    It is interesting how I am affected by the speed limit: 1). If I have a destination in mind - 20mph seems ridiculous. 2). If I am sight seeing and riding around lots of walkers - 20 seems reasonable. So I would say yes - having a 28+ mph bike is the only solution. For those who don't want to...

    Do you ride with any other Ebikers? How does the bike compare? 30-50 Newton meters would be weak for me I need lots of help. My Bulls puts out 80. Maybe there is a diff in peak verses normal??
