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.

There is going to be a huge collapse of all ebike manufacturers. I got an ebike for my son for $250. So far, it compares well with ebikes from 3 years ago that cost $2500.

Probably something like the ebike berm peak recently tested. Surprisingly good value for the money.
