#MOSH BIKES SERIAL#

Since Serial 1 expects riders to attach their phone to the handlebars to view ride metrics, run Google Maps-powered navigation and manage the bike, it stuck to a very basic control option that just uses a few LEDs to show things like battery life and assist settings. These smart features mean pairing the bike with an app, and arguably too much of the bike’s smarts now rely on a smartphone to enjoy. The IoT device charges off the bike’s main battery but has its own battery, which Serial 1 claims can last for up to 2 months even if the main battery is removed. It can also allow owners to lock down the power and restrict new registrations with the bike, making it harder for a would-be thief to ride away on the bike and ever get it up and running again. This provides tools like pin-point location for the bike and alerts when the bike is moved or even jostled.

It has an Internet of Things device built into the bike, which has Bluetooth and cellular connections, as well as GPS and an accelerometer. One of the big features Serial 1 is marketing with this new model of the Mosh/Cty is its smart system. Once they’re lined up with the discs, it’s easy to keep the brakes lined up, as the Mosh/Cty sits on thru-axle wheels.įor all the quality components going on, which help justify the high price, a few parts just feel extra cheap by comparison - for example, the fairly basic hand grips and the simple Wellgo pedals. The bike stops with powerful dual-piston hydraulic brakes. There’s also an extra-bright headlight attached to the center of the handlebars. That brake light action appears to be accelerometer-based but is highly sensitive and a great safety feature. The headlight on the steerer tube comes on with the bike, and the taillights glow by default but get even brighter when the bike is slowing down. The bike has integrated head and tail lights.

The unique frame geometry is smartly done, as the chainstays remain above the line of the belt drive, making it possible to remove the belt without needing to have a bolted break in the frame (something you’ll see on plenty of other belt-drive bikes). Serial 1 built the Mosh/Cty with a Gates carbon belt drive and a single-speed rear hub. This ebike has an interesting mix of a hybrid design and a more cruiser feel with a head tube angle that seems like it has the front wheel reaching out extra far forward. That’s not to say it is light, at 48 pounds (21.7kg), but it’s surprising for a bike that has so much going on. It’s an eye-catching detail and a smart one, because it’s the easiest place to grab the bike to carry it.ĭespite looking like a fairly chunky bike - what with the 2.8-inch-thick tires that weigh over four pounds on their own - the Mosh/Cty actually proves surprisingly light. A single line of tube cuts across the front triangle, running parallel to the ground, and linking the top and bottom tubes.

It has a unique frame design that will catch eyes, and the downtube flowing into the chainstays emphasizes all the muscle sitting in the bottom bracket, which houses the Brose Power Mag S mid-drive motor. The Serial 1 Mosh/Cty is a striking bike to behold. White tyres, brassy accents, glossy paints and a brown drive belt gave an aesthetic touch to the look.(Image credit: Future) Serial 1 Mosh/Cty review: design and features The 2020 prototype or tribute e-bike gave a unique touch to the leather saddle and grips. According to Frank, that motorcycle was the inspiration behind starting the Serial 1 e-bike brand. The first e-bike of Serial 1 that was publicly displayed was inspired by Harley-Davidson's first motorcycle from more than 100 years ago.

As per the report by Electrek, Aaron Frank, the brand director of Serial 1, said, “We are thrilled now to offer a limited-edition that so faithfully captures the iconic look and feel of that first prototype, and to use this moment as a springboard to launch our S1 Series that will see even more exclusive and highly-desirable Serial 1 e-bike models in the future.” Deliveries may start in the last quarter of this year. The 650 units will be evenly distributed between the US and European markets. A report stated that Serial 1 will produce 650 individual units of S1 Mosh/Tribute electric bicycles.

The S1 Mosh/Tribute closely resembles the prototype's features. Serial 1 was launched in October last year and it unveiled an original vintage-looking prototype e-bike. Serial 1, an e-bicycle company that emerged from Harley-Davidson's original electric bicycle programme, will now sell a limited number of S1 Mosh/Tribute e-bikes. Harley-Davidson's first electric bike is set to go on sale.
