/24-7PressRelease/ - BOULDER, CO, July 05, 2008 - The Boulder, CO based Optibike LLC manufacturers the only 2000 mpg hybrid vehicle made in America specifically for the American market. The human-electric hybrid travels 50 miles on $.08 worth of electricity at 30+ mph! This is the same amount of energy required to run 5 household light bulbs for 1 hour.
The 2000 mpg vehicle is called the Optibike, which augments the riders pedal power with an electric motor and battery that is equivalent to having TWO Tour De France winners pedaling your bike with you. Customers riding Optibikes routinely commute 15-20 miles each way on their Optibikes and are losing weight, and leaving their 15mpg SUV's in the garage.
About Optibike:
The best selling Optibike model, the 800Li, boasts an 800w Motorized Bottom Bracket (MBB) and a 20ah lithium ion battery that is warranted by Optibike for 3 years/30,000 miles. Each bike is custom made to your specifications to keep you comfortable while maxing out the 100 mile range (with optional touring pack). Front and rear Fox suspension keeps riders safe and comfortable at 30+ mph and the Avid Carbon hydraulic disk brakes make stopping a breeze. All of the electronics are safely housed inside of the frame making the Optibike 100% waterproof and really sleek looking.
