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, I didn't realize that it was electric. I'm used to the more "traditional" cargo bikes that have 1HP (human power).
I have a rear hub ebike and live in a hilly area: The motor makes a massive difference! Mid drives make for an even bigger difference from what I've heard, but I haven't been able to afford one yet.
