I'm sure the ride will be better than on the S3, but not having the matrix display is a really big thing for me personally. I don't like having to use my phone in all weather conditions, especially because the display isn't visible at all in direct sunlight and with sunglasses on (iPhone 12). Thanks for the video, I'll do my own testdrive soon :)
It would be nice to have a smaller display, instead of the rings but let's see. It's also a bit getting used to it. I believe that VM already ran some tests and tried to understand whether people like it or not. :)
What is the IPX rating for this bike, and what is the maximum miles this bike can go, Can you attach a rack on the bike.
the top speed in the US is 20 mph
yes, you can attach two different rear racks, the XL rack looks like this instagram.com/s/aGlnaGxpZ2h0OjE3OTYyNTU4NzE0ODU1NzIx

Nice!! Is the frontweel engine updated in the S5 compared to previous model?
Hi there Micael, yes the front wheel motor of S5/A5 is stronger with 68Nm boost torque, meaning it accelerates faster than the S3/X3 (59Nm). The engine is also more efficient, the bicycle has a smaller battery compared to the previous model but the same range.
I had a test ride as well in Amsterdam. The frame is smaller then my S2, but for my height ( 1.83) ok. The performance is much better then the S2. The bike is really silent. Looking forward receiving my ordered S5. I really enjoyed the S5, a significant improvement compared to the S2.
Glad to hear it. 🙌 Congratulations on your S5 already. Hopefully you'll get it in September. 🤞
This is great to hear. I’m also looking to upgrade from my S2, but waiting to test ride in a hilly area before ordering.
how is the paddel assist? ive heard that you have to give more power yourself to activate the assist?
@@tomfritz6257 previous VanMoofs are giving the push according to the assist level so it doesn’t matter how hard or soft you pedal you‘d get a constant support until the assist levels top km value is reached
now with the torque sensor its different since the bike knows how much pressure you put on, the more pressure on pedal the stronger the support is going to be and its a more natural feeling as well as better for the gears while riding uphill
@@vanmoofer ah ok, i understand. Thank you. So lets pretend youre going to pedal full speed for half an hour, are you going to sweat?
Is it really ridable with a height of 210cm? I‘m 198cm and had to return the Cowboy C4 because of that.
Yes, It should be fine for you. VanMoof has an advantage since its possible raise the stem about 4-5 cm. ✌️
Nice, ik testrij dit weekend. De snelheid loopt op tot 31 km/u zie ik is dat op US setting of is dat de moofer app?
Het is een aangepaste VM-app. Ik heb gehoord dat de productiemodellen worden beperkt tot 27 km/h. Geniet van de proefrit.
`Wat is dat geluid vanaf 3min 03 sec?
EDIT: ik lees dat het van de remmen af komt. De S3 heeft altijd piepende remmen.
Dan weet je precies wanneer er een van Moof achter je rijdt als je een bocht nadert.
de remmen :)
What are the biggest differences between the S3 & S5 in your opinion?
It's thicker and shorter :) faster (68Nm Boost Torque, compared to 59Nm of S3/X3). The e-shifter is quiet and changes the gears seamlessly. Kick-lock is also nice, you don't need to move the bike forwards or backwards anymore, it just unlocks. They reengineered all the bike parts to make them more reliable and stable. They didn't put that much importance on the looks this time, so far hand welded prototypes have ugly joints. Let's hope that it will be better with the serial production models.
The bike is technologically more advanced then the previous models, won't easily break down, if it does then it will be fixed faster than ever.
@@vanmoofer how about the torque sensor vs cadence of the S3?
@Aydin Can I tested it last week. The S5 is amazing !!! I decided to order it after that test.
I don't if you have the answer because I forgot to watch it : do you know what iphone model used for the test ride ?
glad to hear that 🙌🥳 it was an iPhone SE but you can get a SP connect case for almost any iphone model 📱
by the way consider using the below during checkout to save €100 on peace of mind services or current accessories (i.e. abus lock)
ADV-Y78Q-4S9G-HEM7
Thanks for your answer. I notice for the iphone model thanks 👍🏾
Just for your information : i tested it in Paris. I'm from France. And when I ordered it, the store made an special offer : 50% discount for Peace of mind services.
@@yvanr.2966 wow thats a really good deal! Congratulations on your order 🙌😊 officially joined the moofement!
@@vanmoofer thanks !! I'm really excited to ride it 🥰
@@yvanr.2966 😃 I know the feeling! Same here 🙌
i was wondering; what purpose do the two smaller buttons beneath the boost and ring button serve?
they will be customizable like for manual shifting, auto shifting types, bell sounds, second bell sound, but on the test bikes left one was turning on/off the lights, right one was setting the motor support levels

Moet je hard trappen als je rond de 30kph fietst? Ik heb nu een Veloretti Ace (heel tevreden mee), en die heeft ook een torque sensor net als deze nieuwe S5. Ik merk alleen dat als ik 30 ga op mn Ace dat ik behoorlijk veel aan het trappen ben. Is dat hier wat relaxter op? als ik S3 eigenaren tegenkom trappen ze nauwelijks bij 30kph!
Het was niet moeilijk om 30 km/h te halen. Maar de fietsen hadden aangepaste software en het was een beetje anders. Productiefietsen moeten een strikte beperking van 27 km/h hebben. Dat kun je pas zien als de leveringen beginnen.
@@vanmoofer als je de Amerikaanse Moofer app hebt, gaat de s5 dan net als de s3 32 km/u?
@@wiegerpoolman1615 als je er niet zeker van bent, kunnen ze de fietsen geofencen naar regio's of de toegang van andere apps tot de fiets verhinderen
@@vanmoofer als je waar niet zeker van bent?
@@wiegerpoolman1615 of Moofer zal werken met S5 🤷🏻♂️
Interesting video 👍🏼
A little bit annoying that test drive with the S5 in Hamburg are not possible. But there are only a few weeks left until my S5 arrives anyway, if Vanmoof keeps their delivery promise this time ; )
Thanks Niclas! Indeed, they are only offering test rides in Amsterdam. Next week its expected to start in Berlin (actually it had to start today on 16.08). Almost every store have the S5s as far as I know but only a few for training purposes. They are all from the same batch, with welds done by hand etc. the production models may look still a little different (hopefully better) in many perspectives.
hello, did you get your bike in time? I ordered mine in amsterdam in April, this year, hey now say the delivery will ne march 2023
@@pimjenster6740 Until now my bike has not arrived yet the current estimated shipping time is:
23.11.2022 - 29.11.2022
Hi Pim, no not there yet. Hopefully before 2023 🤞 but anything can happen any time so I am trying to keep the expectations low 😅
@@vanmoofer you better ha ha. Mine will be delivered in February - March if they keep their promises, everyday they sell new bikes sns and yhey say tjat the prodiction is on schedule, so for 6months every day lies to new customers
Mooi snel geüpload! Hoe voelde het nieuwe eshifter systeem aan? Helemaal geen overgang meer merkbaar?
Het voelt inderdaad heel soepel aan! Het is rustig en vrij van crack-geluiden. ✌
What is that strange braking noise when stopping?? i actually don't see real differences between the 2021 S3. (that's hard to tell of a video ofc)
i dont like the saddle and pedals on these bikes and it looks like their still the same. fortunately i replace it and its way better.
it comes from the brakes, apparently one of the brake pads and the disc were not well aligned therefore it made such a weird sound then push hard on the breaks.. there are many small differences.. downtube is much thicker, frame is a little smaller, almost all electronics parts of the bike etc. are re-engineered re-created like the ‘kick lock, eshifter, engine, chain tensioner.. list goes on :)
@@vanmoofer ok man thanks.
you’re very welcome vanmoofer.medium.com/vanmoof-s5-a5-test-rides-first-impressions-6026f08f00e6
Mooie video. Zelf ben ik 1.91. Kan ik hier nog op rijden of is het frame dan te klein? S3 was groter namelijk
Bedankt! Natuurlijk kun je er probleemloos mee rijden. De bovenste balk is iets lager en de banden zijn 27,5 inc in plaats van 28 zoals in S3 ✌️
Do you Think you can use the Moofer app with the New models?
I don’t think so, at least not for a while
I would be grateful, if we may still change the speed settings to US by changing the phone’s regional settings 😅
Also I would like to know if Your warranty will get voided if you use the Moofer app?
@@Clapz2Crazy what’ve I heard was like they don’t want 3rd party apps to connect to their hardware, they specially developed the new hardware with safety in focus.. if Moofer or any other app downgrades the firmware or adds additional hardware to hack the speed, then probably it will void the warranty
I weigh 130 kg and I am 195 cm tall, will this bike be good for me or should I look for a MTB
this is the from the VanMoof FAQ 👇
What is the weight limit on the VanMoof bikes?
VanMoof bicycles are all weight-tested up to 120kg. This is excluding the weight of the bike itself.
This means that up to this total weight (driver and luggage) we can guarantee that the bike does what it should.
Does the Bike assist you to 32kph like seen in the video?
the prototype bike would kick the boost until 30 km/h the rest was pedal power, then I got the info from the staff that the prototype software allows an additional %10 of boost.. the production bikes will be strictly limited to 27-28 km/h for boost (or level 4 support)
Okay thank you because I ordered mine and was just wondering, but thanks for this video it is exactly what I am looking for
@@Clapz2Crazy hello, did you get your bike in time? I ordered mine in amsterdam in April, this year, hey now say the delivery will ne march 2023
TBH, I would love to have the opportunity to use a bike in my life, other than weekend activities.
There are like no bike lanes in my city :( consider me jealous as S5 really peak my interest :-D
I can imagine, sadly bicycle road networks are still not a top priority even in the most civilized countries
only iphone can you use on vanmoof?
no, not only iphone! android as well, all you need is the vanmoof app and the matching SP connect case for your phone, for example:
amzn.to/3Ax6hfb
Kan je de moofer app koppelen om 37 km/u te gaan of op een andere manier?
Nee het is niet mogelijk. Voorlopig althans. S5 en A5 komen met nieuwe hardware.
@@vanmoofer Ah jammer zeg.. Je kan wel nog met een omweg 32 km/u toch?
@@Sam-oo2kb dat is ook nog niet zeker 🤷🏻♂️ als ze geofencing gebruiken dan kan het ook niet
@@vanmoofer Helaas geen vanmoof voor mij dan.. xDD
@@Sam-oo2kb de tijd zal het leren :)
When using the boost do you have to pedal? Could you not pedal and just use boost for a period of time?
well its a pedal assisted bicycle, therefore its mandatory to pedal,
with S3/X3 it is possible to press boost and very slowly turn the pedals to get the speed without any effort but S5/A5 have a torque sensor, so it measures the pressure on the pedals and regulates the speed/boost accordingly :)
Uzun süredir beklediğim bir videoydu. Çok teşekkürler Aydın bey. Siparişim Ekim ayında ulaşacak. Merakla bekliyorum. Bu arada servis için hediye kuponu kodunu girdim fakat kabul etmedi. :(
çok memnun oldum! şimdiden hayırlı uğurlu olsun :)
kupon için aksesuar veya servis eklemeniz gerekiyor, onun üzerinden 100€ indirim yapıyor
@@vanmoofer Çok teşekkür ederim. Yaşadığım yerin çok yakınında VanMoof mağaza, servis noktası var. 3 yıllık servis önerir misiniz? Yoksa sizce sadece dışarıdan kaza, hırsızlık sigortası yeterli mi? Kusura bakmayın çok soru sordum ama ilk e-bike'ım. :)
rica ederim, istediğin herşeyi sorabilirsin. :) Eğer sadece kicklock kullanacaksan o zaman VanMoof PoM Theft yaptırabilirsin.
Bisiklet çalınırsa 2 hafta içinde bulmaya çalışıyorlar, bulamazlarsa eş degerini gönderiyorlar.
Yalnız aksesuarları kapsamıyor. Bildiğim kadarıyla diğer sigortalar hep ekstra kilit şart koşuyorlar.
Onun dışında bisikletin 3 sene garantisi var. Bişeyler kendiliğinden bozulursa değiştirmek zorundalar, ya da sana gerekli parçaları ve aletleri yolluyorlar.
Eğer elin yatkınsa, fren ayarlarını falan yaparım kendim diyorsan o zaman PoM Maintenance olmasa da olur. 🙌
@@vanmoofer Çok teşekkür ederim bilgiler için.
Açıkçası normalde hiç sigorta falan uğraşmam, diğer iki bisikletim için sigorta yaptırmadım. Ama bu bisiklet için insanın gözü korkuyor. Kaza falan da yapmaktan pek korkmuyorum ama ne olur ne olmaz kaza sigortası yaptırsam mı da diye düşünüyorum.
Elim yatkın aslında bu tip işlere, kendi bisikletlerimi hep kendim tamir ediyorum fakat e-bike falan diyince gözüm korktu.
Sence Eindhoven gibi bir şehir için 3 yıllık PoM Theft mi yoksa 3 yıllık bir e-bike sigortası mı? Pek karar veremedim.
yani ben sadece kendi tercihimi sana önerebilirim :)
ben Eindhoven’da yaşasaydım, o zaman direkt VanMoof’dan PoM satın alırdım 🙌
So is it Electric or what
yes it is electric
Top speed 30+? I tought 25
yes it was 30 kmh since it was running a special version of the app, the production models will get support up to 27 kmh
@@vanmoofer moofer app?
@@gaqr7b they clearly indicated that they don't want any 3rd party apps to interact with the bike, the danger is whether such an approach voids the riders warranty or not
@@vanmoofer ah ok
I really dont like the new halo rings, i prefer the lcd display on the S3.
a simpler matrix display where the phone located would be good to have :)
Last year, I gave them some tips :D they implemented the simplest one.
vanmoofer.medium.com/vanmoof-s4-x4-will-vanmoof-reinvent-the-matrix-display-8ac1eaba3814
100%
yep, they suck. no display is even better than that.
@@MrSoopah next year nobody will remember the matrix display
@@vanmoofer That’s not even the point, I can live without any display on the bike if needed. One of the aspects of the S2 and S3 that everyone mentioned to me positively was that these bikes looked like ‘regular’, well designed bikes, not like ebikes. The unobtrusive nature of the matrix display helped. Unless the rgb halos can be switched off, they make the whole bike look like a toy. And compared to the current display they are a clear step back in terms of UI. Add to that the uninspired frame color, and unfortunately I’ll have to continue to ride my S3 until I can’t get new rear wheels / gear hubs any longer… If the Halos can be disabled in the app, I might change my mind.
Bloed irritant die meiden naast elkaar fietsen. Dat kon in 1990 misschien maar nu echt niet meer!
waarom niet? bedoel je dat ze het fietspad blokkeren?
@@vanmoofer ja! Grootste ergenis voor mij in Amsterdam. Het is gewoon te druk om lekker relaxed naast elkaar te gaan rijden. En dan nog boos worden als je belt om er langs te gaan. Ik heb pas 10 maanden een vanmoof, maar deze ergenis had ik de voorgaande jaren op mijn gewone fiets ook al. Ga gewoon rechts rijden! Zo staat het ook in de wet. Rechts aanhouden. Niet bellen, niet appen, gewoon opletten, voor een goede doorstroming.
@@Seriewoordenaar83 Ik denk dat steden als Amsterdam nieuwe stratenplannen en wegen zoals "snelweg voor fietsen" nodig hebben
the thing is with these bikes if it breaks down your local bike shop probably not going to be able to fix it
Mine once had a problem, I sent it in with UPS to Utrecht, they fixed and returned it within 8 days.
Once I wanted to straighten a front wheel, the local bike shop asked me to come back after three weeks.
They can‘t fix any other e-bike that easy anyway since they don‘t store engines, sensors. They take your bike in and keep it there until the parts arrive and it takes weeks sometimes months.
Riding 30kmph on a footpath with pedestrians / kids is not cool.
You are right and thanks for pointing it out! 🙏 Its no excuse but the bike makes the rider feel like a teenager 🤦🏻♂️ too much excitement.
Bloody women 😅 whether its a bike or a kids buggy…
I could pass them if I wanted to do so, waited because of the garden gate
Love VanMoof, but can you believe the very poor quality of communication Order A5 in April promised delivery June paid for the bike in full, then VanMoof sorry delay of 61 days global supply crisis, will be despatched between 1 - 30 September now 31 August VanMoof sorry global supply chain problem your bike will now be despatched 1 - 30 October.
Very worried that VanMoof have my money and no bike delivered, I hope that my payment is safe and that these problems will not cause cash flow problem for VanMoof, is there a risk they could cease trading as they have no products to deliver, very concerned.
If you are thinking of purchasing one of the new range from VanMoof be very cautious.🇳🇱
its sad and the communication could be a bit clearer indeed, however its not just vanmoof, nowadays everything has looong delivery times, for a refrigerator you may have to wait 6+ months
hello, did you get your bike in time? I ordered mine in amsterdam in April, this year, hey now say the delivery will ne march 2023
No I have still not received the bike told a further factory delay so now the delivery was going to be late November/ December so we have cancelled our order and switched to Cowboy from Belgium offer a very similar style of bike
