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.

Finally an ebike I'd be caught dead on!

But just imagine hitting that board-on-a-2-by-4 ramp on the sidewalk in front of your house. The neighbors kids sitting on your lawn double daring you and you hit that thing clocking the full 80. You might be dead 18 seconds later when your body hits the ground, but you'll be a legend in your neighborhood forever.
