If I ride at 20mph then I get about 20 miles range. At 15mph I get 31 mile range. Also if he goes with a geared hub then when the battery does run out he won't have the motor dragging him down. That's with a 48v 1200watt geared hub motor. Hope this helps
Thanks for the info. The group generally moves along at a fair pace. Once we get out of MUP's and into open country, it's a paceline wherever possible. On the flats about 24 mph+ and on hills, it's who can get to the top first.
