I bought a Ride 1 Up for my boy. I have given him a ride up hill, for a couple blocks with my pedaling some to get the bike going on the steeper parts. With throttle only, the thing will do 20 mph. With a little tiny pedal input, it will top out at 28. Plenty of power to move a couple people on the flats. I don't think you can go 30 miles on one charge with only battery and two people on it, maybe if you pedal some? I bought another battery, Solved the range issue.
