Tires can be said to be the most feared emergencies in the process of riding electric bicycles. Experienced users know that tires are often punctured on the rear wheel. Why? Uncover the mystery of an electric bicycle tire blowout.
Generally speaking, the wheels that push the electric bicycle forward carry the power output by the motor, and the rear wheels are the driving wheels. First of all, for safety reasons, the design of electric bicycles is that the center of gravity is back, so the load-bearing capacity of the rear tires is higher than that of the front wheels. Secondly, the whole vehicle needs to rely on the friction between the rear wheels and the ground to generate propulsion, so the wear of the rear wheels will be greater. When the rear tire is worn out, it is naturally more likely to be punctured.
Tires are the parts with a high maintenance rate for electric bicycles, so choosing the right tires becomes very important. While high-quality tires reduce the maintenance rate, they also increase safety performance.
Of course, no matter how good the tires are, they must pay attention to maintenance, because once the tires have problems, they can be injured by a fall, or endanger the lives of drivers and passengers. Therefore, the maintenance of tires is particularly critical. In addition to avoiding excessive sun exposure and excessive wear, the maintenance of tires must also frequently observe whether there are abnormal tire pressures. If the tire pressure is found to be too low, the tire may have been scratched and should be repaired in time; if the tire pressure is found to be too high, the damaged part of the tire will burst during fast driving.
