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 just want to see some pinion mgu in canada. We have enough chain and derailleur bikes already. I do fat bike winter work commute and it's really a pain getting all the snow and salt off after each ride. Gimme those sweet sweet mid drive all in one motor and transmission with computer timed electronic shifting belted to the wheel please.

Electric pinion + gate belt drive train would be badass!

IKR. The features on that thing are sick. The stationary shift and auto shift at stop really sell it for me, and the earliest optimal shift delay after pressing a shift button to mitigate wear and tear is just icing.
