    7k while using it to the fullest within safety reasons, I'd struggle to get less than 5km range if trying to deplete battery.

    The other day I did a 6 mile ride on them (about 10km) and got where i was going with about 70% left on the battery. I then did that same ride but in the opposite direction after charging the board and ended with about 4% left. It really just depends on the hills and wind speed when you're riding. The most I've gotten from a single ride was about 10 miles.

    My daily commute to work is about 13km (8mi). It's mixed terrain so I use AT on my BGT. If I ride in ECO the whole way (occasional FAST for inclines) It gets there in the red %, but once I let the battery settle, I'm usually back to about 30% still left in the tank.

    I'm about 90-95kg (204lbs).

    Ideally if you have to ride more than 10km (6mi) on a BGT without being able to charge it - go with street wheels. I think I'm pushing it at 13km (8mi) on AT.

    I recently rode 12 miles on my cgt AT and still had 3/4 battery life.
    I would rather get less Milage on my AT’s than further distance on street wheels. AT’s give a Rolls Royce feel to the ride that I’d miss using street wheels. That’s my individual preference.
    Hey - enjoy the board and the joy it brings.

    I'd be lucky to get 7 miles with the AT setup in fast mode. I'm about 210lbs and that's on mostly flat terrain. I've found that the 110mm Slick Revolution wheels aren't a bad happy medium, getting about 10 miles on hilly terrain with those and can still shoot across a park if need be.

    Perhaps I’m getting better mileage as a result of the following.
    I weigh 60lbs less, at 150lbs.
    In Manhattan, NYC I’ve found roads to circle and return home that are mostly downhill.
    I apply sleight brakes going downhill.
    I posture myself for minimum wind resistance.
    I watch the way ahead and plot a path of least board resistance.
    With that said, I enjoy the ride. I find a flow that feels effortless. Each time I ride I display a better “ride talent.” My muscles, nerves and positioning discover subtle changes that make the board lighter and more efficient.
    I hope that helps or at least entertains. I love talking eskating.

    All the best
