Bottom line
The Mokwheel Tarmac is a commuter e-bike with a 750W motor and 720Wh battery. The bike is available as a step-through or step-over, but only the step-over is tested. Reviewers appreciate the smooth pedal assist, strong brakes, powerful motor, and comfortable ride. The step-over build's knobby tires offer good grip on dirt and light gravel. Complaints are minimal, but the fender and battery cover rattle, and the display disappoints. The bike is also unsuitable for shorter riders. Overall, testers consider the Tarmac a well-rounded e-commuter.Expert Reviews
