Bafang mid drive is installed

And I’ve ridden it enough times to come up with a best route to get to and back from Costco.  Still working on determining what the range the battery has.  So far, I had to pedal it the last 1/2 mile, as the battery level went from 50% to 25% within 4 miles, and then died multiple times when using anything except the lowest level of assistance. A manual from Bafang would be useful.

Later got a video, of the display blanking out.  They then let me know of a battery level meter on the battery, itself. And that the console isn’t reliable?

aug20 now keeping track of odometer readings in relation to the 4 LED on the battery, see if they correlate. 

November 2021:  have settled on a range of 50 miles per charge. 

10Sept20: Last charge got to slightly over 42 miles, virtually all on level 1 assist
