@sallymack I ride an E-bike and use Continental urban contact tires. (I'm in EU). You have couple of options: 1. Solid tires - no maintenance but worse ride 2. Tubeless tires - you have to check latex milk inside every 3-6 months but if you get a puncture the latex seals it without you doing anything. 3. Urban tires - you have to check the pressures- you shouldn't run them too hard (depending on the weight of bike+load+you) and they should take 99% of urban abuse. I had mine for 4000 km and got my first flat tire last week. But my rear looked had holes like this (puncture was on the front). So now I change the tires.
