Hello everyone.
I just signed up to the forum, it looks like there is lots of knowledgable cyclists here so I would like to ask some questions and hope some of you may have the answers.
I bought an Oxygen S Cross CB bike last week, it will be delivered this week, well hopefully this week on Saturday, before it arrives I am wondering about changing the tyres
I believe Kendra are the supplied tyres. I have looked at Schwalbe Energizer Plus touring tyres, the dealer said they can fit them, I am after something that performs well on the roads and is more puncture resistant than the Kendra tyres supplied with the Oyxgen bike.
Would the Energizer Plus touring tyres be an upgrade to the Kendra tyres and how would they affect the riding of the bike on roads, there are many hills in the Scottish Borders and my legs are not what they used to be so I do not want to be struggling on the hills but I also do not want punctures when I am fifteen miles from home.
The other thing which worries me with an e-bike is spokes bursting and rain getting into the electronic parts, what are people's experiences with this.
Any information would be appreciated, if you need more info from me then just ask.
Thanks.
