Later finding your vlog but great to see it. We have e20.8s on order and hope to get them early July. Do you have the range booster battery or an in-car charger? Curious as to actual range while doing some of the more challenging rides.
Just the standard battery. We took the mains chargers with us, but got at least 2 days of hilly riding before needing them. Last weekend I did 118km without needing a charge. The bikes have next to no resistance when ridden without power, so the trick we have learned is to ride them as much as possible with no assistance, then just add a bit as necessary on a hill, headwind or dirt track. If you turn them on full assistance whenever you get on then yes, it will be really easy and yes, you will be able to ride faster, but you will burn through the battery power fairly quickly

The condition of British roads is disgusting
After riding the same bike on roads in the Pyrenees, riding roads in the UK is depressing in comparison
