Bbshd 1500w middrive motor on steel framed custom stoker-handicapped tandem. Captain provides most of the motive force.
PAS disabled, use throttle and always pedal.
On road i might use throttle only for hill assist.
95% rail trail usage, most often 35 to 95 watts on level nonpaved surfaces full time and 350 to 750 watts climbing. We piddle along at 8mph average and 15mph max with loads of sightseeing stops.
400# gvw with tons of gear for even an afternoon ride.
Motor retrofit old frame and later commissioning custom frame has enabled continent wide explorations and continued usage with our aging.
The biggest challenge is transport and assembly of this two piece 82# system plus gear.
