Any Trek XM700+ riders out there?
Looking for a ebike, would prefer to buy a complete unit I can get serviced. I looked at a few and the Trek XM700+ looks like it would fit the bill.
Anyone have one? Your thoughts?
I simply need help on the hills, otherwise I am fine, so a decent range should be OK on even a smaller 400w battery since I pedal so much otherwise.

I've had the XM700 for about 2 months, so far so good. Like you I wanted a complete bike with the ease of local service when needed. I also wanted a speed pedalec, having tested bikes with motors that cut out just before 20 mph. I did a lot of research and the Bosch mid-drives have a lot going for them and appear to be very reliable.
I bought the bike because I wanted to commute to work again, which just hasn't been happening at much in the last year. My commute is a 11 miles which used to take about 50 minutes. Now it takes me 30 minutes. I highly recommend the XM700
