Your ebike's motor has probably reached it's full speed on flat surface, so getting tubeless wont improve this much. But... Tubeless could potentially affect tire diameter + lower rolling resistance from lack of innertube, but Minus is micro resistance of sealant. + lower rotational mass, faster acceleration and breaking + lower overall ebike's mass, so faster on uphill and If I'm not mistaken rolling ressistance is affected by weight, so 1-3% less rolling resistance just from lower gravitational force exerted on tire. Like you said, lighter bike, more puncture resistant, less friction=power efficiency. Only downside is compatibility, price, need for refill sealant sometimes and more frequent pumping.

The very first day I went out for a ride on my e-bike I headed to some dirt roads here in Petaluma to see how well my new mountain e-bike would perform, it performed great but for both tires getting flat because of goat heads. I kept the tubes but added sealant into the tubes rather than get tubeless rims and tires since I couldn't afford them, after adding sealant I haven't had a flat since. BTW I used Green slime since it was available at most auto part stores. Since than I went with another brand, but you can do your own research. Having said that if you can afford tubeless rims and tires, get them, well worth the cost and performance.

I have a 1.5kw Senada Saber first with the 26x4” stock tires and now with 26x3.5” Vee Speedsters (30TPI tube ready) I have 5 tubes laying around that can be patched and reused. I’m sooo tired of having to randomly change a tube, although I can do the whole process in 5-7 minutes now. Tubeless seems like the way to go as I wouldn’t have to remove the wheel to quickly fix a flat tire - which is the biggest advantage in my opinion.

If you forget to check tire pressure, it will get low and sealer leaks out. You have to add more sealer, regularly because it dries out inside of tire. If you lose pressure on ride, and bead separates from rim, you need special high volume air supply to refill. You need special rims and tires. To much hassle for me, will stick with tubes.

What is funny about a tube tire the worse scenario is a spoke puncture which I had happen on a 26x2.125" tube. The tire had Green Slime in it and that sealant would not seal against it. I removed the tube and use a wrap of black electrical tape around the rim and replaced the tube with a new tube that had the Green Slime in it. I never had problems after that with the the rim and eventually went with mag wheels which have sealed bearings. This bike had a 212cc Predator engine on it and a standard spoked wheel would never hold up under the power from this engine. A solution would be which is better is to go to motorcycle rims and DOT rated tires. I would say that from my persoanal experience that the mag wheels with sealed bearings are a winner since I've ran this same bike over 3 years with no problems with the tires except the rear tire wears faster than the front tire since some of the rural roads are chipped during the summer and believe it or not, the front tire will probably last another year with well over 5k of miles on it.

All the fat tires on my ebikes are pretty loose once on the rim, the tire can be mounted by hand no tool required. Vtuvia, Lectric, Himiway are all the same way.

@captaincaveman85323 жыл бұрын
It shouldn't effect rolling resistance but it does weigh the bike down reducing range. I'm not particularly a big fan of dual hub motors personally. They do good for traction in a straight line but can get squirrely on turns, especially on slick terrain like wet roads or gravel. Essentially when you turn the wheel they become opposing forces and make it easier for your front tire to slip out from under you. If you are doing dual motors I would suggest a rear hub + mid drive setup.
@grey-adventures9 ай бұрын
Several important steps were missed in this video. Rims should be cleaned with alcohol and a clean cloth before installing the tape. When installing the tape, pull tight to minimize air pockets and rotate wheel in the direction of travel. Apply 6" at a time and press out the air bubbles from the center to the edges. Start the tape opposite of the valve stem hole and overlap about 6" at the end. You also want tape about 5mm wider than the inner rim width so it goes up the edge a little on each side and can seat into the spoke channel. Cut excess tape from valve stem hole being careful not to damage tape inside the rim. The 4oz of sealant used in the video is not enough for a fat bike. Use 4 oz for MTB and 8 oz for full size fat tire.

Tannus provides a softer ride. More "suspension" if you will. 6. Slime etc al in a regular tube gives equal "flat prevention. If your getting snake bite flats or sliced valves you are running under pressure anyway. Stop it.

Tubeless is a good option for E bikes but telling people it’s going to make it faster and give them more range is nonsense! You’re talking about under 5 pounds and that is not going to affect the range or top speed in any significant way. I think tubeless is a great option but simply to avoid flats. Now on a regular mountain bike going tubeless making it slightly lighter actually will help you but not compared to a heavy fat tire bike. Come on dude let’s inform people with truth and not sugarcoat it. Edit: As an example I weigh 180 pounds and the top speed of my 2000w E bike is 40mph. When my girl rides my bike which only weighs 130 pounds it doesn’t affect the top speed or range at all and that’s a 50 pound difference!

Three pounds is hardly perceptible on an ebike. My wife weighs less than I do and we can both go the same speed and have the same endurance on our class 2 ebikes. You can fix a tube flat without having to take the tire off the rim. Also putting run flat or slime in a tube is a lot less messy when it’s in a tube than when it’s in a tire when you need to take the tire off the rim.

Do not waste your time and money with the gorilla tape on sun ringle mulefuts. Go ahead and spend the money on the sun ringle tape. I wish somebody would have told me this

Tubeless for fat tires is pointless, way more trouble than it's worth. They almost never get flats, if your under 15 psi.

Tubeless tyres for clincher wheels makes no sense. What would make sense are Tubeless tyres for tubular wheels. Think about it folks…….

I love your work, your bikes, your knowledge BUT, please don't edit videos like this. The zoom-in/zoom-out switching even mid sentence is wrong, annoying and is evidence of poor editing skills.

Why not weigh yourself pick up the bike Weigh you and the bike and subtract your weight Easy and more accurate. Thanks for the great video Tubeless is in its future 🙌
