The capacity of QWIC bikes is between 216 Wh and 360 Wh. Using the scheme on
page 27, you may easily compare different specifications off all the bikes.
The next table displays an indication of the expected optimum range based on the
eco-programme.

The most important thing is to realise which factors may influence the optimum
range. You personally influence the optimum range as well, please ask your dealer
for personal advise.
Influences on optimum range:
•
Total weight (weight b c load)
•
Resistance (wind force, tire tension, gearing, quality of road surface, inclination)
•
Level of pedal assistance
•
Driving style (switching gears and speed)
•
Outside temperature
•
Age of the battery ( battery capacity decreases with time)
