All uphill
Still rolling along

Four months now with the Genesis ebike and I'm delighted. I've ridden about 700km on it and, predictably, I'm making a few changes. The saddle has been changed for a Brooks B17, and now the Somerset lanes are mucky I need to do something about the mudguards.
This is after 30km.
The mudguard does a good job of keeping my feet clean, but allows all the muck onto the battery and motor. I'll be adding flaps.
Range is great. I normally ride on setting one of three and use settings two and three freely when hills appear. 50km uses about half the battery, so if be comfortable planning 70km days on tour, and would expect to get to 100km with care.
