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.

I am on board with coming up with these lines. I'd say though that my wife's normal bike is 50 lbs and my ebike is 60. but a weight line, I don't know - is 100lbs it? when I made my comment I was thinking of "e-motorbikes" vs ebikes, thinking the power for motorbikes would be too much.
it's a fair point about speed - perhaps setting speed limits in parks could be enforced, (not sure) or park Rangers could determine bike validity based on power but there seems to be ways to fake that or change dynamically.
