Adventure
For longer rides when you want maximum available range.
50%
Storage
For periods when the bike won't be ridden regularly.
20%
Shipping
A lower state-of-charge option when appropriate.

The CyberPika charger defaults to 80% Daily Mode, allowing partial charging without continuously monitoring the battery.
