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.

  1. Being ignorant of how to use a tool is not anyone else's fault
  2. Sharing education that even a cheap bike can be improved by a proper fit is a good thing. It doesn't require expensive gear to get a comfortable fit, assuming you bought the right size bike in the first place
