VIDEO: my girlfriend destroys me uphill with e-bike

[kraeuterbutter]

always when i go cycling with my girlfriend, she gets the e-bike and i take some motor-less bike..

so its more fair

the ebike runs up to 40km/h
which makes it hard to me, to keep up..
however: driving in the slipstream of my girlfriend which goes in front makes it possible to get some nice speeds..

so we managed once to went with 38km/h average for 10km distance, me following her very close with the motorless MTB

on the video it was more a ride for joy..
at least for her

the bikes motor is rated with 180Watt

Allen.

What i was going to ask too. And nice video. I guess your motor is exceeding 180w by a long long way.

Hi...
camera was a Fuji Finpex F100fd
so a pocket-camera
mounted: nowhere, i held it in the hand (and was for that driving everything only with hand and the handlebar, in the other hand the camera)

the place: yes, it is Austria..

it was on the "3-country-edge", the point where the vorders of
AUSTRIA, Hungary and Slovenia meet

(thats the monument on that point, where my girlfriend is climbing at)


for the motor: yes, it is rated with 180Watt
the controller is a 14A controller, so at maximum there are about 400Watt coming out of the motor

max speed is 40km/h with this setup..
but as i have shown once: with a little booster pack it goes faster as well:
YouTube - Bafang Speedtest 50km/h

nevertheless: normaly i need about 3-4Wh/km
so, with 1,98kg light 7,8Ah Lipo from my rc-plane i can go about 100km from a single charge (with some hills at the route)
