Hi Mandy ,
I will get round to taking some pics but we are away for two weeks . Flat out speed would be 22-24 mph , I use the CycleAnylist to limit the maximum current to 5-6 amps for the flat or the easy hills , ie max power limited at 250 watts . For a steep hill the limit can be removed and then there are 600-650 watts available . The controller I use is the stock one supplied by NineContinent . I do turn off the power throttle on the flat . The 40 mile range is easy by being sensible with the power , I think Mr Pings LiFeP04 battery is very good , I don't use more than 80% of the full capacity on a trip , don't want to end up pushing it home .
Regards Bill
