I have a geared hub motor running 52v 20a , and tops out at about 28mph on a 700 x 38c tire.
I'd like to get a little more speed out of it, but can't go too big on the torque. So, it seems that running 72v and 12~15a would be a way to do it, after replacing the controller and battery. It won't push the motor that much harder, while allowing it to turn at a faster speed.
Does this sound reasonable? Anything crazy going to happen from a geared motor going over 30, but not quite 40? I'll be happy with a quick blast to 35mph or so.
