Regen Ride Data, 66% Recovery

I didn’t hear any audio. Can you clarify that there was no pedaling involved during the tests?

I pedaled the climb. It is a 55lb bike with 2.6 front and 2.5 rear dh tires. I do not build these to avoid pedaling; I build them because I can pedal. I see your point though, I could have been clearer. In addition, my bad with the audio, still trying to figure out the best format. I have over 1200 of these tests. Maybe I added about 50Wh in pedaling.

So if you had really strong legs, and you could use zero watts uphill or even regen, then using the same logic you’d have infinite % recovery? I think you need to adjust for the human contribution of the hill climb.

I would love to see details on how you built those motors into your wheels.
seriously.. like, itching to know more about that.
