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.

Ewwww no. No no no no NO. Fuck no. I don't want to share my bike lane with these things! They're heavier than most motorcycles! That's dangerous as all hell. A rear-end collision is likely to be deadly. Americans might be used to Surron being able to slap a couple fake pedals on their motorcycles to skirt the law, but that's absolutely insane. The point of a bike lane is to reduce conflict between heavy vehicles and fragile road users, not to separate "pedal havers" from "pedal not havers".
Thankfully in France - where they're from - and presumably most of the EU, bicycles with too much power (here in Belgium it's "speed pedelecs" which are capped at 4kW /45 km/h) are banned from all cycle lanes except where authorized by explicit signage.
