I'm doing 40 kph, not mph, big difference there.

Power two weight is very modest, it's only a 350 W motor in there for this one.

My history with accidents is simple: I was cycling on a low racer recumbent and hit a traffic obstacle at a very unfortunate angle. Shit happens. But this bike is about 100x times safer than that recumbent. And a lot slower too, in spite of being assisted, low racers are very fast for unpowered bikes.
