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.

The Priority 600HXT is a solid, low-maintenance, belt-driven hardtail mountain bike with an impressive build and thumb-tap gearbox shifting.

Gearboxes are amazing! Unfortunately they've had really hard time competing with derailleur because of pedalling efficiency :(

Also price is so high that lot of people who'd want low maintenance system, wouldn't be able to afford it

For ebikes it makes more sense because the efficiency isn't as big a deal with the assist if you ask me.
