micromobility is seen as a potential solution to moving people more efficiently around cities"

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.

Does anyone else have bad experience with Conti tires? Car, bicycle, motorcycle... I find they wear out quickly, have less traction, are more flat-prone, and have much weaker sidewalls than tires in the same market segment. I gave up on Conti on my bicycle when the sidewalls would start to disintegrate ~1500 miles. My car and motorcycle both came with Contis from the factory. Just terrible. I put Michelin Pilot Sport on the car and motorcycle, and Vittoria Rubino Pro on the daily commuter. Never looked back.

I've only had Kenda, Bontrager, and Chao Yang: All of them pretty much fine. I've heard a lot of people speak highly of GP5000s though.
