micromobility - Bikes, scooters, boards: Whatever floats your goat, this is micromobility
Ebikes, bicycles, scooters, skateboards, longboards, eboards, motorcycles, skates, unicycles, heelies, or an office chair: Whatever floats your goat, this is all things micromobility!
"Transportation using lightweight vehicles such as bicycles or scooters, especially electric ones that may be borrowed as part of a self-service rental program in which people rent vehicles for short-term use within a town or city.
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.

No, this is not a lightweight design, it's frigging 27 kg!
It's not cheap either - at least, i've been concidering a Cooper electric single-speed as a belt-drive commuter, and it's half the price of the Veloretti, and almost half the weight (ab. 14 kg vs 27!). It's sad, as i found out Cooper bikes do not ship to Finland (anymore).
Never heard of them before but the belt drive caught my attention: Do they have any geared options?
Edit: Looks like they do, but unfortunately they're all chain driven. Bummer.
Yup, correct. It's either a single speed belt drive Cooper - or the chain drive models with gears. But the Veloretti in question does not have gears (hence my comparison))
Let me know if you have good belt-drive candidates for a commuting bike: light, geared and electric. Think electrified Mikamaro or (budget friendlier) Schindelhauer (the last ones are built on aluminium frames, though - not my cup of tea)).
