  • I took the brand new, less expensive VanMoof S4 out for a full day exploring Greenpoint, Brooklyn. Come see how the new S4 and X4 compare to the VanMoof S5 and A5 and why you maybe should consider this one over those. Come watch!

    I'm aware of the difference between a nanometer and newton-metre I just do too many videos mentioning chipsets and so it's a habit to say the word 🤦‍♂️😂

    This review is super helpful, it confirmed that I shouldn't even consider the S4. 38% is a lot when you just need it from mobility, but if it's for recreation, the differences sound totally worth it.

    I have always liked these Van Moofs since i first saw them on the streets of Amsterdam years ago; I figured they were probably not cheap - cool design = more $$$ - but these e-bikes are getting a bit too pricey nowadays, and the fact you have to stress every time you leave it somewhere, worrying if it will be there when you go back is no fun!

    Just a notable downside in my opinion on the S4 in comparison to the S3 and S5 is, that the higher gear won't help you much in gaining more speed after the motor gets off due to the speed limit. If you go downhill you'll often quickly reach the top motor speed and won't have any resistance while pedaling. My S3's highest gear just kicks in at 26km/h when the motor turns off and allows me to go even faster by myself and I would never want to miss that! But honestly the S5 isn't an option either for that price 😅 maybe a second hand S3 is the way to go 🙋

    Great video Sir, i still think it is a hard price to swallow, because some e-motorbikes are getting very low, of course, requiring license and the motorbike related conditions but still providing more range and sometimes more features, now even tho, this market is also improving

    Bankrupted! ! I knew that was going to happen since I was investigating a E-bike to buy. Nearly all owners commented how often it would brake down and getting it repaired is a nightmare. Luckily I had the sense to pass it up. Today I have a cannondale road bike made in the late 1980's and a 750w bafang motor. Is that outfit more reliable that a vanmoof, yes....

    It is scary that you don't actually "own" the bike owing to so many features dependent on Vanmoof. Also, repairability is a concern as most of the parts used are proprietary.

    I enjoyed this review even though I have a physical disability, and can't ride a pushbike. However, when you mentioned the torque, you described it in Nanometres. A nanometre is a microscopic measure of length (one billlionth of a metre); what you meant was Newton-metre which a measure of force.

    I was going to get an S2 at the start of the pandemic but how do you ride one without being accused of being a beardy hipster? (no offense). I live in the burbs and recently there’s been this one beardy guy riding an electronic skateboard around my neighborhood making me think which left turn did you miss and end up in my neck of the burbs?
