micromobility is seen as a potential solution to moving people more efficiently around cities"

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.

Gonna go ahead and disagree with you there Billy Brown: E-bikes in general don't really look dorky, but you managed to find one that does.
Looks like a wannabe dirt bike. Also the lack of cross beam means that thing will likely fold after hitting a speed bump.
The aluminum frame looks pretty beefy, I don't think it'll fold. But your legs better be the right height for this thing because there isn't any adjusting the seat height.
*dork bike
FTFY
I think the seat bracket is corner bracing the top of the triangles to make up for the lack of seat tube
Definitely dorky
LOL this was my exact thought. I actually kinda like the way it looks, but it has the same energy as an engineering student inventing his own ebike in the 1980s.
