The All-Around R8 Electric Bike
The Optibike R8 is the standard by which all other electric bikes are measured. The R8 has superior handling, hill climbing ability and stopping power than any other bike. The new larger 29Ah Lithium battery gives you the longest range of any electric bicycle, up to 100 miles with optional Touring Battery.
Racing class Fox Suspension and Avid hydraulic brakes make this bike extremely safe and comfortable to ride. The patented Motorized Bottom Bracket (MBB) lets this bike climb any hill and the low center of gravity of the exclusive patented monocoque frame make this bike ultra-stable.
Proven 100 mile+ Range
Only the Optibike R8 carries enough energy to travel 100 miles on a charge, and we have proven it. At the 2006 Tour De Sol Electric Vehicle race held in upstate New York, Craig Weakley rode an Optibike 104 miles in less than 4 hours over a course of rolling hills with minimal pedaling. (100 mile range requires optional Touring battery)
Over 3 Hours of Run time in ECO Mode
Long run time and a huge range of 55 miles on a single charge, you can go anywhere!
