I'm 6'2ish, 215lbs and I have a 10 mile, completely flat commute (I live in Florida).
I'm looking at one of the Citizen folding bikes (so I can easily fold it up and bring it to my desk, plus toss it in my car and for many other reasons).
Specifically: http://www.citizenbike.com/catalog.asp?product_category_id=1&product_id=1
Would this be a good choice for a 20" front hub brushless motor kit? It has a nice rear-rack for battery placement and nice fenders.

The price is right and I don't see anything that immediately stands out at me that would make the conversion process difficult.
Any thoughts? I'm just getting into the electric conversion community so I've been picking up a lot here and there but I would love to hear from pro's and con's.
Thanks!
