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.

"German mobility startup Dolas eBike has unveiled a modern utility take on a tandem bike"

"such things as a second seat, static handlebar, rear rack, baskets and so on can be mounted to the long rail up top"

On one hand, yes, two riders can be in-line -- but by that logic, all long-tail cargo bikes could be "tandems" and that just doesn't feel right.

I'd say it's not really a tandem unless the stoker can stoke (i.e., it's got a second functioning crank).

It’s the second rider that makes it a tandem bike though, not a third wheel.
