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.

Ah man, the pressure's ON
Tubular!
I was today years old when I learned self inflating tires were a thing.
Well, they're self inflating wheels, not tires. So...
Well, shit.
The compressor is in the hub, but the tire is the only part which is inflated.
That's actually really cool, but I already want to many specialty hubs for one bike. I need it as a combo with igh in one and dynamo in the other.
I'd love to have the same with a belt drive.
On one hand, cool innovation, on the other, no more organic pure mechanic bikes.
Don't they already have electronic shifters?
Really cool
