I was wanting to find out what hub conversion would be best to get a cruising speed of around mid 30 kmph? I'm commuting to work in London and it's mostly pretty flat. I figured hub is the cheapest and most reliable conversion.

It would be for a GT Zaskar hardtail bike. I'm wanting to order it so it's here by the time my bike comes over from south africa. Ideally with fast acceleration as I find that quite important at the lights for getting out of the way of cars quickly.

Would something like this be best? http://dillengerelectricbikes.co.uk/electric-bike-kits/best-sellers/off-road-electric-bike-kit-samsung-power-by-dillenger.html

Nope. You want a geared hub.
