Thought I would start a thread to see what everybodies dream ebike would be. Well to get things started here is what I have come up for myself so far. My idea is based on the good old days of the big wheels with the spinout brake lever. Unfortunetly nobody makes a big wheel for adults so here is what I have found so far...
Bike - Triton Pro Three-wheeled 20" Cruiser Bicycle
Motor - 20" Crystalyte 5302 front wheel hub
Battery 48v, 15ah, lifepoh4
Based on the Crystalyte.com Hub Motor Simulator it should do about 52mph. But I thinkI am reading the simulator wrong because that is pretty fast!
The idea is to replace the front wheel with the X5 hub motor and adding bike pegs to put your feet on.

Pretty cheesy video of bike. With a motor it would be a blast though!
