The Mokwheel Basalt is a do-everything fat-tyre electric bike built for riders who want one machine for the daily commute, gravel tracks and weekend trail riding. A 750W rear hub motor (peaking at 1100W) with over 90Nm of torque pulls strongly from a standstill, while the high-capacity 48V 19.6Ah (940Wh) removable battery delivers a genuine 60-80 mile range. A torque-and-cadence sensor blends the five assist levels smoothly, and the bike doubles as a portable power bank with optional solar charging.
Cushioned 26 x 4.0in fat tyres and a 110mm adjustable suspension fork soak up rough ground, and TEKTRO hydraulic disc brakes give confident stopping. The sturdy 6061 aluminium frame carries up to 450lb.

- TEKTRO hydraulic discs and Shimano 7-speed gearing
Please note: with a 750W motor, throttle and 28mph assist, the Basalt exceeds the UK 250W/15.5mph EAPC limit. It is an off-road / private-land machine and is not road-legal in the UK.
A Closer Look at the Mokwheel Basalt
The Basalt is built around a 750W rear hub motor (peaking at 1100W) delivering over 90Nm of torque, well beyond a standard EAPC’s output, paired with a large 48V 19.6Ah (940Wh) removable battery for a genuine 60-80 mile range. A torque-and-cadence sensor blends the five assist levels smoothly rather than delivering assistance in noticeable steps, and the bike doubles as a portable power bank with optional solar charging — a genuinely useful feature away from mains power.
Cushioned 26 x 4.0in fat tyres and a 110mm adjustable suspension fork are matched to the higher power output, soaking up rough ground that a standard-tyre commuter would struggle with, while TEKTRO hydraulic disc brakes give the stopping power that extra weight and speed demand.
Who Rides the Basalt, and Where
Please note: with a 750W motor, throttle and 28mph assist, the Basalt exceeds the UK’s 250W/15.5mph EAPC limit, as stated above. It is an off-road / private-land machine and is not road-legal in the UK. It suits riders who want maximum power and fat-tyre versatility for private land, gravel tracks or off-grid use — including the solar-charging capability — rather than a road-legal daily commuter.
Setup & Care
The 110mm adjustable front suspension should be set to your weight before your first ride — check the supplied guidance for correct sag. TEKTRO hydraulic brakes need standard bedding-in, and given the higher torque output, check the rear hub’s spoke tension periodically as fat-tyre wheels see more stress under hard acceleration. Charge the 940Wh battery per Mokwheel’s guidance, and if using solar charging, note that panel output will be significantly slower than a mains charger.
