Claims 155NM torque - should make for a reasonably fast push bike, wonder if you could take advantage of a mountain bike with all its gears?
They work on a hub drive so conventional gearing won't be of any assistance. However if you do choose to peddle assist the gearing will help.

Don't believe any of the range quotes, unless you're peddling aswell, at an economical and probably appropriate 20km/h you'd be lucky to make it to the bottlo and back.
