eBike technology explained

Hey everyone!

Been out on the trails a lot lately with my full-suspension eMTB, and it got me thinking about all the tech packed into these machines. Specifically, I'm curious about the differences in motor types – hub vs. mid-drive – and how that impacts climbing steep, technical singletrack. What are your thoughts on the pros and cons of each for serious mountain biking, especially regarding torque and handling? I'm always looking to understand my bike better and optimize my rides!
