    • @star-k
      @star-k  Рік тому

      It's not the fastest up hills, it can drop to as low as 8 mph on a steep incline. But it does offer greater climbing power than say my super73 s2.

      @@OperationEndGame well it will easily exceed 30mph, and hovers comfortably at 33, however my model does vary slightly from the models some people have been receiving on orders. I purchased mine used and it has black bars rather than chrome, a different headlight and a few other very small differences to the model shared on the site now. It could be possible that this one is an earlier model with a different tune if you are getting different results? However I haven't seen another in the wild to compare it to. From what I understand, mine is stock.

However since the battery gauge only has 4 bars you never really know when it's going to die. You just know that you have below 25% battery. I would say that 40-45 miles on a single charge is the real world range. If I ever do kill the battery and get stranded I'll be sure to upload that.
