I love my Mokwheel. Everyone talks about their bad customer service, and it is slower than a bigger company, but when my display bracket broke after 3 months of use, they sent me a new one and didn't hesitate. I bought 2 bikes from them so far and they have been almost flawless.
Excellent customer support
Well if everyone is talking about the bad service, yours is perhaps the exception.
what models do you have?
i got the Asphalt cuz i didn't want a fat tire.
I heard you like fat ones .@@ericolens3
If you hold down the three bottom buttons on the control you will find the speed setting to unlock it. I set mine to 61. It now goes 31mph on throttle. I also turned the intensity down to 1 making it much smoother on power. I also installed a stem extender to raise the handlebars for more upright riding.
Can you elaborate more on what power settings/adjustments are available from the display?
Yes but FYI : Remember to have a Motorcycle endorsement .. Thats over National average of 22mp law. Also WEAR A HELMET cost to Live if you don't die really expensive
We are of equal height and I considered this and the Freedom by Wired. Went with Wired due to overall package and comfort….and your AMAZING video!😊
Hey love your channel-always think about three’s company watching you roll around Venice/Santa Monica. Great reviews! What a life you got out there!!! Awesome
My fav E-Bike! Great job as always!
I like that you test the lian mits of the bike when you do your reviews as most others don't so that we can a good idea if the bike is a good choice, especially on hills and throttle only. always include if any ghost peddle also. thanks
Great video! I ❤ my Mokwheel Tor Plus. Mokwheel is the only proprietary brand that uses that electric inverter & solar panels. My bike goes 34 mph upon tweaking the setting. This bike is the shiznit!!
Also if you hold I believe all three or top and bottom buttons you go into another setting where you can put the throttle up to 30 and the pedal assistant to 5 and the torque kick in right away.
Nice bike I like the port for the inverter that's awesome
Good video, you have the best. Thank you
You crack me up. Dude! Those Cali trails are dope and so is that bike! Keep me in mind if you don't want it. Lol!!
Excellent video Ordered one and eagerly waiting for Mine 🤠👍
what color ?
also did you get any of their bundled accessories?
@@ericolens3 I have the Camo Basalt only rode a few times and already almost 100 miles on it..🤠
I wanted a moped style for a long time but the more videos i watch, im leaning towards something like this. I want to be able to pedal when i want. Also these look a lot less illegal
Hey tail! I’m wondering if you can review the 1CYCLE E bike, I wanna see if it is a good bike
That is a nice-looking bike. I like your reviews. I have watched at least 20 of your reviews. What do you do with all the e-bikes you review?
stores them in a shed
im not sure if hes a donator/seller of some of his bikes.
but i do know he owns a storage shed for his bikes.
You have 2 M buttons so one is the assistant and the other one is the eco/sport mode
Question from a brand new sub...do you ever mod the bikes you review or even use them after your visit go up? Don't take this as aggressive or being fresh ive got an eahora romeo pro coming and want to upgrade/mod the thing.
TY so much! What kind of cal burned per hour could you expect on maybe PA 3 at 20ish mph?
Hi there, can you review the Eahora Romeo Pro E-bike please
How does this compare to the wired freedom in your opinion?
What do you do with all these bikes after you review them?
Love your videos! You should try the walfisk ebike, for 2000 bucks it has a speed of 45 mph and a 60ah battery
Which walfisk bike
How do these fat tire bikes handle trails? I have a commenter ebike and looking for something with full suspension to take on some moderate mountain biking trails.
E-mountain bikes seem to be much more expensive ($5k+).
Does it come with any bike racks
Bro I love your videos. I don’t know how you didn’t try the fucare Gemini ebike yet. Bro trust me, it will be the best ebike you reviewed so far on your channel. Only for 1599 usd and top speed is 32mph and range is about 100 miles only on throttle. The bike is pretty crazy for the price.
Considering this bike I hijack my mother in laws fucare all the time and it’s a fun bike. She only paid 800 a year ago though, now 1200. Do you have the Gemini?
With the torque sensor, are the 5 levels of PAS programmable?
Crazy I have this bike. Maybe the first one to get it. And I was waiting for your review smh. My review is not as good as yours. But I'm watching 😂
Hey man I still enjoy and appreciate yours too 👍🏼 lol
What's the best ebike with a throttle with the most power , reliability and any cost?
Can you do a review on the cirq x1 premiere ?
Hey, i been looking into electric bikes lately as i need a commuter for getting to and from work this winter thats faster than my regular mountain bike and ive been looking at 2 bikes so far. Just wondering if you could give me your opinion on which would be the better option. the first one is a bit more expensive than i want to spend really but seems like a smarter choice since it is more popular, that being the RadRover 6 Plus, then the other one is from Engwe which i havent seen much about anywhere but specifically its the Engwe e26. the engwe e26 is alot cheaper... and has a better top speed reachin upwards of 30mph which sounds nice. the RadRover 6 Plus is on sale atm for around 1500 after tax but looks like it will be off sale before ill be able to buy it which is why i am looking at the engwe e26. im just unsure how well of a company engwe is when it comes to parts and stuff like that. if you or anyone could give me an opinion here it would be appreciated. shoot even if there are other bike reccomendations for anything around lets say 1000-1400 USD i wouldnt mind hearing those as well.
Is it easy to change the torque sensor to a cadence sensor?
Sana All may MTB EBike
I would hate the throttle on the left side. But to each their own. Still leaning towards the WF.
i have a left throttle, but now you got me thinking, what if I just unscrewed it and then rescrewed it on the RIGHT (correct) side)
mokwheel has quick release cables for all their electronics.
Reviews for this format of ebike should just start with: "Just get the Wired Freedom"
@NoInfoFound That might not always be the case, even it is now.
Nice Video! But I couldnt see the camouflaged model in the link .
Is there.
try again its on their website.
You are my favorite ebike reviewer. Can you do some more expensive models and see if it's worth the price difference? I'm seriously looking at the cannondale speed but can't find reviews. But im open to anything. This will be my first bike. 6,1 240. 2 herniated discs so need to lose weight and excercise low impact. Im open to any budget
Hey does anyone know if there is an available back rack for this bike yet?
Wait when he did the basalt st how did he forget that up down and light can change the top speed
Yeh, your bike reviews are great; the bikes are good you have great charisma etcetera, but dude -where’d you live? Here I am trying to concentrate on the bikes and what you’re saying and all, but all I can do is think ‘wow, wish I lived there!’ Film on a bad day once in a while and make the rest of us feel human. Erm, I mean, great job keep it up 😜
does so-cal even have bad weather? 🤔
from what i hear its 90% perfect weather throughout the year.
I doubt that it has an inverter that makes no sense.
What you would have there would be a boost converter that takes 24v to 48 or whatever the bike battery is.
I should know I charge my bike like that all the time.
i love my mokwheel basalt st. it can go 31mph on throttle unlike the higher end obsidian and l with an integrated tail light which I find amusing. I put a ncx suspension post and its almost like a full suspension. With the price point get a wired freedom instead IMO. Happy Thanksgiving Matt, my fave ebike reviewer!
If you like this bike but need a step through frame, would the Cyrusher Trax with torque sensor be the closest competitor? Anyone know if the Trax is any good?
Is the Mokwheel made in US or is it imported? Pretty sure the wired freedom is imported. Thanks in advance.
i think most e bikes that are US have their bikes assembled out of country or have parts sourced out outside.
names like Bafang and Chaoyang just sound too chinese to me. but thats just my assumptions.
but yeah, quality battiers ARE KOREAN, i mean the ones that are LG or Samsung are Korean that is.
In the first few minutes, when you say it has full suspension, a big 20ah battery, so I thought this seems like a really good bike, so I quickly clicked the link in the description and hoping it’s around $1500, but nope, nowhere close to $1500, but at $2300, wired freedom still beats it.
WF was going to cost me $200 for shipping plus sales tax. Mokwheel is free shipping and no sales tax plus all accessories are 50% off.
@@Therberg2500 first thing first, it’s not $200 shipping like people bought it before, they increase the shipping to $325, which is a lot, even though the new 2024 wired freedom with all the upgrades and they still claimed price didn’t change, it’s still $1999, but they increased the shipping, this is where they can get more money off their customers. As far as I know, Pretty much all other e-bike companies offer free shipping, lectric, velotric, aventon, radpower, magicycle, heybike, juiced, etc, just to name a few, however, wired company is probably the only one that is not offer free shipping(they don’t even do Black Friday deal), they add shipping so that they can advertise it as just under $2000, so people think it is a great deal, but they charge $300 for shipping so they can mitigate the cost to manufacture. For some people out there, $2300 is probably still a good deal, but not to me. I might actually bought it only if it offered free shipping so that it is indeed just under $2000 before tax.
I was an early buyer and got a trailer with it. Now you get a pile of accessories for $99 more and the trailer. The only drawback for me is no rear rack available.
@@lenlaskowski7374a rear rack should be available for it soon.
May I ask what you do with all your ebikes ??
Storage
What would the inverter be used for ?
Powering a laptop, camping stuff like that.
Is there an ebike that has mid and hub motors? Just curious 🤔
I dont see any reason it wouldnt work if the hub motor was in the front but i really really doubt any company is producing a bike like that, theres just no reason
yeah, try searching "dual motor ebike"
citizen cycle uploaded some of his project bikes.
he has a left throttle for one motor and a right throttle for the other.
i forget if its thumb for one and twist for the other, or if both were twist throttles. but check him out.
i used to watch him a lot but, for personal usage our tastes diverged. i dont see myself on a bike in excess of 35mph, yet he LOVES faster ebikes. so he literally made one with a dual motor.
idk if he also has a tripple motor
front hub, mid drive, and rear hub, but hes the type of guy to do that.
also he LOVES fat tires, and I hate them. not a jab on Citizen Cycle, hes a great guy but its a matter of personal usage and MY PURCHASE. but hes fun to watch.
all in all, i love ebike youtubers cuz they lemme see lots of ebikes and how to best optimize them.
Idk man it Huge and i'm 5'8. But My bottom is sore and Valves always suck
Very cool.. They should be wagging their tails back at the main office after this review 😂
Would you prefer this bike over the wired freedom?
No
Please review the Biktrix Juggernaut XD Duo.
Thank you for this review...was down to Wired Freedom vs. This bike...Freedom it is.
The freedom is faster.
Great video as always.
HOWEVER it always annoys me how you never use a phone holder on the handlebars for your own phone. Using one hand can be dangerous!
looks good but i think the wired freedom was better....peace out
Bro how many bikes do you have lol
11.22.23😮
Actually if that hub is a sustained 1000w it's not legal either per the classifications, 750w is the max.
This company doesn’t even know what class 2 is.
This or the wired??
Definitely wired freedom, unless this is cheaper by at least $500 bucks, but it’s not the case here.
Doood! Why no Biktrix?
Class 2 and 1000w😂it looks like this company has no idea what a class 2 e-bike is. At 1000w, it’s no longer any class of e-bike according to the e-bike law.
You need to stop calling torque sensors as "pro exercise". It is forced exercise for high speed. Cadence is always optional exercise, but it is more "exercise payoff" by reducing motor/battery draw by pedalling harder and rewarding you with more range. The advantage of torque sensor is speed control with just your feet. You can still get fairly efficient exercise by using low assist mode, but cadence is better for giving you a specific target speed appropriate for the traffic/path conditions.
Do more mid drive cheapos
Yet no real good options to mount a rugged rear rack.... talk about lame!
Coming from someone who has used ATVs and dirt bikes in the past, having the throttle on the left is so weird.
Nice bike but id rather have a right hand throttle.
This bike with a 1000 watt motor is just as “illegal” as the much better and less expensive Wired Freedom, which ships as a legal class 2 but with a fully programmable display. You can’t be just pregnant and 1000 watt sustained is illegal to ride on roads and bike paths. If you are considering this illegal bike, why not pay less and get better components, a bigger battery, and a much more powerful 60v system? Why would you make a 1000 watt illegal bike that only goes 25mph? Tiny front chain ring and they can’t even get the class 2 sticker right😂. But you can plug your toaster into your bike😂🤣😂🤣
CA now allows 1000w motors...I believe. However, if you disengaged the speed safety protocols or can throttle above 20mph your ebike does not qualify as an electric bicycle under CA law and is now legally a motorized vehicle or motorcycle and does not benefit from lax ebike rules such as using bike lanes, paths or trails much less riding on beaches, parks or boardwalks. Not to mention this motorized vehicle must now be registered, plated and the rider must have a motorcycle license and liability insurance. Every time this Jeff Spicoli wannabe makes a video he is breaking about a dozen laws and sets a bad example for youths and minors. He is a cancer and should be arrested.
These 20%ers (the old 80/20 rule) will ruin it for everyone.
“Less expensive wired freedom”, nope, they are about the same price, I bet you didn’t know that wired freedom is about $2300, basically the same price, mokwheel is free shipping along with so many other e-bikes.
@@johnrob3215even if CA allows 1000w, but all other states only allow 750w.
@@blackwhirlwind1245 I believe 6-7 states are at 1000. Expect all to be there in 12-24. My advice is if you buy from here out, buy 1000 and don't worry about it too much.
Agreed

These 20%ers (the old 80/20 rule) will ruin it for everyone. If youre an 80% and dont speak up dont whine when your state takes away all the advantages of using an ebike.
Due to increased accidents and injuries, particularly among yutes, many states are reconsidering their lax ebike rules.
Hey again is this ebike UL APPROVED also try taking a little slower and not running over pedestrians while doing an advertisement you just blow past everyone not caring about them, giving bike riders a bad name.
0 stars! DO NOT ORDER FROM THIS COMPANY. Cool RUclips unboxing videos but don’t be fooled. It is now well over the time my bike was supposed to ship and I have already been charged but can’t get through to customer service. Usually with a legit purchase, the transaction is pending until shipment. Not in this case. I was charged immediately. I have been calling daily and staying on hold for hours with no answer. I have left voicemails and also emailed. Nothing. I am now seeing other reviews stating that they have major problems with the bike (manufacture problems and shipping damage) but cannot get through to them. I believe this because I cannot get through. This is the worst purchase I’ve ever made. I would rather spend double the price I spent than deal with a crappy company that can’t even answer their phone or stand by the promises on their website. The positive reviews are fake.
Compared to the Wired Freedom this bike is garbage. Complete joke
It looks better (style wise) than the Wired IMO, but looks aren't everything. Not a huge fan of Wired's bmx bars, but they are starting to grow on me.
Why does this company even try to make bikes since the Wired came out. I’m embarrassed for them. They make the same crappy 48v weak heavy bikes that were cool in 2018.
They cut every corner there is when it comes to support.
EXTREME BUYER BEWARE: only get this bike or any bike from Mokwheel if you enjoy having an absolute NIGHTMARE of a time dealing with support. There are many other bikes better than this for the same price or less.
