How much of a difference do low friction tires make versus mountain bike tires? I have yet to purchase my hub motor/controller/batteries, but for now I will be riding it to work via pedal power. Would I have an easier time if I swapped out the mountain bike tires or should I just leave em?
Also, are the Crystalyte X-504, and 408 motors solid, or do you stick a skewer through them to secure them to your frame?
On a completely unrelated note. I have everything I need for my bike to convert. Spent about 900 bucks including the bike itself. U-Lock, chain lock, Topeak seatwedge pack w/ spare tube, patch kit, tire gauge, bike multi tool, leatherman (Had this already), camelbak, Topeak cargo rack and trunk bag, Topeak bike pump, Giro bike helmet, and pitlock skewers/bolts for the headset, front and rear hub, brakes, and seatpost.
