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.

any firsthand experience with a solid-wheel scooter is what I'm looking for, thanks!

whoa! so it instantly lost all traction or stopped immediately and you were thrown forward?

mine was on a flat road, just unlucky on a bump.

No, I mean that I hurt myself whenn trying to get the damn tire off. Getting the flat was quite uneventful.
