    Yes, the opinion of someone that has been riding bikes since the early 60s and does more than goes out jumping curbs and pretending like 20 miles is a long way on a bike. If you have or want a hub motor just cut to the chase and get a moped, they have all the things you want... more speed and...

    Battery questions

    I suggest you get the largest Amperage 50-52V you can buy and fit on the bike.
