These are absolutely bonkers deals. If you're at all curious about trying mid-drive ebikes, this is probably the best you're going to do for a while.

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.

Pretty slick deal here. I'm an avid cyclist, mostly mountain biking. Lots of bikes over the years, and I even have an eMTB and a street ebike, both of which I don't ride a whole lot because I enjoy the workout of a normal bike. These Yamaha eMTBs are a little dated. Most people prefer 29" wheels, and 27.5+ started fading away around 2019. My eMTB is actually 27.5+, while all my current regular MTBs are 29", and the 27.5+ is fine, but if I had a choice at the same price, I'd go 29er for sure. The smaller wheelsize might be a benefit though if you're smaller, like under 5'8". The 500wh battery is okay, but most new eMTBs are putting out 630-700wh. Not a big deal unless you plan on riding MTB trails for more than 2.5 hours straight, which most people are not going to do, either because of lack of fitness or lack of free time. The third thing that I don't care for is the lack of a bottle cage, as I prefer to not have to wear a backpack if I can. Not the end of the world, but that kind of sucks. The 4th con is the speed sensor is located in the rear hub, which can make swapping rear wheels an issue. That was a lame engineering decision IMO. My 5th criticism is purely subjective, but these bikes are kind of fugly. The newer bikes look much more conventional and well integrated with the motor and battery. Other than that stuff, these bikes are legit. The Yamaha motor is one of the best, easily on par with Shimano, Brose, and Bosch. The geometry is pretty decent for an ebike, although the chainstays are a little long. Components across the all models are good. Nothing needs upgraded right away. Yamaha warranty length is best in the business, but not sure how actual service is.

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.

Well I did it. The 07 moro special edition in that silver is gorgeous. I've been deep in the emoto world but I'd love to pedal on the local mtb trails. Hope I didn't make a mistake.

Same. I need to give it a day or 3 for the buyers remorse guilt to fade away and hope my wife doesn't ask too many questions lol I mean it's my savings but still. The special edition looks so good and no paint chipping sounds great

I turn 36 this weekend and i used to be a big downhill /freeride guy. Emoto scratches some of that itch but not all. Worst case I sell it locally and take a bit of a hit. I think it's a good buy.

It is just spinning when I select Continue to Payment.
Even worse, if I refresh, it clears my cart.

I get a message "your payment could not be processed. Please update the payment information and try again."

Tried different credit cards, different computers. No luck.

I changed my color to 2 whites and it went through. It seems like Yamaha just assumes the pickup location has all the stock.

Anyway, I got the same message but then got a text from my credit card asking me to approve, then it went through.

I ordered the YDX-MORO 07 SPECIAL EDITION and the total price before clicking the order button it was $2750 but the final price that I was charged came out to $2,852.53 shipped to San Jose, CA. Is this the price everybody's getting who are from California?
Buy off ebikes 508. No sales tax. Thats why I went through the tedious ordeal of canceling my order off the Yamaha website.

Completely disagree. 36v 250w mid drive is extremely under powered and will require substantial effort when cycling up steeper hills on trail.
I might be missing the point, but if you're riding trails aren't you expecting to put in work and get some workout. Or is this for the lazy folks who want to laugh at folks sweating to get up hills on trails?

These are an incredible value with nice warranty, second battery, and killer prices for the bike specs.
Does anybody know if they can fit 29s with 2.4" tires?

Picked up the Moro-07 for $1,674. Been wanting an e-MTB, but has always been too expensive, since I already have a motocross hobby. Did my research online, watched reviews, seems like a great bike and you can't beat the value for the specs. It's a no-brainer on a decent bike if you're looking to get into a full suspension e-MTB. You can't find one with similar specs for twice the price.
Tony how!? $1,674 for a moro-07 is incredbile.

With shipping ebikes ended up being the exact same price (w/in a few dollars) as my local pickup.
Shipping and Tax cancelled each other out so I rather go pick it up at a store.
