Tires

[Errol A Gettner]

Hi Court,
I'm building my own ebike & want your opinion on what size & type tires to use. The rear motor rim has an internal width of 30mm. The front rim has a internal width of 25mm. I'm 70 years young & want all around tires like street, gravel, trail paths, & maybe sand. I also have a Radrover that I really like & ride alot. Maybe similar tires like those.
Thanks, Errol

Take a look at the Schwalbe Marathon Plus tires for EBikes... designed for durability and puncture resistance.

Based on your rim diameter and width I would recommend the 26"x1.75" or 26"x2.0" size for comfort and grip.
