How fast are you wanting to go? I top out at about 31mph with my 1.5hp on level ground. The GX31 is a 4 stroke. I wouldn't be very happy with a slower top...

This sounds interesting. I have not seen yet an electric bike under 50 lbs, most of them coming with 60-70 lbs. I hope Eddie´s site will become accessible...
Hmmm. A lot of thought along these lines. I know of four small ICE assists other than the crude commercial units. Jim, Ross and mine have been mentioned. Jon...

Why not this group - it's not specifically electric focused and the ones that are quite against IC my guess would be in the minority. After all, it's a power...
