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.

Pinion drive bike are just stupid expensive still, it's a fancy and relatively new system. I'd love to have one of these, but couldn't afford to buy one.

In the world of touring bikes, this isn't even close to the most expensive either - check out the Koga World Traveller with Rolhoff hub at almost $7,000.
