Set up some jumps and a drop on our test track area and good some more action pictures!

Those are good points, everyone has there preferences and there are advantages to each kind, we prefer a throttle as we come from a motocross background and like to ride our high power bikes like the R15C more like a lightweight motocross bike with pedals (where legal of course) rather than a...

Drivetrain wear varies a lot depending on the setup, maintenance and how hard you ride. Getting rid of the cassette and using the Rohloff 14 speed hub helped with chain and sprocket life a lot. I would say 2-4k miles would be reasonable if your riding it hard, more if you ride easier. We have...

Got some great studio shots of the R15C, they came out amazing and really show off the great looks of the bike!

Here are 2 new videos we put together of the R15C

Some more action pics of Optibike founder Jim Turner riding the local trails on the R15C!

We have the first bike done, what a blast to ride! It handles amazing and is super stable even at high speeds due to the low CG. The new rear suspension is working great so far and soaks up bumps and jumps like they aren't there, the carbon frame is extremely rigid and helps with the handling...

Here are some more detailed specifications on the new Carbon R15C The R15C continues the tradition of only using the highest quality performance components, like Fox suspension, SRAM Code Brakes, Rohloff Internal Gear Hub, Renthal Carbon Fiber handlebars, DT Swiss Rims and more. The bike has...

Around the same price as the old Elite Series line, with some less expensive models as well. Just one size right now, but it has a low stand over height of about 27" so it will work for a good range of rider heights.

In 2008, Optibike set the standard for the Electric Bike Industry with the introduction of the OB1. The OB1 was the first electric bike in the world to have a high capacity 37 volt 20 amp hour Lithium battery, the battery mounted in the frame and an 850 watt mid drive motor. Today, most other E...

Great to hear! And I will pass that onto Jim ASAP!

Thanks for posting! That's one badass bike, the 5" tires are monsters. Wish I got a chance to check it out when you brought it by!

They are there... Are they not showing up for you?

Here's some pics of one of the first 6 production bikes. They have throttles now too

Its more subdued than safety orange but you certainly would be visible to traffic riding that bike!

Its a bit dead in here so I thought I would get a little activity going and post some pictures of some custom bikes we have built over the last several years. Enjoy! Chrome R11 Camo R11 Ocean themed R8 with cruiser controls Matte grey "stealth" R11 Burnt orange R11 (not really custom...

No bullshit, it really has been mostly issues with getting the parts made and made correctly. That's no excuse for being late on delivering these bikes, I just hope you can understand what's going on and that we aren't forgetting about you and everyone else who ordered SIMBB's or throwing you...
