...I realize you probably don't follow the recent developments in this industry, but this statement is incorrect. Here's the latest Juiced marketing campaign. Clearly they are making and selling a couple of "e-bikes" that exceed 750 watts (or about 1HP) in power. They are not alone in going in that direction. A peak motor output of 1800 watts is more than enough to qualify as dangerous, when applied on two wheels.
