Lightning LS-218: A new, extreme, electrically-powered bike from the USA: 228 Nm of torque, weighing in at 225 kg, Brembo brakes, and a top speed of over 185 mph. The LS-218 is the 'production' version of the first electric bike to break through the 200 mph threshold, a feat achieved on the legendary Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah, where the 218 earned its name from the top speed of 218 mph reached by the prototype bike on that occasion. The model already boasts an impressive reputation on the track, participating in the TTCPX series, the Le Mans 24 Hours, and the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb. The Lightning LS-218 is powered by a liquid-cooled permanent magnet electric engine, delivering 200 hp and 168 Nm of torque. The LS-218 uses high-grade components, with Ohlins suspension, Brembo brakes and forged magnesium Marchesini wheel rims.
