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.

To age with?

When I hear that, I'm thinking this bike will have parts and upgrades available for the next 30+ years. The article didn't seem to even hint at that.

Am I just confused about what that statement is supposed to mean? And I ask this as someone who rides a bike that's 30 years old and shows no signs of slowing down 😉

It means if you buy this, you will get old and die?

Yeah this sounds weird to me. My ebike to age with is the one I built. Or a hardtail or street+ frame with fenders and racks and that delectable pinion mgu if it was both available in my area and at a price that wouldn't bankrupt me...
