Considering I had to look up what PID refers to, I have some catching up to do. It's one of those acronyms that isn't cleared up when you know what the letters refer to. Proportional, Integral, and Derivative; sounds a lot like calculus to me. After a couple of youtube videos, I'm getting the idea, but obviously part of the challenge here is that PID tuning in the system we are talking about is a matter of opinion. What feels great to one person and in one sort of terrain may feel wrong to another rider or in a different setting.
Does that make sense?
This was somewhat helpful to me. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wkfEZmsQqiA](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wkfEZmsQqiA)
Also - eMTBs are much more complicated than they seem from the saddle it turns out.
