Andy, I know your views on mid motors and you are well entitled to them but coming from someone who once said that anyone with a mid motor needed their head examining I find the above quote a bit condescending.
To the OP, inTurbo if it’s flat you will probably get 15 miles. If hilly it will be a lot less.

The MAJOR DIFFERENCE IS, that I NEVER address someone directly, until they are rude to me first!!!!
Look back!
And if you, or anyone else, takes onboard a general comment of mine, addressed to no one personally, that sort of makes the comment tend to look far more accurate!
No smoke without fire!!
The rudeness I have received from a few here, SIMPLY DOES NOT INSPIRE SOMEONE WHO IS BEING ATTACKED, TO ANY FORM OF SILENCE!
Remember please, everyone is entitled to their own opinion!
Its a bit like politics, you may not agree, but there is never a need to get personal FIRST!
That is simply a lack of good manners if done......
I will ALWAYS try and assist a fellow Pedelecer with the truth, and mid motor bikes, until someone manages to FINALLY design one that does not put all the power from both the motor and the rider, through the same weak link, namely the chain, I will continue to point that out each and every time.
Someone, somewhere, must find a way, to achieve a mid motor design, but without that problem.
Or designing a mid motor, without the need for poor quality plastic gears inside it, that have given so many grief.
Plus on the Bosch front, they must know that they have taken money with un-serious designs, where each part is linked with a data link, so that it is as good as impossible for even a top DIYer, to repair such designs himself, batteries that make it impossible for the DIYer to even measure the SOC!
I feel that I would be failing a new member, if asked, in not bringing such a "single point of failure!" and other failures, to his/her attention.
But also being especially spurred on by the constant poor manners, poor character and rudeness, of others here.
Do not pick on any of my words in the future, pick on the person who addressed me first please.
And as I said before:-
Remember please,
everyone is entitled to their own opinion!
Do not try to muzzle me with rudeness, that is the big failure the rude ones make, time after time.
Furthermore, due to the rudeness of certain members, it has become obvious to me, that certain "mid motor" fans, want to try and hide the various weaknesses of the current mid motor designs, making it even easier for certain manufacturers to continue, going against the rules, laws and concepts contained in the EU, I remember one upset Bosch owner mentioning, making Bosch illegal in some ways.....
Have I made myself clear?
