Ebikes, bicycles, scooters, longboards, unicycles: 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.

Rating from how much the bikers here love the loud noise they are making, one would probably have to find a new range of customers for bikes that don't wake up the neighborhood at three in the night when one returns from a late evening with his biker friends.

That'd be me lol, motorcycles seem cool but I hate how obnoxiously loud ICE ones are.

Not all ICE motorcycles are like that. Some people straight pipe their motorcycle to make it obnoxiously loud. But my Suzuki GZ250 is fairly quiet, even at full throttle at 8000rpm you couldn't hear it from a block away
