A mid-mount or mid-drive is where the electric motor or motors are mounted. Such as the bike shown below. The big push now is to use high-powered RC motors and batteries in a dual motor configuration. People are doing it with great success. It takes less power but the trade-off is range. Someday, the mid-drive will be the way to go. Technology is moving fast.

The 60 to 70mph top speeds are not sustained speeds. Just short bursts. I'd just like to have the capability not that I would use it much.
