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.

You're not going to convince me that this is worth it over just buying a purpose built ebike. It's not exactly cheaper. For that price or only a little more, you could buy a whole new ebike.
I think it's kinda neat you can just toss it on a bike, but yeah, I'd probably just buy another bike or just a regular conversion kit before I spent a ton on these. People like us probably aren't their target audience though.
