The motor should be able to handle the weight. After all it's a 5 times more capable vs my Magic Pie motor. I do have another seat mount that attaches to the frame. It takes a 30.9mm seat post and I have a sleeve coming in so I can use my current 27.2mm seat post. With the right(more expensive) esc, you can push 70+mph with that motor.

I really wanted the Greyborg setup in the beginning, but this frame looks meaner and was available at the time. The Greyp bike is a nicer setup with the new side panels.

Just built you a cheapy one like I did in the beginning. R&D should be a good excuse.
