yes but dont make me jealous
went to SBC yest to fit CK headset on my bullitt (because why not?) test rode XT Di2 6100 bullitt, was good, could tell diff between bafang and STEPS. Bafang has higher torque but less 'direct' feel (can be solved by tweaking some timings with USB cable I think.
also saw the la vita in the window, wtf

Seen/done a few +Bafang and Tongsheng conversions recently, both work absolutely fine. Defo not the same user experience as a proper mid drive, but actually for heavy loaded cargos, you just want torque, lots and lots of torque. Ability to change gear under power without backing off is a bonus (TBH only external gear systems really can do this without going bang) but not essential.
Difference in feel/experience between Bosch + Shimano in their most up to date models (gen4/e6100/ep8) are very small. choose one with the most torque if your a heavy user, you'll be happy with a performance line/E6100 if for family use. Older Gen 2/Gen 3 Bosch or Shimano E6000 yeah was some differences.The supplied with/stock map on the Tongsheng is hopeless. Don't bother reading anyones reviews of it unless they bothered to flash another one onto it or at least made some rudimentary tweaks to it.
