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?
@@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.

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.
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
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.
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
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 :-)
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.
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.
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
This is on the top of my list for next year. Thanks!!!
Very nice. Thanks for the note.
Same here.

Bruh, he’s peddling and talking at the same time. He’s just tying to catch his breath.
Review a deluxe four-slice toaster next, also, study how humans converse, you'll get the cadence in no time. WTF happened to Motorcyclist Magazine?
Diversity man
It's not a bad thing
I myself draw the line at Blenders. 🤨
Its got a motor in it 🤷♂️
@@joeblow5037 LOL! Nice one, man. Hey man, I can test the heck out of a blender, ha ha ha.
@@AdamWaheed Hey mate, how much battery life was left after that ride? And have you got to test out the Sur Ron Storm Bee or Stark Varg yet?
@@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.
A nice bike to ride off all those beers and food from the press launch hospitality😂😂
Ha ha ha. Nice one man! I love the jokes.
Yes, the weed man. Talks SO slow that you'd think he's been smoking that killer northern cali indica😆😅🤣😂
SERIOUSLY, that is the first thing I thought
why are you talking to me like i'm 7?
Am I not in the demographic for this channel? Perhaps I should leave. :(

Definitely my Dream Bicycle! Nice Review Adam!

100miles on 500watt battery bullshit
I have a white RC and it's extremely impressive. Go get one!
Hey, what about the range ? Thanks !
1 hp and 59 lbs of torque
100% Adam!
Thanks for stopping at the stop signs that the ditto heads blew through 😎
Yeah man! We always abide by the rule of U.S. law when operating our vehicles.
I have a Yamaha Civante. It am

Ha ha ha, nice one. Well, of course you can!
@@AdamWaheed Sold!

Been a subscriber for years, but no more. Non moto content combined with "challenging" narration put me ver the top. (I like adams writing)
Technically e and gas bikes are motorcycle content because it’s the original motorcycles just up to date
Where is this trail at?
This trail network is in northern San Diego County inside the Golden State.
Does it come with a crappy seat like every other Yamaha? 😂😂
More ebikes?? Come on guys..
Boring af
i ride motorcycles for my whole life and i also like ebikes and bikes overall. so pls don't speak for everybody.
@@MyMMC Lately I’ve been watching videos of people touring on ebikes using solar panels, it’s very interesting.
@@MyMMC Yep, same. We ride anything with an engine or motor. Been that way for many decades now.
@@MyMMC when did he speak for you?
I subscribed to see motorcycles, start a new channel...simple fix 👌
Wow disc brakes. Most bang for the buck. Who does compare Ducati and Harley bikes
Oh my good TALK man is this captain Kirk? 2x is a must!
Does yamaha make any e bike with a throttle?
The main man 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you for the comprehensive review. We'd welcome questions from your community!

Hi Aaron, yeah, it's a pretty heavy pedal-assist bicycle. You'll get strong lifting it in and out of your truck or van, lol.
Don't Levos go for twice as much money for the cheapest version and even have a $15K option?
@@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.

Dig it
Not for 3k and up..I can buy a top of the line mountain bike and put an electric motor on it for a heck of a lot less
no you cannot

Top of the line Mtb cost 15k plus lol
Why are you doing bicycles. I'm out
Ebikes are the bridge between ebikes and emotorcycles. Hire an ebike reviewer. Please review the Serial 1 ebikes!
Hi Duke, nice man. I think it would be easier to get a new audience member instead, LOL. How's that?
