Vanmoof S5: Range with USA setting?

Hi everyone, I have a question regarding the Vanmoof S5 bike. I'd like to know approximately how far you can ride it when using it with the US setting. I know it's illegal, but I just want to know for my own information, as I ordered the bike and want to use it as a delivery service. Could you please tell me if you can ride the Vanmoof S5 for approximately 40 or 50 km?

Higher speed → higher battery consumption

Consequently, you have a lower range with the US setting.

In the normal "Speed ​​Mode" there are about 40 km inside.

And even if you know that it's illegal to manipulate the wheel, I still want to suggest that you let it be.

If you're caught with it, you'll have the following:

• Driving without a license

• Driving without driving license if you don't own

• Driving without insurance (this is already a crime)

All together will then go to the four-digit area you can sheet.

In addition, VanMoof can refuse the warranty if you play it around.

Means you'll be sitting on possible repair costs.

By the way, a driving ban for the bike can also be given to you for such 3 months, which means that your job as a bicycle courier has certainly been done.

as a professional courier, it should be difficult. Apparently, manipulations with US versions are far too easy

Then I would strongly recommend a business liability & rather put on an S-Pedelec with license plate

To this end, a commercial machine casco of Allianz with fully comprehensive insurance. Battery insurance. License plate. This is likely to cost about 7% of the purchase value

Incl. sub-cass and also with sub-cass via the license plate
