i've been running my Zero FXS mostly around town but lately I've been tempted to take it off the pavement and hit some light trails. The stock tires feel fine on the street but I don't think they're giving me much grip once I roll into dirt or gravel.
Kinda still new to electric bikes so I'm not sure what the best balance is for tires that can handle both street commuting and weekend dirt rides without wearing out too quickly. I don't want to go full knobby and lose comfort on daily rides but I also don't want to slide around on loose stuff. What tires are you guys using on your FXS for that street/dirt mix? Anything you'd avoid? Not sure if using stock in trails are okay.
