Looks like 39 foot pounds is 53Nm so you are pretty much mr average when it comes to your power. Is that 39 foot pounds related to the gear does it drop when you go into a high gear or is 39 the figure across all gears?
So you can now work out how much assistance the bike gives based on the motor's output at the crank and your gearing. You do lose about 2-3Nm through the chain for mid-drive motors.
