BikeRide finds and shows you the best prices of the bikes you want to buy. Prices constantly change and it’s impossible to compare them all yourself.
We search for prices on over 120 bike retailers to guarantee that we find the lowest prices – to save you time and money.
It’s a promise we stand behind: If you find a lower price on a bike elsewhere, we will sell it to you for 10% less. For example, if you find a bike for $480 that we have listed at $500, we will offer you to buy it for $432 through BikeRide. The bike must be the same color and size, sold in the US and not include the use of a coupon.
If you find a lower price, email us at [email protected] with documentation of the price. We’re committed to making sure that the cost of a bike does not keep you from cycling!
Facts
Summary of Reviews
We have read all expert and user reviews on the Mukkpet Tank. In summary, this is what cyclists think.
8 reasons to buy
- Experts compliment the smooth ride on pavement.
- The Tank has lights with brake activation, fenders, a bell, and a rear rack rated for 55lb.
- The cast wheels “look great” and eliminate the risk of broken spokes.
- The rear suspension does a good job of absorbing typical road bumps, say reviewers.
- The Tank’s ability to climb relatively steep hills, albeit at low speeds, impresses testers.
- Reviewers appreciate having a color screen at this price point.
- Testers commend the tidy cabling.
- An expert praises the nimble handling.
11 reasons not to buy
- The bike's user manual and product webpage have differing specifications for rider fit, range, and weight.
- The 35” minimum seat height doesn't match the stated rider fit of 5'4" to 6'4”. A tester says riders above 5’11” will need a longer seatpost to be comfortable.
- Testers lament the considerable motor lag of one to two seconds.
- Mukkpet says the bike weighs 70lb. Multiple reviewers call it very heavy at 86lb.
- The 2A charger means lengthy charging times.
- The warranty doesn’t cover water damage to the display.
- The suspension is noisy and lacks adjustment, and experts agree it isn’t suited to off-road riding.
- The “trash” fork bottoms out easily.
- Experts question Mukkpet's claim that the Tank can support 400lb.
- A heavy Class 3 e-bike that is supposed to support 400lb should have hydraulic disc brakes.
- A tester says the motor’s torque feels like that of a 500W motor, not one rated at 750W. A torque rating isn't provided by Mukkpet.
Bottom line
Mukkpet’s Tank is a folding fat-tire e-bike with a 750W motor, 720Wh battery, and full suspension. Experts praise the included accessories, smooth ride, and good speed. They also like the color screen and nimble handling. However, the bike is very heavy at 86lb, and the non-adjustable suspension is limited and noisy. Furthermore, the pedal assistance suffers from severe lag, and the stated rider fit is questionable. Reviewers deem the Tank good value for those that really want a budget e-commuter with fat tires and rear suspension, but alternatives like the Ride1UP Portola and Lectric XP 3.0 should be considered.
