Hi, Modbury,

I live in south Devon too, perhaps we can get together for rides. I have a BH E-Motion 700C Deluxe which I think is the same motor as yours so should get up those hills around Modbury.

Have now done over 1300 miles on my bike mainly back and forth to plymouth a round trip of 30miles. I am getting about 90miles per charge against when I first bought it of 30miles. This is due to I hope getting fitter and only using the power when going up steep hills. I have not yet come across a hill that it will not go up. Overall very happy with the bike

That is an amazing range Modbury, and a real tribute to your fitness now in that hilly area. Well done, and as I remarked earlier, very much the right bike for that territory.
