The only way I can bear listening to this is by speeding it up 1.25 to 1.5 x. What's up with the pausing between every word as though you're speaking to children?
The fact it comes with a stand and front light is brilliant. Giant roam ebike is more expensive and they are extra. Definitely a very good bike from YAMAHA
I have a Yamaha Civante. It am Very disappointed. Yamaha’s warranty support is terrible when something breaks. They hardly have any Authorized retail bike shops that will work on them. And the retailers I took it to all said that they don’t want to work with Yamaha anymore. I am going to buy a trek next time so I can get more dealer support. I am trying to sell my Yamaha e-bike but it has lost so much value and they are hard to sell
@@redlinerichard77 Hey man, I can't recall. I have not ridden either of those bikes yet. We've been speaking with the Surron folks so we will see what happens... Thanks for the note.
Thanks for letting us try out your fresh pedal-assist bicycles. We value the opportunity to evaluate new products and share them with our proven-purchasing audience.
Dear journalism. Please learn the difference between watt, and watthour. Though this mistake is easily spotted, the credibility of the review suffers. Fuel tanks aren't measured in horsepower either.
Front brake on the left ??? No cycle I ever had put the front brake on the left. Nice informative review but needs doing in the rain in rush hour on a dark winters morning :-)

52 lbs? Yikes! My Specialized Levo (full suspension trail bike) is only a pound or two more. I would have figured it would be 42 lbs. That extra 10 lbs isn't a big deal just riding around, but when you have to hoist it up steps or onto a bike rack you notice it. Also, many bike racks, tray style in particular have a 50 lb limit. I had to upgrade my rack to carry my Levo around. Something to think about with e-bikes in general.
@@riggidybang That sounds about right. I think they start at $6-6.5k. Mine is the notch above that model that runs $7500, but I caught mine on sale for $5600. Was able to take advantage of 0% interest for 36 months, so that took the sting out of such an expensive purchase.
@@aaronbehindbars Nice man. The price of Specialized e-mountain bikes is lowering quickly due to excess supply. I have a '19 Kenevo Expert but want to ditch it and get something better.
@@AdamWaheed Specialized ran a sale a few weeks back on a few of their e-bikes exactly for that reason. They called it the "We Made Too Many Sale." One could argue it's really a "The Economy is Slowing Down, So Let's Dump Some Of Our Expensive Merchandise Sale." Looks like they're back to regular prices again, but I've seen various other e-bikes on sale for significant discounts which isn't something anybody would have expected a 18 months ago when supply was so short. I love my Levo, but there are plenty of other great e-MTB options out there. I juat happened to catch a local demo right as they had their sale going. That and the fact that I already own a Specialized Stumpjumper and like the fit and frame geo, it was an easy choice to stick with the Big S.
@@fengrr 100% correct! This is where the bicycling industry is progressing in order to capture a market that wants and needs a pedal-assisted mode of activity or viable transport. Whether commuting, coming back from an injury or a long lay off from fitness activity. It’s getting more people off the couch and living better through fitness.
I don’t know why you talk like that man. It like at the end of the sentence you slow down and stress the last word or something like it’s so important. I don’t know where you learned that style, but you should unlearn it pretty quick. Talk normal. Nobody talks like that.
You could be in the Bike Lane @5:20, but everyone is a d-bag and taking up the whole lane and not one rider is in the lane specifically painted for bicycles. Typical North County entitlement. /s
