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.

That's ridiculously heavy. Okay, mechanics have a legit excuse for not being strong enough to lift bikes.
I think most mechanics are fully capable of lifting 80 lbs onto a stand, but doing it many times a day every day for years without a break seems like a recipe for back injuries.
I can lift mine up with one hand even, but only once or twice lol. After that I'd probably be increasingly unenthusiastic about it.
