So I have my first ebike on the way, a YT Decoy. I have been watching some YouTube videos and I saw that it was relatively easy to add Di2 to an ebike (the clip had the Shimano motor too which was very much plug and play).
I have Di2 on my road bikes and love it, but I’ve always thought it wasn’t really needed on a mountain bike.
I then looked around and I have found an XT Di2 shifter and derailleur that have been used 4 times for sale for about €200.
It would be more of a “just because” purchase since it seems like a good deal and the battery and other bits and pieces normally required aren’t needed with an ebike, but what are people’s opinions on Di2 on mountain bikes? Awesome and makes a big difference or overkill and not worth it?
