The Optibike Riot e-MTB has 190Nm of torque and a mammoth 1,630Wh battery!

Side view of the Optibike Riot.

Optibike has launched the most powerful electric bike we have ever seen. The US brand's new Riot e-MTB comes specced with a quite literally massive 1,630Wh battery, 750 watts of continuous power, an incredible 190Nm of torque, and also boasts a range of up to a claimed 290km.

Very impressive numbers, however, the downside of such power is its eye-watering price tag and weight. The Riot comes priced at $14,400 / €13,200 which puts it in the upper echelons of the best electric bike pricing. It also tips the scales in the wrong direction too, weighing in at a spine-shattering 31kg.
