The New Optibike Essex
An E-Bike for Smaller Riders
Featuring New “Fit Freedom” Frame Design
‘Fit Freedom’ technology solves the problem of getting on and off a bike. It lets you move the seat out of the way with a single button.
The perfect fit for all riding conditions. Lower the seat for mounting and dismounting, and raise it for cruising down the road.

Somewhere between your home and the office, between untamed dirt roads and the conformity of pavement, lies an opportunity to take command of life, to grab hold of the handlebars and ride toward freedom.
With just a flick of the wrist, or a push on the pedals, you are propelled forward by the power found only the in the Optibike. It is experiencing the perfect synergy between human and machine, accelerating on the open road.
Optibike embodies the relentless pursuit of functional perfection - every day is seen as an opportunity to push forward, ensuring the ultimate riding experience. Neither its creator nor its rider would dare settle for anything less.
Optibike redefines the riding sensation. Whether as a replacement for a car, or as a high-performance machine capable of taking its rider to extremes. Optibike is built for fun, for adventure, and as the vehicle toward a healthy way of life.
"When you ride the Optibike you are getting a kinesthetic experience that you can't explain. It's Art."
