With a 48V battery and the standard controller I would expect at least 38Nm of torque from the Smart Pie and over 52Nm from the Magic Pie.
My original
(MkI) Magic Pie had a modified internal controller and I measured
a stall torque of 93Nm while drawing 65.94 Amps @ 25.6V
(1,694 Watts) from my 25.9V 10Ah LiPo pack.
The Magic Pie is more than capable of delivering huge amounts of torque when high current is supplied. On a 51.8V LiPo pack my modified Magic Pie would easily flip the bike over backwards if you accelerated too hard from a standstill.
I suppose it is not really surprising considering the amount of battery power the modified controller was actually drawing before it finally expired:
