That is very similar to what Benniz fitted to his c5 ;

..his one was 36v and I remeber him saying it performed quite well

Yeah I thought of his as soon as i saw it! They do a 36v version but still only 250w.

Hi just read the above and it looks great but it states that the wheel dia is 12"not sure if they mean a 12" tyre would fit  . The C5 wheel is only 8.25"? dia .The tyre size is 12" ...so not sure if it would fit the forks best check it out if anyone is interested it  buying one ....

If fitted you would feel like you was doing a wheelie.......
