The short version: on the Butterfly Ultra, the front wheel has the motor built into it and the rear doesn’t. That decides the tires. A solid front tire can’t go flat next to the motor, where a puncture is the most awkward repair on the scooter, and thanks to the front suspension it barely changes ride comfort. An air rear tire rides softer — the same one passed more than 1,000 km of testing without a leak. Each wheel gets the tire that suits the job it does on this particular frame.

How to judge an e-scooter brand the honest way: warranty terms versus exclusions, local after-sales and spare parts, the engineering behind safety, how long the frame and battery really last (battery is the pacing item at roughly 400 cycles), the real environmental case, and an evidence checklist before you pay.
