I am not conviced that brakeless and 22mph cruising speeds mixes that well. I like to average around 20mph on my rides but I ride where there is very little traffic, very few junctions and even fewer traffic lights meaning I rarely have to stop.
Regular stopping or slowing from 22mph is not good for legs or knees in my opinion.
