I also find that when I'm travelling over 30 kms/hr, my brakes are just barely adequate, so I'm thinking front discs also. I have to but the hub on the rear wheel and I'm concerned about balance with both the hub and the battery being on the rear wheel.

If you build up your own bike, do you have suggestions on any improvements to my build?
