They started posting ads all over my city recently
Are they the Apple of bikes? (looks nice, functions tolerably, is overpriced)
Are their EU models cucked as per law?

They're an inadvertent status symbol because they're clearly a little more expensive than the cheapest alternative, but their features pretty much justify the price. They appeal to euroboos who get a stiffie at the implication that someone might ask them about aaaamsterdaaaaaam, and much like walking a very large dog, they quietly signal to onlookers that you can afford a big enough place where keeping a full size utility bike inside is no biggie. No one with a vanmoof has ever told me what they paid for it, but of course I know.

Contrast that with br*mpton owners who can't STFU about the number of dollars they spent, while accidentally broadcasting the fact that they can't even afford a place big enough to store a non-crippled bike and they take out their insecurities on people in the elevator by spouting off on how much of an agonizing life decision it was to purchase a bike that wasn't a walmart BSO.

In short they're /n/ approved.

The bike needs a fucking app to function properly and use the lock.

Looks practically unserviceable without a qualified mechanic taking apart far too many components for even the slightest adjustment.

I think the other poster was saying that it looks "too integrated". The kind of thing where the manufacturer has designed it to only work with their parts.

My LBS sells them they tried to get me to buy one as they know Im bike crazy and they make a legit xxl one. Part of the bike is that it has a lifelime LBS warranty. This also seems to be aimed at non-cyclists or people who would have otherwise bought a vespa. It's nice but really overbuilt.

If I commuted on an ebike I'd probably use one that had 20" wide tires, like a Rad bike

Never ridden one but I see them zooming around on the way to the beach near my place. From my experience, it looks like tourists are renting them and using them to get around almost like people used segways back in the day but I could be mistaken.

Idk about looks. I think they look pretty fucking gay. They look like the bike the guy on the male bathroom sign would ride. Very NPC-core for an e-bike.

Says who?

Every shop mechanic that I know who has experience with Vanmoof fucking hates them. They're shit bikes and their dealer support fucking sucks. If you get one, you better pray you never have any problems with it because it's going to be a massive headache.

That's pretty lame. I mean I still think you should be banned, but mostly just because you're a useless trip with shitty takes on everything.

I'm a proud globalist but that bike is just 'not for me'. The target group are some nerds who like practical things like integrated features and are not into fashion.

The true globalist has an acquired taste and would not let themselves be seen on something like vm.

/n/ wouldn't get it because they're obsessed with maximizing numbers for input vs output, price, etc., but it's what the adults in the room ride.
