R17T High Performance Offroad eMTB

With 1700 watts of continuous motor power, the R17 has plenty of power to get you moving fast, and lets you climb those steep hills in no time at all.

It also won’t overheat even when climbing in hot weather, meaning you get full performance for your entire ride.

190Nm of Torque will get you up any hill, let you effortlessly climb over ledges and logs, climb a 40% grade, and keeps you moving on rocky trails.

The Optibike PowerStorm™ MBB is designed and built by us Colorado. By designing our own motor we can push the limits of performance and integrate it seamlessly into our frame.

The large 1,630Wh battery lets the R17 go long distances, 100+ miles on a single charge. The battery is also removable, undo 3 bolts and it slides out of the frame.

High capacity Li-ion cells combined with a Carbon Fiber case gives a lightweight battery, at only 18 lbs for 1630Wh of energy.

We design our own batteries so they can be as lightweight as possible and have a long lifespan.

With 170mm of rear suspension travel from our custom designed linkage system, and a beefy front suspension fork, you get a ride that’s both comfortable and also extremely stable.

Great suspension lets you go fast on bumpy terrain, and keeps the tires planted on the ground so you don’t lose traction. It also lets you ride longer without getting fatigued.

The R17 comes with a Rohloff 14 speed internally geared hub. No more chains falling off, no more clunky shifting, and less maintenance for you to deal with.

With a Rohloff hub the chainline is kept straight which puts less wear on the chain, and smoother shifting stresses the chain less, so your chain lasts much longer compared to a derailleur system.

The LCD display is easy to read with large numbers, it’s visible even in bright sun, and at night with a backlight. It lets you choose from 5 separate power levels to suit your ride, each one having unique speed, power, and torque limits.

It shows your basic ride information such as:

• Battery Gauge
• Speed (Current, max, and average)
• 2 Resettable Trip Odometers
• Lifetime Odometer

This bike uses a Throttle to control torque and power, the half-twist style throttle makes it easy to ride rough terrain without slipping or losing control.

Having a throttle allows for easier offroad riding, as you can climb over obstacles without hitting your pedals, and you have maximum torque even from a dead stop to get moving over steep terrain.

The throttle controls motor torque, twist the throttle more and you’ll accelerate quicker and go faster.

• Large disc brakes stop you quickly and stay cool down long descents.
• Beefy suspension keeps the tires planted on the ground.
• Low center of gravity and a rigid frame gives exceptional handling.

With a custom built 2700 lumen headlight you can see the road or trail in front of you, and the taillight makes sure that everyone else can see you too.

Both run directly from the bike battery, so you don’t have any extra batteries to manage.

We build each bike to order, and we fit it just for you.

Each R17 is hand built at our shop in Colorado, and we thoroughly test each bike before it gets sent out to you.

The R17 Frame, Swingarm, Motor, Battery, Headlight, and more are custom designed and hand assembled by us in Colorado.
