    Maybe a weight limit, too? You don’t need a fatbike in the city.

      …wide tires don’t mean that the bike’s heavy, my dude.
      A cheapo walmart bike with mostly steel parts and other dead weight like a kickstand and a basket can easily be heavier than a decent frame with wide tires.

        The tires themselves are heavy, and they very often go with an oversized frame. Some of these eBike SUVs are genuine monsters. Pretty scary for other cyclists and pedestrians.
