    More range yes. For torque, human assist has more input for a lighter wheel and motor, but fat tire motors have 50%+ more torque. Smaller diameter wheels further help torque, and the motor alone accelerating the wheel faster makes any human input just extra.

      Yeah but that would also hold true for a skinnier wheel (part of why cargo bikes don’t use superfat tires),
