Why would you use pinion and hub motor over bosch / shimano mid drive motor and Rohloff? Cheaper?
Two reasons in my experience:
1 - The rear-facing Bullitt dropouts for Rohloff fucking suck at keeping the hub in place.
2 - Mechanical Rohloff shifting feels like absolute garbage with a high-torque middrive motor and as of this posting E14 isn't compatible with STEPS
