Decathlon.pl Selling Illegal E-Bikes

[kermit_xc]

You won't find the Stromer offer at Decathlon in West Europe. I wonder why.

Besides, Decathlon is not supported by the cycling majority in Poland anymore. The reason being, Decathlon still keeps its operation in Russia. Meanwhile, the competition opened their fine stores around, like CentrumRowerowe.pl or Sportano. Yes, many of us still wear clothes bought in Decathlon before Feb 24th, 2022.

Decathlon can only dream to have such a collection of gear at their stores. CentrumRowerowe.pl

Decathlon will not have such an impressive offer of e-bikes and bicycles as CentrumRowerowe.pl has got.

Decathlon looks shabby when compared to Sportano.pl. Here's the Sportano's showroom. In case you are interested in a specific product, you select it from a computer screen, and the sales person will bring it to you. The warehouse of Sportano is enormous.

nie pierdol dziadziu I get it's exciting to think you uncovered a geo-political conspiracy to sell e-bikes in Eastern Europe - but I have a strong feeiling you really might have not. Go for a ride and chill my man

It took Decathlon over a year to cease their Russian operations but the Decathlon stores will operate by the end of 2023 there.

You should visit one of Decathlon stores in Poland to see what they are offering. Very poor offer for cyclists. The stores are big but shabby.

ay caramba !?

I was testing your Polish language skill.

Thoreau declared that if the government required people to participate in injustice by obeying “unjust laws,” then people should “break the laws” even if they ended up in prison. “Under a government which imprisons any unjustly,” he asserted, “the true place for a just man is also a prison.”

The golden rule of freedom is doing anything the individual pleases unless it harms other people. Riding a high-speed e-bike on bike paths is jeopardizing other people. You cannot expect individuals are responsible if a guy rides his illegal e-scooter at 35 km/h, for instance. You cannot expect such an individual riding an HS e-bike on bike path responsibly, either.

There is also the old Roman rule: Dura lex sed lex (hard law, still a law).
