My wife has 3 Bianchi bikes with MAHLE X35 systems. She loves them! The only issue we've had was some spoke breakage on one bike's rear wheel. Based on her experience I bought an MAHLE X20 equipped gravel bike for myself. Barely 1000 kms on it so far but it rides like a normal bike at 0 assist level but when I'd shift down to the "granny gear" on my old road bikes, I just move the assist to level 1 with X20 instead. I still get a good workout and enjoy the ride, but I always know I'll make it back home if it I overdo it.

We have experience with the Mahle hub based system. 2 bikes with this system have had failures of the free hub and this is both expensive and requires special tools to change. Another downside is that you are stuck with the wheels fitted to the bike when you buy it. I have now opted for the Pinnarello Nitro crank based system. It is fabulous, light and very aero. Non of the above problems apply and it also provides data on cadence and my power metering to my head unit.

My X35 motor really struggles on steep hills climbs, such as 10%+ & i feel you have to keep your cadence quite high to keep the power output high enough to help you up. So it's definitely got a sweet spot in terms of rider input.
