yup after 3450 miles of hard riding this year so far, my e8000 has been perfect in all weather and trail conditions. I’ll give ep8 another year...
heck I may even go e7000 if I buy the new Kona remote 130 when available.
Yeah I’m liking the new remote 130 with e7000 504wh and full deore 12 speed for a grand less. Easy to carry a second 504 and swap it out during ride. 630 will get you more for sure but an extra 504 brings you into epic ride territory.
I’ve put 3400 hard dirty miles on my BMC speedfox AMP with shimano E8000 since I got the bike new this past December. Everything is still bone stock cept for typical wear items. I’m already shopping for a 2021 then my BMC can be a backup bike. May buy a 2021 speedfox AMP as I couldn’t be happier...
Another 150 miles on mine this week, up to 3300 trouble free miles. 60 of those miles since yesterday in monsoon rains then wet wet wet mud today......
I wanted to buy a Levo I really did as I demoed a comp carbon for a week, but I thought it was silly to buy a bike where it’s be more than likely that I’d be without it for motor replacements regularly. Love the shimano motor and battery tho so absolutely no regrets there.
3110 miles on my bmc speedfox amp with e8000 since December 19’ when I bought it. Trouble free. I ride the bike very hard and never clean it. Just lube the chain and go. Love the bike so much!
