Title: ECO mode details
Post by: ipsailor on August 06, 2021, 08:06:30 AM
How can I get detailed info on how the ECO mode operates on my rad city and what I should see on the display?

I bought the bike in March 2021.   As I ride ( primarily in PAS 2), the mode display shows ECO.  This is good.   Research on the web implies that I should be able to see the power feeding back to the battery from the motor. However, all I see is zeros.   

PS:  this bike rides like a dream.  Went together well out of the box.  Only needed a small adjustment to the derailleur by a bike shop.  Have 250+ miles.
Thanks

Regen, the 'power feeding back' operates when braking is applied, and that's available in all PAS modes. Slightly apply your brakes when rolling and you should see the wattage increase in response.

"ECO" is the label to used represent power assist 2. Each power assist level represents a limit to the amount of power used to provide assistance when pedaling.
