My E-bike weighs 55 lbs and it is Aluminum.
So 81 wit packaging is not un-reasonable.

18 mph on 450 watts would be optomistic in my book, especially with a 24 volt permanent magnet set up.

Oh, wait a minute I'm just Fat.

For reference 450 watts can hold me around 16 mph without assist, but I weight 250 lbs. I'm 800 peak watts 36 volt. I want to put the whatts up on my dad's bike to see how it does.

EDIT: and NIMH
