When I see an adult on a bicycle, I do not despair for the future of the human race.

Think of bicycles as rideable art that can just about save the world.

Come in and ride the future of car replacement now! OHM electric-assist bicycles will carry you and your groceries down the road and up that hill with great efficiency! A fantastic bike, well designed and extremely fun to ride; stop by and see for yourself!...

Thinking of parking that car more often? We would love to help you build a highly utilitarian bike for your daily needs, including powerful electric-assist systems that allow very efficient movement of one (or more!) and their cargo. Makes possible the notion of parking, or better yet, selling one's car... An Xtracycle kit on an existing bike, a dedicated Long-Tail or Yuba Mundo , perhaps pulling a trailer, allow very large and heavy loads to be transported swiftly and with little fuss. It feels amazing to be pedaling hard with a quiet yet powerful motor magnifying your effort, maintaining between 12 and 23 mph in most situations...

Thank you for all the support!
