Hi,
I know it might sound silly to ask a question about the unknown future but I’d like to ask your opinions on the possibility of upgrading a motor. Nowadays the e-bikes are being designed with the motor (especially for the mid drive units) and the battery in mind, which have specific form-factors and emplacements. So, what will happen when a new motor is designed? Will it be possible to replace the old motor with a new one? If I am not mistaken, it should be possible to interchange an E7000 with E8000. What about replacing a Shimano with a Bosch or Brose or vice-versa. Or are we being locked in a specific eco system?
Thanks
