That's exactly what mine says on flat ground, 73mph. Guessing maybe 3mph optimistic from reading others posts. Certainly good enough for my requirements.

I am 5'8", here's a pic with my X, both feet on the ground (balls of both feet not heels). It's not really an issue as it has a low center of gravity and feels lighter than it is.

I'm going to look for a decent quality non o-ring and save this one as a backup. Just too much power loss and yes top speed was off dramatically (65-66 vs 73).
