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 got mine for $700 and conversion kits are even cheaper (also, better). They don't have to be expensive. There's also just regular bicycles: Even though I have an ebike, I still regularly ride my hybrid for fun, exercise, or if I'm just not in a hurry.

Check out the Lectric XP3 - it retails at $999
