Motor issues are very rare, but do happen. If you really want an ebike, go for it. Being worried about technical issues is perhaps your conscience saying you should not spend all that money

I would think Bosch and Shimano will back their products w/ service and parts for a good long while, going forward and make relatively "safe" choices in 2025.

Like my TQ drive a lot but it's on upper-tier bikes only from what I can see.
