Without more info on the motors, I can't say much. But two inches sounds quite small. What RPM? Are they gear motors? What current do they draw under stall and load?

Perhaps the best advice that I can give is to take a look at this page:

Scroll down to the middle where you will find the bicycles, and look at what others have done.

Oh, and I doubt that you have 112 AH batteries. Those would be HUGE (think computer monitor size). You probably have 11.2 AH batteries.
