At Tannus we have 2 product lines, both 100% compatible with eBike, which will not only protect you from punctures but will also provide you with tires for many thousands of kilometers.

Here are the most frequently asked questions we have been asked about electric bicycles:

1. WHAT TANNUS OPTIONS DO I HAVE FOR MY EBIKE?

1.1 For Urban / City / Road eBike

If we look at the urban or road electric bicycles or with a electrical conversion kitThe best option is to opt for Tannus 100% solid puncture-proof tires.  

eBikes, compared to traditional or classic bicycles, have in common the fact that they have a flat tire, but in this case suffer more punctures.

This is due to the weight of the engines of the ebikes and that make many more kilometersas a result of the tire wear occurs much faster. 

To this end, the design of the company's own Tannus is especially useful for urban city eBikes because it guarantees no punctures and is also guarantee a long life that can be up to three times longer than that of a traditional bike tire.

All our Tannus Tires 100% Puncture Protection models are suitable for eBikes.we recommend in particular the following models

• Tannus Portal 700×28for road eBike with wide rim.

• Tannus Shield 700×32for trekking or urban eBike.

• Tannus Razorblade 26″x1.75for trekking or urban eBike.

• Tannus Mini-Velo 16×1,25 (Brompton): for the new electric Brompton.

1.2 For E-MTB

For the electric mountain bikes (E-MTB) we have the protection Tannus Armoura unique anti-puncture solution that works with the traditional inner tube system, not with Tubeless. At the beginning of the year we launched the most requested size by our users of E-MTB and it is the size 27,5″ PLUS that allows mounting bicycle tires of 27.5″x2.6″ up to 27.5″ x 3.0″.. Although all models are suitable for eBikes, this model is the one that has been launched and designed specifically for electric mountain bikes: 

• Tannus Armour 27.5″x (2.6″ to 3.0″)for E-MTB with 27,5″ PLUS tires

2. WHAT ARE THE SPECIFIC FEATURES AND BENEFITS OF USING TANNUS ON EBIKES / ELECTRIC BICYCLES?

High durability and anti-puncture efficiency

Both Tannus Tires (solid tires) and Tannus Armour (anti-puncture protection - semi mousse) have the following characteristics main characteristic is its duration – useful life. Thanks to the compound Aither 1.1 patented worldwide, we are the only tire brand on the market that guarantees over 6,000 km and we are also the only anti-puncture mousse for bicycles that guarantees a long lasting 7,000 km duration.

Most mousse or semi-mousse anti-puncture bicycle foams are not effective.When they receive many impacts, they either break and become unusable or absorb all the liquid and become useless. In the case of the Tannus Armourthanks to the performance of the compound Aither neither one thing nor the other happens. 

Fewer punctures, less maintenance

As a main feature, even better than the duration, is that they are solutions anti-puncture which means that you will never be stranded 40, 50 or 100 km from home without being able to return. The eBikes apart from the fact that puncture more times on average than conventional bicyclessometimes depending on where the engine is located. it takes a lot of work to repair a puncture. As for the Tannus Armour, in the unlikely event of a puncture, you will always be able to return without any problem but at a speed not exceeding 10km/h. It should be noted that neither the Tannus Armour nor the Tannus Tires solution requires any maintenance.
