Admittedly that makes more sense if you were actually looking to go out on a club type ride, but this is just for a short clip. I think the contrast between a MTB and a Road bike would make it much more visually interesting, just need to calculate the correct hill to have a reasonable race.
E-mtb's weight approximately the same as the moon. If the motor isn't on then you may as well be riding with square wheels. I'm sure it will be fine for the video.
Why, if it's still limited to 16mph?
