Optibike is the best USA made bicycle company there is Bar non. The CEO (Jim) is super nice and helpful. Customer support is top notch. I like it so much I owned 3 of there bikes. I have The original 400R (10yrs old And still working fine) Optibike, Which lead me to purchase the newer R8 for myself and the Pioneer Allroad For my wife. It’s expensive but is a very good investment that will last you a very very long time. Hope this help those who are on the side line wanting to purchase an Optibike.

Great bike We have 2 in family 1- 1100 and 1 -850 Had for over 5 years and great bikes with no issues. I still get over 20 miles on my batteries too. I talked with service at optibike and they answered phone and solved my issue. Thanks you Optibike - the bike that saved me

These bikes still appear to be quiet the bike with all the low power slow moving Chinese bikes; opti bikes are like a breadth of fresh air. The ride feels un inhibited like you are free in the wind. A couple on road bikes decided to pass me on a narrow dirt trail in which the speed I was doing felt comfortable; they seemed to pass me like I was another slow ebike. The trail went back to concrete and was quiet wider I passed them in just a few seconds and they scoffed at me and stopped. It was very odd but I kept going with a smile on my face and my pedals still like they were frozen in place.

I bought the Optibike RMC Commuter. It took only 5 minutes to assemble out of the box. Very smart shipping box. The bike rides like a dream. I had a few smaller issues which Jim Turner fixed right away. He answers the phone himself and provides top shelf support. Ultimately, I had to make use of the return policy. The road I am on has many many potholes, and I have learned that the 24" wheels are super nimble, but cause too much vibration on bumps. I would buy one again.

Jim Turner is an amazing human being and I thouroughly enjoyed giving him my business for electric bikes. No other seller I encountered came close to being as knowledgeable as Jim, as well as able to share that knowledge at a beginner level.

2009 Optibike 850r. Strong and sturdy e-bike, with a powerful motor. Great for commuting due to its higher speeds, helping to keep up with urban traffic. Good solid components with its very functional and low maintenance Rohloff hub. My 10 year old bike is still working away, used almost daily for work commutes. On its second battery now, a 28ah version. When the first battery wore out, I was with out use of my bike for about a year due to very slow lead times and a fault with the new battery which burnt out my bikes control board. The second battery will need to be replaced soon, as it’s fading, it’s only about two years old. My latest e-bike, a Specialized Levo, is much a better bike for trail riding and MTB racing and about 6kgs lighter. Also the Brose motor is so much quieter than Optibike’s. Having said that, I still enjoy the occasional trail spin on my old Optibike. With so many new e-bikes from respected brands, using highly developed motor units from blue chip companies and their extensive dealer service networks, Optibike are now a very niche brand. Ideal for those who want power over trail performance and for those who live in the Colorado and surrounding states.
