How fast is the Throne Cycles Rascal?

Our product page lists no acceleration time or torque figure for the Rascal.
How do I charge the Throne Cycles Rascal and how far does it go?
The Rascal runs a 48V 13Ah lithium-ion battery that charges from empty in 4 to 6 hours, and the pack handles the power supply without adding unnecessary bulk to the frame. Our product page lists no range figure for the Rascal, so none appears here; the range you see will depend on rider weight, terrain and how much pedal assist you use.
Who is the Throne Cycles Rascal for?
At GritShift we list the Rascal as the compact fat tire model in the Throne Cycles pedal assist line: it brings 16 x 4.0 in fat tire traction into a shorter format than the 20 inch and larger wheels most fat tire e-bikes run, with a 30 to 31 in seat height and a 220 lb (100 kg) rider weight limit. That makes it a practical pick for riders with limited storage space or shorter inseams, and the fat tires absorb surface irregularities on pavement, gravel and light off road terrain, since the Rascal has no dedicated suspension system. Our product page lists no bike weight for the Rascal. It comes in Black, White or Pink.
