If you want to go beyond speed limit of 20, you'll have to build your bike with a kit. Check the speeds on crystalyte and bmc. With 26 tires, I bet you could get yourself up to 40-50 if you really wanted. BMC 1000watt rear motor, 72v ping batteries, and a solid controller. It'd be enough to make you lose your breakfast.
Here's a link with info on various kits out there. Mind, it's not exhaustive, but I certainly learned a lot when researching kits. I ended up with an Amped kit, 500w. Price was right. I'm going 22-24 on 700c wheels (on the flats) with a 36v15ah.
