Ebikes, scooters, longboards: 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.

That's just a motorcycle with extra parts.
Fewer parts.
Faaar fewer parts.
Compared to an ice motorcycle, probably. Compared to an electric motorcycle, I don't see how.
It won’t have anti lock brakes and that’s at least a few parts. A few extremely important parts when it comes to stopping in emergency or non ideal traction conditions.
Now bosch released an abs for ebikes.
But for this kind of speed we will need more than an ebike brake!
