Ebikes, bicycles, scooters, longboards, unicycles: Whatever floats your goat, this is all things micromobility!
"Transportation using lightweight vehicles such as bicycles or scooters, especially electric ones that may be borrowed as part of a self-service rental program in which people rent vehicles for short-term use within a town or city.
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.

No chain is sufficient if a thief is set on stealing something. Chains and locks only stop opportunistic theft. You can cut a u lock in 30 seconds with a battery operated angle grinder that fits in a small backpack. EG this 30s video https://youtu.be/RI9SEThrJMY
You can cut 4 cables within a minute with a hand tool https://youtu.be/-rphMwxTr54
You can cut some ulocks in 30 seconds. Try that with a high end ABUS or better yet a Skunk Lock lol
If I had an expensive bike, I would 100% buy a Skunklock Chemical: Bike thieves should suffer.
angle grinder stops
