Wow, you have good eyes ! I would never have find it alone. Old eyes inside ;)
Someone else (E-Ride on ebike-mag forum, credits to him / her for this) found too. He linked the following image. And effectively, after zooming on the motor, some can read 'by yamaha'. E-bike forums are full of nice...

dumdum-di-doooommm ... Nice looking bikes, indeed.
Especially the +1.
But Yamaha or not Yamaha, for the syndrive pro² ?
It's not indicated on the technical data sheet.
And the old link (technologies > syncdrive pro) points to an old page...
Hello,
With Eurobico 2021 happening this week end, i wonder if we (the loyal idiots moneybags customers) have any chance to be informed too ?
Or will it be 'B2B' and press reserved, with NDA etc ?
eurobico 2021
Anyway, i hope that some of us will be lucky enough to explore this event, and...
My LBs, here in France, told me that Reign E+ may be availables very soon, to compensate for lack of updates of the model since 3 years. I hope he is true.
I've read and heard that the pw-x3 will be mounted on many new 2022 models, from many brands. Just wonder which, with little to no clue about performances, size and weigth evolutions.
I also hope for a full yamaha EMTB distributed in Europe, for 2022.
I hope that for 2022 and paired with pw-x3 new Yam motor, we'll have some yamaha full EMTB, distributed in Europe, not only in USA like the Moro ... Anyone got some news / hints about such a thing ?
Hello,
I already saw it on other 'locked' forums ... Nice pic. Even if it's impossible to watch the 'full motor body'. I wonder if it is the pw-x3 inside, or a boosted version of the old syncdrive pro ?
Bases seems shorter than before, or it is an illusion because of the longer frame ?
Hello Mr Teno2U,
I may reply 'out of topic', maybe, maybe not.
But in case it can help, i try.
I own a reign E+ from 2020.
After a few rides (no crash, schock or anything), it started to have power issues (anomaly code 1 and 4).
I had to shut down the bike and restart. Sometimes it solved the...
hello,
Nice test !
I just wonder how original yamaha motor and its giant version (build with specific parts designed by giant, tuned etc.) compare with each other. I suspect that a lot of differences could be hilighted (or at least more than expected). Just an idea, maybe for a future test ...
Nice link, TYVM.
Here is another one :
What do you think it is ? Trance E+ or Reign E+ 2021 ? Full 29' wheels or mullet ? Strange bi-colour scheme too ...
Hello MattyB,
Yes, i know there's around 99,99% for you to be right.
But when i watch at the actual state of technology embedded on Emtb, and what the technology allows (at a reasonnable cost), i feel fooled.
So even if i know you perfectly described the reality, i'll stick on the 0,01% for a...
Hello,
I'm 1,70 tall (converter says 5,57 foot).
On my 29" HT, i feel like a toad driving a chopper despite frame being short.
After (re)discovering 27,5 , i know my next bike will be a 27er with a shorter frame.
So the best thing to do, in my opinion, is to test each combination of wheel size...
Hello,
I'm here to ask a stupid / noob / paranormal question.
What are the maximum and minimal chainring size , that can be mounted on E-mtb ?
And of course, what are the limits on each motor (mainly shimano / bosch / brose / yamaha).
I ask this because on my regular MTB, on steep climbs, i'm...
Same here : i wait for more option, especially fully-suspended mtb.
I also think that the technology isn't mature yet. I wait for a generation 2 Evation (hardware, not software).
And yes : having the choice from 150Wh to 350Wh battery would be more than cool, and a real innovation.
But with...
You are perfectly right ! The ability to play with battery size is essential, for such an assistance tool. About torque, yes, i think too 60 Nm is ok, even if a bit more wont hurt. Maybe in the future they'll offer the choice to mix battery size and motors ? It would be damn nice !
I'm very curious to see, in the future, if :
- Fazua Evation will survive in the Emtb motor ecosystem
- If Fazua will fast improve the system (especially the battery, for at least 350Wh)
- Do they have plans for an Evation 2 (more power and / or more battery), with the same volume / size ? In...
@ThierryGTLTS
I wish Rob had the opportunity to test again in depth the Lapierre, after 2.0 blackPP update ... and report with the same luxury of details than for previous test ! (of course, Nox H. fast look after blackPP update was a nice start, but i'm really curious to read in-depth analysis...
Hello Flash,
(or Gordon ? Or Flash Gordon?)
Thank you for such an input. I'm still hesitating about the Ezesty. So it's nice to read all those nice infos about it.
If you allow me, i would have some questions :
- How do climb your Ezesty, alone and / or compared to your full powered Emtb (wich...
