    Yamaha Y-01W AWD & Y-00Z MTB

    Can't find any supporting data to support your claim and ask me to look them up; which proves my point; you're just full of BS. What manufacture designate their gravel ebikes to do doesn't represent the majority of of gravel ebike owners, let alone UCI sanctioned gravel bike racing. My...

    Yamaha Y-01W AWD & Y-00Z MTB

    Still doesn't mean that majority of gravel bike owner serve the same purpose as you. Just as most SUV or Jeep owner don't take theirs for off-road driving. Unless you have actual data to support you claim, you're only stating your own sample pool and only stating the anecdotal data.

    https://electrek.co/2023/10/20/why-yamahas-wild-new-electric-bike-has-two-wheel-drive/ I remember Yamaha had a 2WD dirtbike back in the days when they were still interested in the Dakar race. It was too heavy to be competitive in competition, but IRL I'd imagine 2wd would be great for trail...
