Not suprising, try looking for Permanent Magnet Motors, would need to be rated at your desired voltage in a reasonable speed range like 150-400 rpm.

Motor/generator same beast when you are talking permanate magnet, remember that terminal voltage (the voltage at the generator output unloaded) is linear. Meaning if the motor is rated at 100v @ 1000rpm then it will have a terminal voltage of 10v @ 100rpm.

Hope that helps.
