It's in the Giant subforum. Somebody speculated the chinese competition and the taste of the american people for their flavor.Wow. Why would anyone be ashamed to own one of those?
Looks like a really nice bike, Marcela. Giant is a winner, as I watch @RabH continue to put amazing mileage on his road bike.
Do you know why Yamaha is stopping shipment? Your post was the first I’d read about that.
Far as I know it's only their range of Yamaha ebikes, not the motors on other brands like Giant and Haibike. They recently brought out a new version of the PW range, the PW X4 I think. Been well reviewed. As to why they stopped importing their own bikes to US, not sure except that outside of Japan they are mostly sold through Yamaha Motorbike dealers not bike shops and don't seem to put a lot of marketing muscle behind them. Not sure why. Here in UK impossible to find one outside a tiny number of Yamaha motorbike dealers.Wow. Why would anyone be ashamed to own one of those?

I mean I can see the cost savings, they already have dealerships everywhere, but how on Earth are people supposed to know they sell e-bikes in there? The Yamaha fan might know, but not the casual buyer who'd never think of walking into a motorbike shop. I tried it in a local Yamaha shop. They looked at me as if I'd 2 heads! Had heard nothing about e-bikes. Online there are a few who sold e-bikes but situated near London.
Oh, sorry, I’m confused. Is the Giant Stormguard a Yamaha bike rebranded, Marcela?
No you are not confused, I am. I was looking for yamaha motor info and came up on this thread and transposed it to the giant ebike. Anyway, I am sure someone will come along and straighten out the whole thing
