thinking about getting one of these, will definitely get same tires also, subscribed 👍👍😃

@@rcplaytime thanks 😊👍👍 It is great bike for the money. Some little things I do not like, but would buy one if I did not have it already. I will make another tire review and 1000km review hopefully soon. I bought these new ones as I thought I need something a bit more suitable for dirt roads and tarmac as my riding is mostly tarmac but the street tires did not do too well on dirt and gravel. Pic of the tires on my last community post. They seem best from these 3 I have, but still only 10km testing done.

Thanks for the video & test/review the tires! I'm also thinking about changing to street tires. Do 20x3" size fit as well?

[@Usva78]

@@michaelkinc2336 like some viewer commented, these tires are 20x4 20 rim, 4 width, but lower profile. So not completely 20x4 as some reviews in aliexpress said. These do fit but I would not try 20x3. Innova has street tires with 20x4 1/4 size so they are lityle bit wider even. Reviews say those do fit... but if I remember right they only hold 1.4 BAR pressure.

Hi mate thank you for your video review iam still looking at buying a set but crap uk weather and pot holes in the road might not be any good to us them

@@revparsons3tl these might not be so good for me either as there are these gravel roads I like to ride 😅 on tarmac they are exellent and suspension takes care of bounces... loose gravel is not fun 😅

[@armyca]

Actually they are 20x4... 20 is rim size, 4 is width. So they just lower profile than original tires, what make wheel size a bit smaller.

[@Usva78]

@@armyca thats how I was thinking it but read reviews saying they were 20x3. You are correct 👍👍😊 But with the lower profile should I not see reduction in speed when the electric motor has max rpm? Or maybe the reduction in drag or whatever the word is, nullifies the reduction in speed 🤔😅

[@putteslaintxtbks5166]

Because these are a low profile 4x20, you should have more torque, like all the gears are one lower setting, but top speed should be less and it will change the speedometer. At least some ebikes, the speed can be changed for lower profile to correct it. It may have come set at 24 inch and correct now at like 22 inch. Because it now rolls easier, I wonder how it may change the battery range for the bike? The tire needs to turn more per unit driven, but if easier?

[@Usva78]

@@putteslaintxtbks5166 I had to correct the size to 22 from 24 for the original tires to get accurate reading on display. But now it seems almost correct compared to gps. The faster acceleration might be due to added torque. Lets see if Im able to test the batterylife on these in near future 😊👍

33 euros per tire))This tire for Albaba delivery costs 20 euros

[@Usva78]

@@hvg7351 for me delivery was for free and at that moment 2 tires with inner tubes with delivery was like 40€ with all the discounts I got, if I remember correctly. You might want to check if there is other vendor there that delivers free to your country? 80€ for 2 tires is not horrible but I do not know how long these last, so if they wear quickly, then it is a bit much I guess.

@@Usva78 They will not wear out, they hold the bike very poorly when there is dirt, sand, clay, as well as when there are leaves in the fall

@@Usva78 I had to leave the stock Chao Yang, it is noisy but holds the road well

[@Usva78]

@@hvg7351 that is what I was thinking. On gravel it did not feel good but dry tarmac it is awesome tire compared to original tire on the bike. Good to hear your insights. I did order other tire too so lets see how that works. I need tire that handles dirt roads a bit better at the moment so might change too 👍👍
