In my case, about 20-40 miles (depending on traffic) of my commute is under 50 mph, and a lot of that is stop-and-go. I was thinking of adapting Mike's drop-down Etek e-wheel design. That way, I could gear it to a maximum of, say, 50 mph for decent acceleration, and then lift it up when going faster to prevent overspeeding the motor. It also would work around town as well, and with a DC/DC, prevent me from having to run the ICE just to keep the 12V battery alive while sitting.
