Really doubt that drill will stand up to the duty cycle needed.

Probably more for novelty purposes.

Dewalt makes some pretty tough drills on the upper end of their line. Duty cycle is not usually much of a consideration for drills, so if they publish that, I've never seen it. As Bob says, this is probably just a novelty -- to show it can be done -- or it might be good around a large warehouse or some other limited range purpose. It's not likely to be anyone's solution for a 40 mile ride!

Sure, I like the concept and creative thinking behind it. To actually see it propel anyone is kinda impressive with such low voltage.

I just wonder how this is going to work with a 100 kg guy on the bike

The drill has a big battery. A lot of amp hours regardless. I can't tell but it might be a Flex-Volt drill/battery that puts out either 20 or 60 volts, depending what it's hooked up to. Your point still stands though!

Good point!
I think this would be a nice project for dad and kids to play around with at the same time keeping it safe for them to ride.

Just strap a few extra drills to switch out on a toolbelt when the one gets hot/overworked, hah.

Think I have that same drill bought new last Black Friday sale. Still going on the initial charge impressive compared to my older 18v dewalt. Think dewalt rated it at something like 80nm power.
