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.

After 10,000 miles, the owner reports that it still holds more than 80% of its original capacity.

Saved you a click.

And a replacement battery even when it dies drop below 80% is cheap enough to be reasonable and batteries are highly recyclable.

I would love to live in the range of a eBike for my office commute. At least I live in the battery range for my PHEV and it is only some days I have to go.
