I have a an awesome 1978 Honda Hobbit PA50II moped that gets about 100 mpg , goes 30 mph and takes me about 100 miles between fillups:

I want to convert it into a gas/electric hybrid in the simplest way possible. Feedback on my idea, please:

Add a front hub brushless motor wheel with built-in internal controller like the MagPie series.

Then slap a Lithium Polymer battery (which already have from my folding electric bike)) on the back rack, a throttle speed controller and a power switch on the handlebar.

Then I can use the Hobbit's gas engine when I want, or switch to electric power when I want.

Comments? Flaws? Tips? Thanks!
