Verdict: A decent attempt from Yamaha at applying their drive system to an e-gravel option, but has a few too many niggles

Jan 2024 · John S. Bozick
This powerful, well-crafted e-bike makes gravel riding accessible and fun! With a name that means “water flowing over white rocks,” it would only be right that the Wabash RT would be Yamaha’s fluid, responsive gravel e-bike. We were impressed after reviewing the brand’s CrossCore RC city/commuter e-bike, so we had high expectations from this offering.
An analog cycling experience at all power levels thanks to the remarkably natural-feeling 250W PW Series ST mid-drive motor with torque, speed, cadence, and slope sensors.
Covers tons of miles or time between charges with an efficient motor and 36V, 500 Wh battery.
Great steering control and stability from the wide 44cm flared drop bars.
The bike felt planted yet agile, with its grippy 700c x 45 mm tires and 48-lb total weight.
An easy, seamless Auto Assist setting responds intuitively to give more power when pedaling harder.
Responsive shifting, a flexible gearing range, and solid stopping power from the Shimano GRX groupset.
Easily keeps up with traffic due to its Class 3 speeds of up to 28 mph.
Ride with less concern for flats after converting the tubeless-ready rims and Maxxis Rambler tires.
Trust your purchase with a 3-year warranty that covers the motor, battery, and frame.
We liked the included dropper/suspension seatpost but found its lever position on the handlebar awkward to use. We’d prefer Shimano’s combination brake and dropper post lever.
It may seem nitpicky, but we hope to see improved cable management in the future to prevent paint wear on the head tube.
