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.

It's a wonderful build that i think is really good value considering the materials used. I ride a hsd myself and have been considering this as the upgrade now that I'm 20k in miles in.

Might be worth keeping the bike you already have if there's nothing irreparably wrong with it though. Tern makes great stuff from what I've heard, wish I could afford one of their ebikes. Kind of want one of their folding bikes too...

That said, yeah, I can't afford this bike either. Looks nice though!

Have their Vektron. That is pure gold. Goes everywhere, real fast. Range is understated (either that or I'm too fit). Need public transit? Fine.

Expensive? Aye. But pays itself real fast (in a city you can actually use it without fearing death too much)

The Vektron is so cool, I want one badly, but I'd settle for a Node D7i lol
