    How’s a motorbike that weighs more than 4 people, costs $12k, and can do 120 mph _micro_mobility? What’s the criteria for being Micromobility, smaller than a Cybertruck? A Boeing 737?

    Jokes aside, I’ve always considered micromobility the strictly-personal devices that don’t need registration and can be picked up and brought into a train or a flat.

      I guess lightweight is relative but I’ve always seen motorcycles, dirtbikes, motor scooters, etc. lumped in with micromobility to a degree (even ATVs and golf carts lol). Kind of a blurry line I guess, I would consider small EVTOLs micromobilty even.

      Yeah, something (Honda) Monkey-sized might be fine but yeah with all the extra work/costs I’ll just stick with the weak ebike I have already.

        Agree. Nothing like driving through the gears manually. Or preparing a lower gear on advance, for an upcoming corner. Or feathering the clutch to keep the turbo engaged during a corner. Ahhh I love manual cars.
