I thought long and hard about going with that type of setup as it has a lot of advantages, and seems to be the perfect match for a mid drive, but I ultimately ended up going with a DD hub motor as I was willing to sacrifice some speed, and efficiency for its simplicity, and reliability due to the terrain, and climate challenges of my riding environment.
