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.

and guess what, now there's a shipping charge of $99 on all these bikes!
I will have to eat up that additional $100 + $40 price increase for Moro 07 special edition. I placed another order, but already doesn't look good for the seller
Here is sizing chart I used for the Moro 07
DM me if interested.

You realize this is an E-bike with which means it has the weight of a battery and motor right?

1. The power is fine and plenty good. Could there be a bigger and stronger motor? Yes, there always could be. But the vast majority of people don't need it or will know the difference. This always reminds me of the power tool talk, where people will argue about how the new Milwaukee is better because it has 5,000lbft of nut busting torque only to ever use it on their lug nuts or suspension which is torqued to 80lbft.
2. Groupsets really don't matter that much and most people won't know the difference or care. The enlightenment curve is applicable here: newbies and very experienced people don't care about groupsets too much, but then the middle of the pack will always argue about groupsets. Groupsets are incremental, and the cost to go up a tier in a set is huge. They mattered a lot more in the past, but these days they matter a lot less.
This is a fire deal. I would be extremely surprised to if you found a deal even remotely close to this for another brand. I think this is only happening because Yamaha isn't an e-bike brand in the US and this is a signal for a change in strategy for them. You won't find a selection or sales price like this for a bicycle brand barring some huge event (eg if Canyon just decided to stop existing, for example)
