Ebikes, bicycles, scooters, skateboards, longboards, eboards, motorcycles, skates, unicycles, heelies, or an office chair: Whatever floats your goat, this is all things micromobility!

"Transportation using lightweight vehicles such as bicycles or scooters, especially electric ones that may be borrowed as part of a self-service rental program in which people rent vehicles for short-term use within a town or city.

micromobility is seen as a potential solution to moving people more efficiently around cities"

It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

I think I'd be happy with a regular brompton haha, they just came out with 12 speeds too!

I rode one and was impressed at how well it rode for how tiny it seems, but for the price, they better be impressive!

I am seriously considering one but might just buy a knockoff. My main bike is in the shop though, so I'm probably just feeling antsy.

If I were rich I'd buy one but I'm waiting for a good belt driven folder, possibly ebike, possibly not. Wish the Tern Vektron had a belt variant.
