Ride 4 was experimenting with Map settings. I will be having the shock and fork resprung for my weight and riding ability in the near future. Long story short, the WP suspension works very very well, is very very plush, balanced, and good for about a 160# A lever enduro racer. Ride 3 was intended for dialing in the suspension. I believe this is an accurate statement if speeds are kept under 45MPH in Map1. Alta claims a 60 mile range for the EXR in city riding conditions. This suggests that when cruising around 40MPH, the bike has a lot of range. I still had about 20% of charge remaining. When I got back to the house, I had only used 1 bar on the battery indicator. I got on the pavement, switched to Map1, and rode back to the house maintaining a speed of 40-45MPH. At about 20 miles into the ride, I had around 25% of charge remaining. I was going flat out hitting 60+ MPH in the sand washes, and 76MPH (Indicated top speed on the pavement. Ride 2 was a mix of paved road and sand washes in Map2. I believe this is because the bike is constantly regen breaking when not on the throttle. Ironically I only used 10-15% of the battery at this stage. That said, the first 10 or 11 miles of the ride, were the steepest climbs and descents. ![]() Did a total of 38 miles, had just a bit of charge left. At the end of this ride (turn around point) I had right at 50% of indicated battery charge left. I was either climbing or descending the whole time, and it took me right at about 2 hours to the turn around point (19 miles). ![]() Top speed in some sections was about 27MPH. (I will explain the Map settings later) It was really tight and technical terrain. I traveled a total of 38 miles on this ride in the Map1 setting. The first ride was done at Carol Summit in central Nevada. I will break down each ride, with the type of riding I was doing, and range traveled. As of this posting date, I have 4 rides on the Alta EXR.
