Now to the question, I tend to get about 9-11 miles before the battery gets down to 1 bar out of the 5 on the display, if I'm just using mode 3. The most I was able to get was 20.1 miles, before it turned off on me, going on mode 2 about 95% of the time. Had to call someone to pick me up because it's extremely hard to pedal these things when off. Also, this is just me using the throttle and doing absolutely 0 pedaling since I now have some neuropathy issues.
I am 180lbs and in Colorado so unsure if elevation plays a facture in all this. The path I take with my bike is usually on a trail next to a river here with a pretty nice surface and not too much elevation gain or anything on the trail.
But if you're not folding a lot, then it's fine.
I get about 8-10mph going uphill, with some effort put in but much less effort / faster than a regular bike, and I don't feel as sweaty getting in
Flies 20-25+ downhill. The suspension is nice, but you still have to watch out for bottoming out the front fork in a pothole.
My only complaint from their original version was no front brake, which it looks like they fixed.
It zips along on the flats and flat out flies down hill (check your brakes first...)
Agreed with Tusanma that the battery life is probalby closer to the 15 mile range, but I get 3-5 days of my 2 mile round trip commute before I charge out of fear of running out.
Only time it did run out was when I forgot to turn it off after getting home.
Cons:
It's pretty much impossible to pedal when the motor is dead.
Heavy, folding is more for storage/transport than for carrying into office. I walk it into the office, but at least it's so small I can turn it around in the elevator.
Motor is not the strongest for uphill (great for flats - I can't even pedal fast enough to provide my own pedal power when the motor is on)
Battery indicator jumps down 2 bars under load, then back up when flat
Short for my 6' self (legs look silly) but since you don't need full pedal power it's ok
I'd 100% buy it again for my uses at this price.

We have 2 of these for me and the wife. The ones without the front brakes. Not a deal breaker for us but the weight is
