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.

Did they really have to put the sensor on the end of the handlebars, and not in a more protected area on the bike like right under the seat?
I've encountered nothing but problems from kickstands, so that's the very first thing to go. When I stop my bike for a riding break, if I'm nearby and don't have to lock it up to a pole or a tree, I just lay my bike on the ground/pavement.
That sensor would be busted within a couple days or less with the way I ride and park. I actually have protective steel caps on the ends of my handlebars to protect my bicycle from my own habit of laying it on the ground at times.
For real, why in a sensitive place on the ends of the bars and not protected under the seat instead? Hell, that would also help protect it from the weather even.
Planned obsolescence? ๐ค
