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.

Like this type of Scooter? This is rated for 300ish lbs. 230 isn't that heavy. Yoru weight will be worse for range but that means find the biggest battery you can.

I'm 290 and just got a cargo electric bike. Things are out there for the bigger guy.

300 seems pretty solid, I just didn't wanna find a 240 one and go over a bump and suddenly snap it
