OHM Cycles Sales Increase as More Riders Choose OHM’s High Quality Premium E-bikes

VANCOUVER, B.C., CANADA– The word is out – OHM Cycles means high quality. As interest for electric bikes grows in North America, OHM’s electric bikes are becoming the most sought after premium electric bikes.

“Sales for our electric bikes have increased 90% from 2010.” said Michael DeVisser, co-founder of OHM Cycles. “We are forecasting even larger growth for the upcoming year.”

OHM’s e-bike lineup includes an Urban model with 700C wheels ideal for traversing city pavements and a Sport model with mountain-bike style 26-inch wheels and all-terrain tires for rugged terrain.

Both models feature a convenient quick-connect battery for easy recharging; a purpose-built aluminum frame with standard wheelbase for perfect balance and control; premium, lightweight components and front suspension for a responsive, comfortable ride; and integrated lighting, hydraulic disc brakes, a rear carry rack, and fenders included as standard equipment.

OHM hybrid e-bikes are similar to regular bikes, but energized by an electric motor integrated into the rear wheel.  The motor, a brushless direct-current generative design, is capable of peak power output of 700 Watts.  OHM’s proprietary, enclosed rechargeable lithium-ion battery is center-mounted for better weight distribution.  Operational details are clearly visible on Digital LCD display.

Both the Urban XU700 and Sport XS750 can be pedaled as a conventional bicycle or with the pedal assist.  Riders take advantage of four levels of assist – 35, 75, 150, and 300 percent – which sends the rider racing up hills and around the city with ease.  The OHM rechargeable lithium-ion battery delivers a range of 56 miles (90km).

OHM bikes have caught the attention of the mainstream media, too, with positive reviews in Outside, USA Today, Wall Street Journal, Wired magazine, AutoWeek and the Vancouver Sun.

Clean Green Transportation

Expanding the bicycle network is an important step to support a clean, green and healthy mode of transportation. OHM bikes produce zero emissions during operation. The OHM Lithium-ion battery consumes approximately one K.W. of energy to fully recharge.
