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.

Yeah, even 28 is pretty fast (class III top speed). I refuse to get on anything with sub 20 inch wheels if I'm doing something above 20mph. Crashing on tarmac sucks so bad, at least there's dirt if you are mountain biking, or snow if you are skiing. Tarmac is like falling on a belt sander.
