I think we'll have to disagree a little PD. Increasing aerodynamic efficiency means less power is required. The little extra weight doesn't make much difference, the aero efficiency does.
The calculator at the top of the page says that with a CDA of 3.15 ft2 / 0.29 m2 ( a drag coefficient of .45 and a frontal area of 7 squ feet) which seems achievable. That requires 4.6 hp to do 60 mph / 97 kmh. The roll coefficient I used is .02.
I'm not sure how accurate the calculator is but it's a reasonable indicator.
