The Metro is a Class 3 commuter e-bike designed for high-speed urban transportation and long-distance travel. Hand-built in Colorado, USA, this model is engineered for riders who require a combination of high-torque performance and extended range for daily commuting or utility use.

The Metro is powered by a 750W continuous mid-drive motor producing 190Nm of torque. As a Class 3 e-bike, it provides pedal assistance up to 28 mph, allowing riders to maintain higher average speeds in traffic. The 190Nm torque output provides a mechanical advantage when navigating steep city grades or carrying cargo, ensuring consistent acceleration and hill-climbing ability without straining the drive system.

Equipped with a 1,440Wh battery, the Metro offers significantly more capacity than standard commuter e-bikes. This allows for increased range between charges, making it a viable solution for long-distance commutes or multiple days of riding without needing to recharge. The frame is designed for stability at the higher speeds associated with Class 3 performance while housing the high-capacity battery.

Every Metro is hand-assembled to order at our Colorado facility. The manufacturing process focuses on durability and thermal management to ensure the bike can withstand the rigors of daily high-speed commuting. This domestic production also allows for a high level of quality control over the electrical and mechanical integration.

    Frequently Asked Questions about the Optibike Metro

    What is the “Gen 2” Frame design?

    The Gen 2 Frame is a complete redesign focused on rider comfort and system efficiency. It features a lower standover height, making it easier to get on and off the bike, especially when carrying gear on the rear rack. It also introduces a dedicated Quick-Swap Battery system and improved internal routing for a cleaner, more durable build.

    How is the PowerStorm “Whisper” different from the standard motor?

    The PowerStorm Whisper utilizes the same legendary gear-driven durability and 190Nm of torque as our standard motors but features a re-engineered mounting interface and housing. This design dampens vibration and sound, resulting in a quieter motor that runs cooler thanks to improved heat dissipation properties.

    What is the range of the Metro?

    The Metro comes with a 1,440Wh battery, which is roughly double the size of a standard e-bike battery. While range varies by terrain, this massive capacity allows for significant long-distance touring. For multi-day expeditions, the Quick-Swap feature allows you to carry a spare battery and switch it out in seconds without tools.

    Is the Metro good for climbing hills?

    Absolutely. With 750W of power and 190Nm of torque, the Metro offers industry-leading climbing capability. The optimized heatsink on the Gen 2 frame ensures the controller stays cool even during long, steep ascents in hot weather.
