best tyres for electric bikes image
slipknot01
I got a touring bike but I live on dirt roads and dirt roads make me really tired. Im looking to make my bike electric so I wont get tired on the dirt roads then pedal the rest of the way on paved roads. How much does the battery cost and the electric motor cost? Im only gonna use it for 4 miles on my dirt roads then the rest of the way I pedal.
Answer
before you try to make your bike electric (which I agree is probably prohibitively expensive), there are a few things that you can do to make your ride on dirt roads easier. First, are you using your lowest (easiest to pedal) gears, or are you using a high (difficult to pedal) gear? If it is the latter, start using your lowest gears. If you are using your lowest gears and it is still wearing you out too badly, go to your local bike shop and have your gearing changed so you have lower gears. With the right gearing, an electric bike should be unnecessary. Most bikes come with gearing that is too high anyway. You may also want to consider larger tires, if the reason you are tired out is from getting beaten up by an uncomfortable bike.

How to fix a flat tire on electric moped?
KZ
I got a mini electric moped from one of my friends just to screw around on. The back tire is messed up and will not even air up. Is there something i can put in is that will harden the whole thing or anything at all i can do. I dont really want to buy a whole new tire for it. I just want something to fix it or make it so it wont be flat. Any ideas?
Thank you

Kz, there should be a tube in the tire, remove the wheel first. Have someone who has patched a bike tire before show you how to remove the tube, and repair the tube with a glue patch.
Then air it up & check the tube for leaks with a spray bottle of soapy water, replace the tube & wheel, and go.
