Euybike S4 Review: Not your typical Moped Style e-bike

The Euybike S4 has an impressive top speed, as I reached over 28 mph through pedal assist. When it came to range, I was able to cover 75 miles with pedal assist. The acceleration from 0 to the top speed of 20 mph took 9.4 seconds when relying solely on the throttle. 

With a 20-degree uphill climb, the half-twist throttle alone gives a nice performance. With a nominal motor power of 1000W and a peak power of 1200W, the Euybike S4 is not your normal e-bike when it comes to power. The motor torque of 96Nm ensured a smooth and powerful ride throughout my riding experience.

The Euybike S4 impressed me with its top speed as I was able to reach a maximum speed of 28 mph with pedal assist.

The acceleration of the Euybike S4 felt really smooth. It didn’t have the strong resistance you sometimes get with more powerful bikes, but it still took off pretty well. The 96Nm torque is also quite good for the price point. 

The Euybike S4 handled the inclines pretty well in general. It smoothly took me up the hills, even when I started from a standstill. Whether I used the throttle or pedal assist, the bike provided a pleasant ride while tackling inclines. 

The Euybike S4 is really impressive with its massive battery capacity of 48V 25Ah! The battery brand used is Pansonic, kinda reliable for me.

I achieved a range of 75 miles with pedal assist. In terms of separate testing for range on throttle and pedal assist, the bike performed well. When relying solely on the throttle, I was able to cover up to 40 miles.

The Euybike S4 provided a consistently smooth ride throughout. When riding on asphalt, it was particularly enjoyable and even off-road, the full suspension ensured a comfortable experience. I had no issues whatsoever, as the responsive suspensions handled bumps effectively, and the front suspension could be adjusted to my liking.

The steering of the Euybike S4 was nimble and agile, allowing me to navigate with ease. The power delivery was responsive, with the throttle efficiently getting the job done. Cornering was good thanks to the impressive 20×4″ Kenda tires that provided good traction.

In terms of weight distribution and ride stability, this moped-style bike is really great. It is larger than typical bikes of its kind, capable of handling weights up to 400 lbs. Also, I really love the saddle of the Euybike S4. It comes with a seat extension, providing a generous 14″ length for added comfort.

The Euybike S4 is equipped with hydraulic disc brakes, which are really good. The brakes are branded Logan, and get the job done. The diameter of the brake rotors measures 160mm, although I personally wish they were 180mm as the standard size.

The Euybike S4 features a full suspension setup, including an alloy front suspension and mid-shock suspension. The front suspension fork is not only adjustable but also lockable, thanks to its dual crown design. I had the opportunity to ride the bike off-road and even tried it on the sand, and the suspension performed well, providing a really nice experience.

While the Euybike S4 does not have a seat post suspension, the saddle itself is super long and incredibly comfortable. It features a soft PU shock absorber seat, ensuring an enjoyable ride.

In terms of wiring, the bike features a clean-looking external wiring, which gives it a neat and organized look.

The Euybike S4 comes with a removable battery pack, which is a convenient feature. It is also lockable, ensuring the safety of the battery.

When it comes to charging, the battery requires approximately 9-10 hours to fully charge since the charger only provides 2Ah.

Overall, I found the battery to be highly dependable, providing the necessary power for long rides without any concerns.
