eFAT BIKE & PLUS TIRE
There’s nothing more welcoming to the world of the outdoors than a fat tire bike. The wider tires do not just differentiate them aesthetically. They provide that much-needed grip when riding in snow, traversing sandy dunes, or needing that push in dirt and marsh. The combination of 5” tires with low pressures for terrain capabilities makes fat tire bikes a little hard to pedal which is exactly why you should be investing in an electric fat tire bike. These pedal-assisted bikes are much more capable for difficult terrain and the assistive pedaling makes them a perfect winter partner.
Why Are Fat Tire e-bikes Better?
Electric fat bikes have become extremely popular and experienced cyclists find it better for many reasons.
- Comfort: The wide tires are able to absorb many bumps and vibrations on the road. When on the trail, they can easily ride over any roots or branches sticking out.
- Diverse Terrain: Fat tire e-bikes are probably the only e-bikes that can take you on any terrain. Snow or sand, these bikes are extremely efficient on any surface.
- Accessories: Electric bikes come with many accessories which makes the bike a substitute for a car or motorcycle for daily commutes. Things like headlights, charging ports, heavy payload carrying capacity, and storage racks.
- Electric Power: Batteries and fat tires are the perfect combinations for cyclists. They offer a balance of assistance while pedaling and allow you to throttle when you’re tired. Steep climbs are no longer a challenge and the extra weight balances the bike on tough terrain
