    Optibike R22 Everest

    Sorry, it works very well just not quite as well as my Innotrace. But that is on the margins for sure. It works as well or better than anything else I have riden.

    Optibike R22 Everest

    I did 120 miles and had maybe 30 more but this was on forest service roads and avg about 25ish mph. If you rode at a I could see 200 as possible. Have not got enough time off work yet.

    Watt Wagons Critical Product Availability Status

    My Optibike R22 3.3kW order with a torque sensor and throttle is in for starting the build. Jim said they have 3 ordered but I am next. I will start a new thread when I get it. Excited and poor! I have been bit by early adoption before but "yolo" no wife.

    Watt Wagons Critical Product Availability Status

    I put a deposit on the full boat Optibike R22 because they will build me the first R22 with a torque sensor and the 3.3Kw battery. I am wearing my Luna Apollo out and want a Rohloff and stiffer frame anyway. Plus I will move to BI Hawaii in a couple of years.
