so much efficient where in truth whether the rider had lunch or not is enough to sway the results.

Its just interesting to see what others are achieving.
 
You definitely need like say before, the bike weight and yours, bike travel front/rear, to be able to have something to compare.

I would also like to say that vert meter - elevation - does not mean much in real world. People like to share this number but the impact on range really also depend on the %age incline. A pretty steep one is gonna drain the bike way more than another less steep, even if it is way shorter.
 
This was on my old Trek Fuel EXe with a TQhpr50 & 360wh battery, mostly all trail mode. Mullet wheels, Assegai / DHR DD, Zeb, coil shock.

So this works out to 1187m with a 360wh, or 303wh/1000wh, all singletrack. I did finish with some battery left though, so actually a little better than that.

I had rides with that same set-up where I got <50% of that range. I figure it just depends on the trails....
