A few things to consider. If your motor is over 750 watts or 1 hp it is not considered an electric bicycle. Most Elec. Bikes are programmed not to exceed 23 mph to stay in electric bike category. The correct mix of Motor Watts, Controller Amp Output and Battery is very important for power and range.
I would for the Rv'er look for range over speed. Constant 20 mph is Fast on a bicycle and probably very painful in a fall. When you buy an electric bike it will have "pedal assist" some kits do not have that.
I think pedal assist is the most important feature of an electric bike. The problem is...if you test out an electric bike you will probably purchase it.
I will have mine @ the Purdue / Iowa game Nov. 3 stop by say hello and try one out !!
