As urban mobility continues to evolve across European cities, expectations for electric bicycles are becoming increasingly clear.
Commuters are looking for bikes that are lighter, quieter and cleaner, require minimal maintenance, and offer reliable safety combined with a restrained, modern design.
Responding to these practical urban needs, Mokwheel introduces two new city e-bikes: Flint Pro (step-over) and Flint ST Pro (step-through).
Both models share the same lightweight, low-maintenance platform, while the different frame designs accommodate a wide range of riding preferences and everyday city scenarios.
Why More Urban Riders Are Choosing Belt Drive
Traditional chain drivetrains often come with familiar drawbacks in daily city use:
They require regular lubrication, attract dirt, generate noise, and increase long-term maintenance effort.
The Flint Pro series replaces the chain with a Gates single-speed belt drive, fundamentally improving the riding experience:
- No lubrication required
- No stains on clothing
- Virtually silent operation
- Longer service life
- Lower overall system weight
Equally important, the Flint Pro uses a single-speed belt system, without internal or external gears.
This is not a limitation, but a deliberate optimisation for urban riding:
- Simpler mechanical structure
- Reduced risk of failure
- Lower maintenance demands
- Direct and efficient power transfer
For riders who value efficiency, cleanliness and reliability, this approach offers a highly refined solution.
Step-Over vs Step-Through — Two Frame Designs, Two Riding Experiences
Flint Pro (Step-Over)
Designed for a more dynamic riding position, the step-over frame provides increased stiffness and stability.
It suits riders who prefer a traditional bicycle feel and a sportier posture.
Flint ST Pro (Step-Through)
The low step-through frame allows effortless mounting and dismounting, making it ideal for stop-and-go urban riding, carrying loads, or everyday commuting.
Weight comparison:
Model Weight
Flint Pro 15.94 kg
Flint ST Pro 17.74 kg
Both models qualify as truly lightweight urban e-bikes, making them easy to carry upstairs, combined with public transport, or manoeuvre through dense city environments.
Key Features and Advantages
Gates Belt Drive — Designed for Everyday Simplicity
The primary advantage of a belt system lies in its reliability and low maintenance:
- No oil or lubrication
- Resistant to dirt and moisture
- Clothing-friendly
- Near-silent performance
The single-speed configuration further reduces complexity, making the Flint Pro series especially well suited for daily city use.
Lightweight Construction — A Core Advantage in Urban Riding
With a weight of just 15.94 kg for the Flint Pro and 17.74 kg for the Flint ST Pro, both models stand out within the urban e-bike category.
A lighter e-bike offers clear everyday benefits:
- Easier to carry up stairs
- Less effort when pushing or parking
- More responsive handling
- Quicker starts and acceleration
In cities such as Berlin, Munich and Hamburg, lightweight e-bikes are increasingly becoming the preferred choice.
250W EU-Compliant Motor with 35Nm Torque
The drive system fully complies with EU and German regulations:
- 250W rated motor output
- 35Nm torque, sufficient for city gradients and smooth acceleration
Four assistance modes:
- ECO
- TOUR
- SPORT
- TURBO
These modes allow riders to adapt support levels to different routes and riding styles.
Up to 100 km Range — Designed for Everyday Urban Distances
With a maximum range of up to 100 km, the Flint Pro series comfortably covers most daily mobility needs:
- Commuting to and from work
- Weekend city rides
- Urban and suburban travel
Less frequent charging translates into a more relaxed ownership experience.
Torque Sensor — Natural and Intuitive Assistance
The torque sensor measures pedalling force in real time and adjusts motor support accordingly, resulting in a more natural riding feel:
- Smooth starts
- Linear acceleration
- Improved energy efficiency
- Intuitive response to rider input
This is especially beneficial in urban traffic with frequent stops and starts.
Practical, Purposeful Urban Equipment
- Magura MTA2 hydraulic disc brakes for confident stopping power
- Integrated front light and internal cable routing for a clean appearance
- Ergonomic leather air-cushion grips for long-term comfort
- Rear rack for commuting, shopping and daily transport
