I ride an Orbea Gain gravel with the same motor set up, I average around 60 miles & 2000metres of climb on a full charge. I generally cruise at just over 15mph cut off so the motor only really works when I start climbing or hit head winds.For an ageing rider it's a great way of increasing range if you've a long commute or just being able to decide how hard you want to ride on any given day.

Electric bikes are not only performing well, but they are getting better and better looking too - that is a sleek machine 👍🏻

A great option to get those with either less power out on longer rides exploring new places, or helping people who could otherwise not even be able to consider riding. The bike looks good too, not garish at all

You must have been riding an awful lot of the ride over the 15mph cut off to get that sort of range. Most mere mortals would struggled for their battery to last that sort of ride as it's only 250 watt hours

You literally rode past the fountain thing that is Buxton water in the first clip of you in Buxton, that wouldn’t have cost you anything! 😂😂

That's not a bakewell tart, that's a cherry bakewell.

A Bakewell Tart?…..oh it’s a cake….I thought it was a lady of the night

Dude riding at minus 5.. props

Great video however that’s not a bakewell tart. 😢 however kudos for heading down Monsal trail in the snow it does get cold on there.

Very enjoyable adventure. However it would have been nice to have done a proper ‘post ride’ analysis at the end, instead of a rushed outro.

I cycled into the Peak District from Derby on a normal bike and it nearly killed me… those hills! Should be easier on an e-bike though…

All the manufacturers data and yutube riders of e bikes, you must have been putting a lot of effort in so that the motor was not being used. A more realistic vlog would be to ride at 24km/hour to see how long the battery lasts, i should imagine possibly max 100km

Great video, especially because it's around my ends. Would have been really nice on a good day. I am sure Ribble liked it too. Win, win 👍

@4:48 - because in the middle of town, there's a spring where you can get it for free...

That would make a longer commute more doable like my 80mile round trip with 5k feet of climbing. It was ok on day 1 but every day nah. The only issue is they are not cheep. It is a good looking bike you would not know at first glance.

How the hell is that the first Bakewell tart you have eaten. Have you been living under a rock!!!

Grey for a cycling jacket - bonkers!

Damn, you guys got snow up north… thank god it’s coming to spring

This almost mirrors that day I had as a motorbike courier when i had a 'run' up to manchester from london, and doing just a tad more than the national speed limit officer, my panniers managed to slip onto the exhaust and caught fire and I lost all my belongings including credit cards somewhere along the M56. Managed to deliver a scorched parcel to the recipient but only had about 3/4 of a gallon in the tank to get to Nottingham where a mate lived. It was the slowest a Honda CX500 had ever been driven over the Peaks but i managed to roll into Lenton on vapours. Nothing to do with cycling, but hey! Just thought i'd share!

I have a similar bike and it’s 15mph cut off. You’re obviously a very capable and fit cyclist, for many you’d burn the battery big style in ‘red’ mode. With good management I can get 70 miles range, in red mode it may be as little as 40.

Can you list it as activity ebike on Strava please? just curious to see where you end up. Oh and I'm guessing you would have done just as well on a normal bike?

Good video and good info on the battery life

15mph is the cut off

Our winters often get down to 10 degrees and sometimes it rains. Needless to say we wait a few hours for the rain to stop and then go for a ride. Cycling really is better in Australia.

The motor cuts out at 'around 18mph'? I think you mean 'exactly 15.5mph and not even slightly over'.

I've got a Ribble Endurance SL e & I love in Manchester, so I'm gonna do this challenge myself soon 👌🏻🚴💨💨⚡

Hi cam. This vid defo meeds revisiting. See how far you can get in one day on full charge! I'd wait until summer though!! 😅 ❄ 👍👍

hey Cam , FYI i have those castelli gloves and they are the bomb diggity for cold weather riding

You should have got proper Buxton Water at St Anne’s well👍🚴

I alway find the nearest church yard, they alway have a tap outside to fill bottles up 😉

Didnt even notice you live in Town now! Also agree with the last two goals (Bakewell especially!) not the first ;)

1st Bakewell tart 😮 best cake going

Small Bakewell tart 😂😂 & you've never tasted before??? 😮

So a great bike for someone fit enough to ride long intervals at 18+ in order to conserve battery power. I just wonder, people who are that fit, would they spend their own money on one of those bikes, or just stay fit by riding their own bikes they already have.

What's that jacket you're wearing, is it waterproof and warm (ish) ?, I' m looking for something that I can ride in that will keep me dry but not overheat !

Should of gone to the well in Buxton and get the purest form of Buxton water

I grew up around Whaley bridge, used to get snow days in June

No hands next to a canal 😂 Lady luck is with you 🤞🏼

Cool! And on my birthday too!

Wow its cold in the beginning of March, just like most years.

What voltage/amps was the battery ?

If you stay in eco mode the battery lasts quite a long time but but in turbo mode it quickly discharges, in my opinion battery life isn’t great and will improve a lot in time

Is there an app with that bike so that you can analyse your ride. I have a Lapierre road/racing bike with the same electric motor set up that I bought online in Germany. I gave up trying to get a Ribble as the waiting times were insane and since Brexit the bike in not price competitive in Ireland anymore.

As some one who lives in the Netherlands a bike like this with that max speed is completely useless 99.9% of the time for everyone that is in just a little bit of a trained state. So what do you do, you adjust your wheel diameter a bit.

A small bakewell tart ? Think they only come in one size mate 😄

Nice one Cam

How did you film it? What equipment did you use?

DId U have Regen breaking? If you can feather the breaks on downhill w/out engaging the disc it pumps up your range by as much as 15%

Hi Cameron Super video around where I live ! Was the bike aluminium that you were on and would you say it would be considerably better having the carbon version ? I’ve been looking at both those ribble bikes recently but was thinking of aluminium with carbon wheels ? Your thoughts ?

remember when I lived in central manny the rides through the centre we're a death trap!

Would love to see how an electric bike would do from my house, just 50m above sea level, to the highest possible point by road near me, 45km away, to a height of 2400m.

How many watts do you think you saved?

You missed photographing your Ribble bike next to the river Ribble....

I really like the bike

Hi Cameron - will you be riding the Manchester marathon course in a few weeks before the run starts?

Looks great bro but f**k that in Northern weather 🥶

But which setting was it on eco , urban or sport mode and each have 3 modes low mid high My bike has same motor etc and at mo only getting 36 miles but its cold and iam 17 stone .

Used to live up long hill😊

That is NOT a proper Bakewell Tart! and you got it from Bakewell🤦

Did you have flaired bars or were your levers pointing inwards 🤔👍🚴

Do Ebikes recharge the battery when going downhill?

If you want to do a test ride then please get your facts right the assist cuts out at 15.5 mph also completely missinforming the average rider over the range to expect as generally people who buy ebikes are not bike racers

Flat in Manc? what happened to the house you bought?

looking for a bakewell tart in a bakery...bet ur mint at hide and seek ;)

That is not a Bakewell Tart!

Like you videos in general, but I think the distance needs a fact check as most e bike riders will be very surprised to hear a range at 160>180km out of one charge, especially as you said the 100km you did was in max power mode, unless you actually had the range extender fitted which i believe is an option, though as you stated 18mph when the legal limit is 15.5mph for the motor to disengage perhaps your not up to date with this tech ? In the end this is a sponsored video, so likely to be a little bias (they always are from everyone) but the mileage i think is just misleading, 250w battery in sub zero temps... hmmm. not convinced and yes i do have an e bike so used to seeing real life distance.

100km in turbo mode in that cold??? Seems way more than others get. Is this sponsored?

If you need someone to look after it while you’re on your regular bike give me a shout

Cambodia?

Where is the battery on the bike?

Shout me if you will be riding the Manchester marathon course in April. We've got 26 miles of closed roads to use

Calling it...this video is click bait

Oh please, have some respect. When you eat a Bakewell tart you don't talk. You might lose a crumb.

Wtf is a gravel bike American i suppose

First

This is not sport.ride less k with own power in stead of ridiculing yourself

fake bikes for fake....... non sporters doing sport; buy a scooter, much easier>.

I despise ebikes. But this is nevertheless a good adventure! Next time do it on a real bike though.

I think e bikes are the worst thing to ever happen to cycling. Especially for those of us who love to battle for KOMS
