“The throttle doesn’t work whenever you have it on pedal assist zero and right now I am riding it in gear four at an average speed of 11.7 mph.”

Testing the maximum speed with pedal assist

• Scott wants to see what speed they can achieve using only pedal assist.
• They expect to reach a speed of 28 M/h but are not sure if it will stop at 20 M/h.
• They try using the throttle and find that it is not limited by the pedal assist level.

“This should take us all the way up to 28 M/h. It might stop at 20, I’m not sure. So let’s go ahead and see what we can get out of it just using the throttle.”

Testing different pedal assist levels

• Scott switches to pedal assist level one and tests the speed.
• They comfortably ride at 15-16 mph in pedal assist level one.
• They move up to pedal assist level two and ride at about 18 mph.
• In pedal assist level three, they still reach 18 mph but feel like they are ghost pedaling.

“We’re in pedal assist level one, we’re going to see how fast we can go with that setting. And we’re just moving along here and we’re going to see if it feels any different as we go through the pedal assist levels.”

Power on hills and torque sensor

• He mentions that bikes with torque sensors provide more power when going uphill.
• They expect to experience the most power on hills.
• The Mokwheel Scoria is classified as a class 3 bike, allowing speeds up to 28 M/h.

“I’ve mentioned before that when having torque sensors, it really helps when you’re going up a hill or something like that. So that’s where we’re going to feel the most power out of it.”

Display and battery level information

• Scott discusses the display on the Mokwheel Scoria.
• They mention that the display looks good in the shade but is difficult to see in the sun.
• The indicators on the left and right show battery levels but do not provide wattage or percentage information.

Throttle-only hill climb test

• Scott performs a hill climb test using only the throttle.
• They mention that the pedal assist level doesn’t matter for the throttle.
• The Mokwheel Scoria performs well, easily climbing the hill.

Unexpected encounter and interruption

• Scott gets stung by a bee during the review, causing discomfort and interrupting the filming.
• They express the need to cut the review short in case they need to take medication for the sting.

“I don’t know what that was, it did not want to be there and I didn’t want it to be there either. Ouch, look, that’s where that bee stung me. Not sure how that’s going to affect me, so we’re going to head home in case I need to take some Benadryl or something like that.”

Restarting the event and battery range test

• Scott restarts the battery range test and notes that they have a full battery.
• They will test how many miles they can get from the Mokwheel Scoria.
• The specific distance covered will be measured for accurate results.

“We are going to restart this event. Oh, and I’m only doing this before the distance part. We’re going to keep some of the info that we did before, but we have full battery here again.”

Brake test results

• He performs the brake test, reaching speeds of 23-26 mph.
• The Mokwheel Scoria stops within 26-31 feet, which is considered good.

Utility Bike Performance and Features

• The video host explains that the bike is a Class 3 bike and proceeds to test its performance, starting with the throttle.
• The throttle provides a controlled and smooth takeoff without jerking.

“It’s kind of a slow takeoff but it doesn’t jerk you so that’s a nice thing about the throttle. It feels controlled.”

Pedal Assist Test

• Scott tests the pedal assist feature to see how quickly it reaches top speed.
• The bike is set to gear five and pedal assist level five.
• The bike shows quick pickup and easily moves into higher gears, reaching top speed in 19 seconds.

Top Speed Timed Test

• A combination of throttle and pedal assist is used to test the bike’s top speed.
• The bike reaches a maximum speed of 28 mph.

“28 mph, that’s how fast I can get it up to. But it says it’s a class three, so 28 mph.”

Off-Road Capability

• The bike is taken off-road on a boardwalk with decent tread.
• The host describes the bike as having all kinds of functionality and easily cutting across the beach.
• It is not recommended for mountain bike trails due to its design as a utility bike.

“This thing has all kinds of functionality…it tears right through it. I mean, I’m pedaling, we’re going to pedal assist level three, let me see what the throttle does. Yeah, if you’re having a little bit of trouble pedaling, that throttle is going to get you right through it.”

Battery Level and Mileage Check

Low Battery and Range Anxiety

• Scottt continues riding with low battery power, gradually noticing the decreasing battery level.
• At 10% battery power, the bike is still providing a steady rate of power without pulsing.
• The host expresses concern about being far from home and the uncertainty of how much farther the bike can go before the battery completely dies.

“We’re down to three bars of battery and we are still pretty far from home…we’re cruising at 12-13 mph and actually, it’s pretty comfortable…I’ve been on some bikes that once they get into like the single-digit numbers, they start to pulse, this one is not.”

The Performance of the Mokwheel Scoria

• The throttle works without any pulsing or issues.
• The bike travels 8 miles using the throttle and 10 miles on pedal assist.
• Ghost pedaling occurs when using pedal assist at higher levels.
