Summary of Reviews

We have read all expert and user reviews on the EUNORAU Defender S. In summary, this is what cyclists think.

6 reasons to buy

  • The Defender S is available in two sizes and three colorways.
  • Reviewers relish the “wildly fun” power provided by the two 750W hub motors.
  • The Defender S achieves “impressive” results in throttle-only and PAS acceleration and speed tests.
  • This bike can climb hills at speed, averaging almost 20mph on one 12%, 0.3-mile climbing test.
  • Experts enjoy the “cushy” ride, one calling it the memory foam mattress of bikes.
  • Reviewers enjoy the bike’s performance on non-technical off-road trails thanks to its 4” Kenda Krusade tires and full suspension.

12 reasons not to buy

  • The Defender S is very heavy at 84lb.
  • Experts say the weight and power in the front wheel make it difficult to start turning or change direction once turning.
  • One tester complains that the throttle offers too much power.
  • An expert describes the front and rear suspension as on the springy side.
  • EUNORAU doesn’t provide guidance on setting up the rear suspension, according to one reviewer.
  • Testers and owners struggle to fit the battery cover. EUNORAU responds with video instructions on how to do it, which requires a wrench.
  • In one PAS 5 range test with both motors, a reviewer gets just eight miles of paved riding, the worst performance of all e-bikes they’ve tested.
  • With its 1500W nominal power, the Defender S exceeds e-bike classification and can only be used on private land.
  • The “lower-end” unbranded hydraulic disc brakes return below-average stopping power in testing.
  • The display is hard to read in direct sunlight.
  • One reviewer thinks the cabling is messy.
  • EUNORAU owners report problems with customer support, missing parts, and damage upon delivery.

Bottom line

The EUNORAU Defender S is a full-suspension, fat-tire e-bike with two hub motors and capacity for two batteries. Experts laud the impressive performance on hills, rocket-like acceleration, and “cushy” ride. They also appreciate the capability off-road. However, the bike is very heavy. Experts find it difficult to maneuver due to its total weight and the extra weight and power in the front wheel. Additionally, range is laughably low when using both motors, braking performance is poor, and it’s illegal to use on public roads. Overall, the EUNORAU Defender S earns relatively low marks from reviewers who find it “expensive” and unsuitable for inexperienced riders.
