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.

I got a cheap one for like 16 bucks that goes onto the handlebars: 10/10 would recommend!

Dont those block your mirrors? Are you worried you might not be able to bail? I have a 2 piece I got for 6 bucks, but its hot and inconvenient enough I rarely use the pants unless theres a literal typhoon.

Most bikes don't have mirrors
