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.

It's mid-drive, not a hub motor. In my experience I either lose traction and momentum or pop a wheelie rather than stall due to lack of power. Granted that I also lift heavy and have quite powerful legs so that helps too.
