If the cost of a Garmin is an option I think it looks better, is more customizable and gives you more data options than the Shimano unit. It mounts in the center using the mount that came with the bike as opposed to off to the right of the stem. Also the connect app will track MTB stats like...
Make sure you tape or ride wrap the places that the mudguard touches the frame, especially where the outside of the guard rubs the inside of the rear triangle frame. I had a similar setup on my Giant Trance using two mugguard longs zip tied together. When I took them off after a season of...

So if the EP8 RS is just a firmware restricted EP8 doesn’t that mean you could use the app on the full fat EP8 to tune it down to the RS settings for the same range/feel or is there something different about the RS that gives the natural feel? Seems to me that having the option to crank it up...
