First Ride: SRAM's New Powertrain Motor
You're screwed. EP8 is the easiest full power motor to pedal with it off :(

Not only that, but the company with the worst motor track record is making the motor...

First Ride: SRAM's New Powertrain Motor
@twonsarelli: ebike only for the last year or so. Haven't run into any dropper insertion limitations across a 2019 Levo (Brose), 2021 Mondraker Crafty Carbon RR (Bosch), 2021 and 2023 Orbea Rise (Shimano), 2023 Pivot Shuttle SL (Fazua). All size large, but I'm only 6' so I ran the posts all the way inserted +/- 10mm, except the Shuttle which has the lowest collar of them all.

@twonsarelli: Sorry, the first post was yours :facepalm: So you changed the subject, of course my answer no longer makes sense :)

@twonsarelli: You missed the context, re-read the first post. E.g. the Santa Cruz Nomad has a bent seat tube with a shock going through it. You can find examples of e-bikes and non-e-bikes that will restrict dropper length. It's not a problem endemic to e-bikes.

No auto "coast shift"? That's the most useful feature on the new Di2 IMO.

There's no motor intrusion into the seat tube, most motors are mounted horizontally or at an angle away from the seat tube. The more likely intrusion is from buttons and charge ports (depending on the bike of course. Anyway it's a bit of a silly question given all the non-ebike frames that have non-straight seat tubes. You can run into that issue on any bike, e- or not.
