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.

Time to install a front hub. Small geared like the Bafang G311 for lightweight or Grin All-Axle for the same reliability as the rest of your bike. ๐
I run a rear G310 with 11sp drivetrain but to be honest if I knew everything I do now when I designed the build, I'd have left my drivetrain intact and used a front hub instead. It's way easier to do, fewer compromises and it could even end up lighter.
