****Performance Report****

I measured out a 1 mile loop. The terraing is extremely smooth asphault. It's ideal conditions minus a little wind. With the 10ah 24v sla pack, I got 5.5 good miles out of it and it died at 5.75 miles. I was able to limp back and finish the 6th mile. Average speed was about 10mph and avaerage mile times were about 5:30-6:00. Temps were about 105 controller, 90 motor, and the batteries were ambient. I don't know what top speed is, but on a fully charged pack it's probably 20-25mph. It seems like it's haulin when you're riding it.

I had a more detailed, much longer post made up but I lost it all when my browser crashed.

Here's the video. It's after 4 miles, so most of the top end is gone. I edited the video my way.

Photobucket blocked my video with copywrite, and I'm sure youtube would, so here ya go on imageshack.
