Modifying the pedelec to get more speed has to be the challenge!
But why buy a pedelec anyway? Wont social services give you a mobility scooter for free?
There are kits to do it, but it's not really necessary. Because they provide assistance at lower speeds, it means that it's easy to get up to decent cruising speed, 15 to 20mph on a pushbike is plenty without worrying about having to wear any protective clothing. Once you are going downhill, the additional weight means you can go really quite fast enough, I regularly crack 30mph on a long downhill near me.
Pedelecs have one massive advantage over cars or motorcycles - they are perfect pub transport.
