Yamaha has updated its electric bicycle line with the unveiling of its refreshed Wabash RT and CrossCore RC. The two models come with Yamaha’s newly minted PWSeries ST mid-drive motor. The two models are capable of a top speed of 28mph and the two bikes are both built on sturdy frames. While the Wabash RT is suitable for off-road riding, the CrossCore RC is a conventional road running electric bike.
Yamaha Power and Assist Bicycles is the
arm focused on the production of the Yamaha electric bikes and it says both
models reflect the finer ideals of the company in producing functional and
efficient models. The company says there is a growing need for electric
bicycles as fitness and mobility tools, and the two e-bikes will be useful in
several scenarios.
The PWSeries ST motor has a capacity of
500W and provides four levels of pedal assist to reach the top speed of 28 mph.
Four sensors namely for the torque, crank cadence, wheel speed, and bike angle,
combine to continuously calculate and apply the precise amount of power while
riding. Both bikes reflect massive improvements from the original 2019 Wabash
RT and CrossCore RT models. They also come with individual innovations and
features that put them in good stead in their respective rid segments.Yamaha
