I have experience servicing these Yamahas and they are excellent bikes with a few minor issues. First and foremost, they run Yamaha motors, which means you're going to need a Yamaha dealer if something goes awry there. I have not yet run into any motor issues in my experience with these, but note that Yamaha dealers are few and far between in some areas.
Another issue is that geometry on these is a little funky. The road and hybrid bikes are built off the same frame that is sized small, medium, and large, but really fits more like medium, medium-large, and real big. Measure out your current ride and verify that it'll fit you before you hit 'order.' I haven't had luck getting people much smaller than 5' 4" on the small size.
The final issue is that they run their own proprietary rear derailleur hanger on many of the frames, which makes a basic repair (rear der hanger replacement) a bit frustrating, as you have to track down the right part from, again, a Yamaha dealer. If you grab one of these bikes, order a couple of spare hangers at the same time, if possible, and make your future repair needs that much easier.
Otherwise, like I said above, bonkers deals.
Regarding the drop bar vs flat bar for the road bikes, looking at the geometry tables, I notice the stack height is pretty low, at least in the largest size. That would make using the drops rather uncomfortable for me. Also, the longer width of the flat bar will provide more stability compared to narrow drop bars, which is something to really consider for a bike that can sustain 28 mph. Just something to think about.

Just bought the YDX Moro 7 at 508ebikes. It went through.
Realizing I just spent $4k for two monster ebikes. Wallet hurts but far less than some other options.

Don't hear ppl that speak out of turn and not knowing: this is a CLASS 1 bike, i.e. exclusively pedal assist, with no throttle and cutoff @ 20mph.
To be class 1, by law, it cannot put out more than 250W sustained...
If you want a bike that helps you in the ups to enjoy more of the downs, or just an assisted bike to get you off the couch without 100% of the pain, this might be a great deal for you.
Sure, if you want a surron or other hackable throttle electric motorcycles or easy-mode commuters, this is not for you. If you dream of 1000W + or even 500W sustained, you are looking into an electric motorcycle and if it was up to me talking to my local representative, I would not allow you to ride one of those on any bike trails and even on the road without license and insurance. And if you've just bought one of those for your teenager, you are an idiot and I hope your teenager is not an ashole like some I know around the trails I am riding. And if I was to be involved or witness an accident with a vehicle like this (the emotos, not the OP bike), being ridden by an unlicensed person, on an unsanctioned or outright barring it trail system, I would press charges towards not just the rider, but the parent who paid for it, hoping I will help set a precedent and have traffic police starting enforcing the rules that exist on these emotos.
Don't get me wrong: emotos are great fun. Ride them on a dirt bike track or jeep trail, as everyone that cares does. Not on the road, not on biking/hiking trails.
I am not a "stupid Karen" or w/e your small head might call it. We are really close to losing access to more and more bike trails because emoto asses are pissing off hikers and equestrians.
Better to buy more expensive bike from this deal because it has better components. If you want to upgrade later, it will cost much more since the discount is huge. for example, crosscore RC has MT200 brake which is entry level brakes and the bike weight is over 50lbs. It will not hurt to have better brakes.

Edit: People seriously cant read. My words won't change here no matter how many thumbs down. That motor is weak ass - especially for $2k. Bike is a good bike. No one is arguing that. It's Yamaha. It's good - yadayada.
The point is that a mid drive 36v 250w won't compete with any 56v 1000w or higher hub drive. The torque may be decent, but 20mph top speed? You want at least 30-40, and I expect 50 for $2000 with bafang 1000w mid drive or 1000w dual hub motor. Those are demon electric vehicles or motorcycles, and this is a weak ass dedicated high-end MTB that targets the 0.01% market of the population. You will regret buying this rather than a fast machine if you belong to the majority ebike consumers. This is for riding on a trail and give yourself a small break kind of professional MTB usage.
Don't ever think Yamaha electric motors are any good. If you know anything about electric motor, Chinese is the best, on not only quality but also longitivity and so on. I trust China's electric motors more than Japanese gas engines-so you know how reliable they are. Every single electric motor you bought will last 100x longer than any gas or diesel engine you ever had. They are totally different so don't use your experience on Yamaha gas motors to claim why Japanese electric motors are good. They are decent but that's it. A Yamaha electric motor is no better than any no name Chinese electric motor. I won't consider Yamaha is superior than any named Chinese motor, like Bafang, and in fact Yamaha is not even as good as Bafang if you know ebikes.
Update: The bike has been at this price for almost a month. Their dealers have actively advertised these, but there are still a lot of stock. In Texas they have almost 200 in one dealer. It is a good deal - but not that kind of "should buy one even if dont need it" deal. If you are in the market for a MTB, look into this. If you are not in the market for MTB, like you need an ebike or dont need a bike at all, don't recommend it.
