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.

These things look badass but I'm afraid of riding anything that doesn't have redundant brakes and at least 2 wheels.

Can't wait to see people doing 70 km/h on unicycles buzzing around.

One thing I can appreciate about EUC riders, is that they are always geared up. 👍

I saw, as a passenger in a cab, a dude eat shit on the highway in new york city on one of these and I still think of that from time to time - got myself a one wheel though

One wheels are more dangerous as far as I know
