Yamaha Moro 07 30th Anniversary

You may be surprised to discover that Yamaha developed the world’s first production eBike 30 years ago. In fact, Yamaha has been building eBikes for the Japanese market for the last three decades – as well as supplying the eKits that drive many of the eBikes sold in Europe. And the new MORO 07 is the start of an exciting new electric future for the company.

CELEBRATING 30 YEARS OF EBIKE INNOVATION
Developed using Yamaha’s class-leading racing technology, the unique dual twin frame features twin top and down tubes for finely balanced rigidity that gives confident handling with plenty of surface feedback. With premium components including full RockShox suspension, Magura MT5 brakes and Maxxis tyres, the MORO 07 is built for fun without limits.

Featuring a best-in-class torque-to-weight ratio, Yamaha’s latest PW-X3 drive unit delivers instant assistance as soon as you start to ride thanks to Zero Cadence technology. All the while, pedalling over 25km/h is made easier with the special freewheel system. The minimalist Interface X enables smartphone connectivity for communications, navigation and more.

Dual twin frame
MORO 07 has been developed using advanced chassis technology inspired by Yamaha’s race-winning motorcycles. Featuring twin top tubes and twin down tubes, the unique dual twin frame gives an idealised balance of flex and rigidity for confident handling together with accurate surface feedback.

Best-in-class PW-X3 drive unit
Producing 85Nm of torque, Yamaha’s latest PW-X3 is the company’s lightest, smallest and most powerful drive unit. Its compact dimensions give a narrow Q factor together with excellent ground clearance for superior off-road performance. Zero Cadence technology provides instant assistance and its Automatic Support Mode provides extra power on hills and into headwinds.

RockShox Lyrik Select
MORO 07’s premium specification features RockShox Lyrik Select Charger fork giving 160mm of front wheel travel. Developed to handle everything from challenging single track through to fast downhills, this front end gives this new Yamaha eMTB serious off road capability for fun without limits.

RockShox Super Deluxe Select+ rear shock
The RockShox Super Deluxe Select+ rear shock provides 150mm of plush rear wheel movement for a smooth ride with excellent rear wheel traction. Mounted between the twin top tube, this premium shock contributes towards the MORO 07’s fun character and all-terrain ability.

Magura MT5 brakes
Equipped with a radially mounted master cylinder that provides accurate feel, the Magura MT5 brake features a powerful one-piece four-piston caliper that gives strong braking performance.

500Wh compact integrated battery
The 500Wh compact integrated battery is fully integrated into the dual twin chassis to achieve optimum mass centralisation for agile handling. Developed with 30 years of experience, the Yamaha battery is built to provide hours of consistent rides and a reliable life cycle.

Shimano XT 1x12 drivetrain
Shimano has unrivalled experience in the MTB world, and the MORO 07’s XT 1x12 drivetrain is perfectly matched with the PW-X3 drive unit to give you the ability to perform well in various different situations, confident in the knowledge that the system’s quality and durability is amongst the best in class.
