That's why lithiums are so great. I have over 12,000 miles and 2 1/2 years on mine (Atomic) and they haven't degraded 1 mile. I get virtually the same 65 miles on the real odometer on every charge and I record every charge so it's not a guesstimate. I do notice a slight loss of torgue going up LONG steep hill (like O'Dell) at about 50% down but still easily maintain 20+ but it has always been that way.
