25,kmh is the minimum speed of an ebike. You won't sustain that on a bicycle. The average speed on the tour de France is 27 kmh.
The Tour de France includes mountain climbs and riding for the whole day, my commute to work is 20 mins along an old railway. Here 25kmh is the maximum speed an ebike can go before the motor becomes dead weight.
