I generally average around 15-18 depending on hills and thats usually solo. Thanks for the tip on the rear geared hub.

What is your speed?
I get 25 miles out of a 36v mini cube, while joe gets 15 miles out of the 52v mini cube.
(technical info: the 36v is 3p, 52 is 2p, so there is a 50% bump in amp hours for the same number of cells.

12ah should be good for you for 36v. Generally you don't want to use more than 80% of your capacity on a regular basis.
