You'll have to get a hubmotor and build it to your own rim, or have it built for you. Nobody is
going to offer a prebuilt wheel in an obsolete size.

This is the only 48V hubmotor I have heard of: http://www.electricbikessys.com/motor.htm

But be aware, it's watts that count and not volts. Heinzmann offer a hub motor and controller that
is said to be good for 1100 watts @36V. The Heinzmann unit is geared down internally whereas the one
in the link I provided is direct drive.

Chrysalite, a Chinese co., makes one. http://groups.yahoo.com/power-assist has discussion about it.
