What is reach?

The range of an e-bike describes how far you can ride on a full battery charge before the battery needs to be recharged. It is a crucial factor for mobility and flexibility in everyday life and on longer tours. The e-bike range depends on various factors, including the weight of the rider, the topography, the riding style and additional loads such as luggage or a bike trailer. Modern e-bikes offer an impressive range that makes it possible to cover longer distances without recharging. The e-bike battery range has improved significantly in recent years, and thanks to the increasing number of e-bike charging stations, it is now easier than ever to cover long distances with an e-bike.

Goodbye car: How giving up your car protects the climate – and how it can be achieved with an e-bike
