CYPRESS, Calif. (BRAIN) — Two new e-MTB models have been added to Yamaha Bicycles' full-suspension lineup. The YDX-MORO 07 and YDX-MORO 05 are spec'd with Yamaha's PW-X3 mid-drive unit, Dual Twin frame, and Quad Sensor system.
The PW-X3 has a max torque to 85Nm, with 250W nominal assist, 500W maximum assist, and power assist up to 20 mph. Assist levels include ECO, Standard, High, MTB, Extra-Power, Automatic-Mode, and Walk Assist. Yamaha's Automatic Support Mode feature selects the assist based on riding conditions, whether accelerating, braking, or climbing, allowing riders to leave ride mode changes to the system and focus on the trail.
The new models have the Yamaha Interface X control unit to take in information and manage settings. Features include a simple assist control switch; a minimalist three-color LED support-mode level light indicator; Bluetooth connectivity to Garmin Edge 530, 830, and 1030 GPS computers; LED brightness adjustability; and battery capacity indicator.
