Fat tire electric bikes require less maintenance than conventional ones. For most elderly people, the maintenance of ebike has always been a hassle. If what you own is a thin-tired bike, you will have to inflate the tires from time to time due to the tire leaks after long term use. However, a fat tire ebike can greatly avoid this problem. Even if under the low tire pressure condition, the fat tire ebike can still bring the rider a more comfortable riding experience. Just a little maintenance can guarantee normal work for several months, which greatly reduces your workload. Also, the fat tire ebike is usually equipped with a thicker and stronger bicycle frame, which means that fewer parts can get damaged and will need to be replaced or repaired in daily use, and it may be an investment for the bicycle owner.
