EbikeMetrics

Numbers, not adjectives

A spec database built from manufacturers' own pages, a state-by-state e-bike law tracker with sources and verification dates, and battery certification status recorded per model. Every figure carries the page it came from and the date we read it.

Watt-hours per claimed mileA bicycle wheel with 86 spokes, one for each of the 86 e-bikes in the watt-hours-per-claimed-mile analysis, laced three-cross. Each spoke's thickness and colour show that model's watt-hours per claimed mile, from 6.2 to 18; the median is 11.2. A paper tape beside the wheel totals the exclusion funnel: 113 models tracked, less 15 for data doubt, 8 with no battery capacity and 4 with no range claim, leaving 86.Velotric Velotric Tempo — 6.2 Wh/miRide1Up CF Racer1 — 6.3 Wh/miHimiway Himiway C1 Kids — 7.2 Wh/miAventon Level 4 ADV — 7.3 Wh/miAventon Level 4 ADV Step-Through — 7.3 Wh/miAventon Soltera 2.5 — 7.5 Wh/miAventon Current ADV — 7.6 Wh/miAventon Current EXP — 7.6 Wh/miAventon Ramblas ADV — 7.9 Wh/miHeybike Ranger 3.0 Pro — 8 Wh/miHeybike Venus — 8 Wh/miLectric eBikes XP Lite2 — 8.3 Wh/miLectric eBikes XP Lite2 Long-Range — 8.4 Wh/miVelotric Velotric Discover M — 8.4 Wh/miVelotric Velotric Summit 2 — 8.4 Wh/miAventon Aventure M — 8.6 Wh/miHeybike Hybrid — 8.6 Wh/miVelotric Velotric Fold 1 Plus — 8.9 Wh/miVelotric Velotric Breeze 1 Cruiser — 9 Wh/miRide1Up Roadster v3 — 9 Wh/miHeybike Mars 3.0 — 9.6 Wh/miVelotric Velotric Discover 2 — 9.7 Wh/miAventon Level 4 REC — 9.8 Wh/miAventon Level 4 REC Step-Through — 9.8 Wh/miLectric eBikes XP4 750 — 9.9 Wh/miLectric eBikes XP4 750 Step-Thru — 9.9 Wh/miLectric eBikes XP4 Step-Thru — 10 Wh/miLectric eBikes XP4 — 10 Wh/miRide1Up TrailRush — 10.1 Wh/miRide1Up Prodigy v2 — 10.1 Wh/miHimiway A3 / Urban Electric Commuter Bike ST — 10.3 Wh/miHimiway B3 / Foldable Electric Commuter Bike — 10.3 Wh/miAventon Level 3 — 10.5 Wh/miAventon Level 3 Step-Through — 10.5 Wh/miHimiway Himiway D5 2.0 — 10.6 Wh/miVelotric Velotric GoMad — 10.7 Wh/miVelotric Velotric Nomad 2X Full Suspension Fat Tire — 10.7 Wh/miVelotric Velotric Nomad 2 Fat Tire — 10.9 Wh/miVelotric Velotric Fold 1 — 11.1 Wh/miRad Power Bikes Radster Road — 11.1 Wh/miRad Power Bikes Radster Trail — 11.1 Wh/miLectric eBikes XPress2 Commuter — 11.2 Wh/miLectric eBikes XPress2 Cruiser — 11.2 Wh/miAventon Level 2 — 11.2 Wh/miAventon Level 2 Step-Through — 11.2 Wh/miAventon Aventure 3 — 11.3 Wh/miAventon Aventure 3 Step-Through — 11.3 Wh/miHeybike ALPHA — 11.3 Wh/miRad Power Bikes RadRunner — 11.3 Wh/miRad Power Bikes RadRunner Plus — 11.3 Wh/miRad Power Bikes RadExpand 5 Plus — 12 Wh/miHimiway C3 / Cargo — 12 Wh/miHimiway D5 Pro / All-terrain Electric Fat Bike — 12 Wh/miHimiway D5 Pro ST / All-terrain Electric Fat Bike — 12 Wh/miHimiway D5 ST(Zebra ST) / All-terrain Electric Fat Bike — 12 Wh/miRad Power Bikes RadWagon 5 — 12 Wh/miHimiway D5(Zebra) / All-terrain Electric Fat Bike — 12 Wh/miRad Power Bikes RadWagon — 12 Wh/miHimiway D7 / Full Suspension Electric Hunting Bike — 12 Wh/miLectric eBikes XP Trike2 750 eTrike — 12 Wh/miLectric eBikes XPeak2 High-Step — 12 Wh/miLectric eBikes XPeak2 High-Step Long-Range — 12 Wh/miLectric eBikes XPeak2 Step-Thru — 12 Wh/miLectric eBikes XPeak2 Step-Thru Long-Range — 12 Wh/miVelotric Velotric Fold 1 Lite — 12.2 Wh/miAventon Abound LR — 12.2 Wh/miAventon Abound SR — 12.2 Wh/miLectric eBikes XP Trike2 eTrike — 12.5 Wh/miVelotric Velotric Go 1 — 12.6 Wh/miVelotric Velotric Nomad 1 Plus — 12.6 Wh/miHeybike Horizon — 12.6 Wh/miHeybike Ranger S 2.0 — 12.6 Wh/miRide1Up Revv1 HT — 13 Wh/miVelotric Velotric Packer 1 — 13.3 Wh/miHeybike Mars 2.0 750/1000W — 13.3 Wh/miHeybike Mars 2.5 — 13.3 Wh/miVelotric Velotric Triker Electric Tricycle — 13.4 Wh/miRide1Up LMT’D V2 — 13.4 Wh/miRide1Up Turris — 13.4 Wh/miRide1Up 500 Series — 13.9 Wh/miRide1Up 700 Series — 14.4 Wh/miRide1Up Rift — 16 Wh/miRide1Up Revv1 EVO — 17.3 Wh/miRide1Up Revv1 FS — 17.3 Wh/miRide1Up Revv1 DRT — 17.3 Wh/miHeybike Titan — 18 Wh/miEBIKEMETRICS · Wh PER CLAIMED MILEMODELS TRACKED113less data doubt−15less no capacity−8less no range claim−4SPOKES86median Wh/mi11.26.218.0 Wh/miEACH SPOKE IS ONE MODELEBIKEMETRICSWatt-hours per claimed milen = 86 of 113 models across 7 brands · laced 3-cross · lowest at 12 o’clock, climbing clockwise
Each spoke is one e-bike in our watt-hours-per-claimed-mile analysis, weighted and coloured by how much battery its range claim assumes per mile. The tape totals what we excluded, and why. Read the piece →

113 models tracked.

97 list battery capacity in Wh · 105 list a range claim. Where a manufacturer publishes nothing, we show a dash.

Law tracker

12 states written up.

Deliberately scoped: the states most riders are in, kept current, rather than 50 pages nobody re-checks. Each cites the statute and shows when we last read it. Informational, not legal advice.

Battery certification

69 of 113 name UL 2271 on the product page.

75 name UL 2849 for the whole system. The other 43 don't say — and we record that as "not stated", which is not the same as "not certified".

The Real Range Database isn't open yet. It's the thing this site is being built toward — claimed range versus what riders actually get, with rider weight, terrain and assist level attached. It has no reports in it, and we'd rather say that than pad it with estimates. What we're collecting →

How to read this site. Specs come from manufacturer pages, and manufacturers are optimistic about range. That gap is the reason the Real Range Database exists. See how we collect data and how we verify it.
