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.

Designed to tackle the trails, Brompton’s new G Line is right at home on cracked, potholed and cobblestoned urban streets.

This might be better for my diehard biking buddy. We test drove the smallish model, and he was having a hell of a time trying to use it while we were biking behind him and shrieking with laughter. His feet were so big that his foot was either hitting the rack on the back, or the front wheel whenever he was pedaling.

This resulted in him limping around three blocks with a dorky demo vest on, while we shouted suggestions and he indignantly tried to find a body position that allowed him to ride xD
