Hi everyone-
As I obsess over motor/battery/controller configurations, I constantly come back to the question of, "How fast do I want to be able to go?".
And unfortunately, there isn't really any way to know what X mph feels like on your specific bike on a specific road in a set of specific conditions until you try it. Since that's an expensive/dangerous way to learn, I thought I'd ask you all.
I have an EZ Racer "Tour Easy" LWB recumbent. It has a 20" front wheel (700cc rear), no suspension. Schwalbe tires. How fast would you say a reasonable person (with dependents!) should try to go on this bike?
