Weight limits for bicycles need to be higher and more transparent, especially if the majority of people want to use them.

That’s why the manufacturers clearly define what sort of abuse the component is expected to withstand.

For example, take a look on this document on DT Swiss wheels (took it as example because I recently bought DT wheel set and checked the manual)

"Transportation using lightweight vehicles such as bicycles or scooters, especially electric ones that may be borrowed as part of a self-service rental program in which people rent vehicles for short-term use within a town or city.

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.
