to less rolling resistance. At the same time, the risk
of a puncture increases. Please consult your spe-
cialist cycle shop about this. The distance you can
travel also decreases if the brakes are rubbing.

• Topography
You pedal harder when riding uphill. This is de-
tected by the power sensor which then allows the
motor to work harder.
Under ideal conditions, the range may reach 130 km with
the 11 Ah battery, 180 km with the 15 Ah battery and
205 km with the 17 Ah battery. These ranges have been
achieved under the conditions listed below.

9.3 Riding your Pedelec eciently
You can monitor and inuence the cost of your journeys
with the Pedelec yourself. You can reduce your consump-
tion and therefore costs by following the tips for increas-
ing the range.
The operating costs for power assist with an 11 Ah battery
are calculated as follows:
• A new battery costs roughly 599euros.
• Throughout the total service life of a battery, you
can cover roughly 80 kilometres with one charge
cycle.
• You can charge the battery roughly 1,100 times.
• 1,100 charging cycles x 80km = 88,000km.
• 599euros: 88,000km = 0.68cents / km.
• You use roughly 0.565kWh to lly charge the bat-
tery. Assuming a unit price of 20cents / kWh, it
costs you 11.3cents to lly charge the battery.
• It costs you 0.14 cents to cover the average range
of 80km.
• This means the cost of consumption and the bat-
tery is a maximum of 0.82cents / km.
This sample calculation is based on German energy prices.
The operating costs may therefore be dierent in locations
where other energy prices apply.
9.4 Warranty and service life
The Impulse centre motor is a durable maintenance-ee
drive. It is a wear part with a two-year warranty. As their
power outputs are higher, wear parts such as the drive
and brakes are subject to higher loads than they would be
on a normal bike, causing increased wear.
