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.

Compared to an ice motorcycle, probably. Compared to an electric motorcycle, I don't see how.

It won’t have anti lock brakes and that’s at least a few parts. A few extremely important parts when it comes to stopping in emergency or non ideal traction conditions.

Now bosch released an abs for ebikes.

But for this kind of speed we will need more than an ebike brake!
