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.

High car prices have pushed people towards to the micromobility sector, where much smaller vehicles offer greater flexibility for a fraction of the cost.

Huh, I'm not gonna buy one because I have 2-3 more bikes/ ebikes and an electric unicycle in line in front of it, but that's really cool. I don't see schematics, but I didn't look very hard. I did look at the parts section and that's cool. Looks like they might have gotten their start making kits for other manufacturers vehicles.
