Went out for a leisure ride and did not film it. Well it turned into a longer ride than I expected. This Lectric Xp eBike you want to ride and ride and ride. Cause it is so much fun.
I ended up on the St Vain Open Space Trail that follows the St Vrain River. Fantastic ride.
The problem is right in the middle it is closed so there is a detour off the path and on to the street in a bad area that tends to have a lot of junk on the street.
Well I got a flat from a push pin tack. The back tire went flat really quickly.
Luckily I was able to take an Uber that saved me. The full story is in the video above.
But Now I have a plan in place for just in case.
I suggest the first thing you do with any bike is slime both tires.
Slime Tube Repair Sealant, 16 oz. https://amzn.to/2RUgTxz I put 8oz in each tire.
Tire Inflator Sealer
I carry a can of this to seal and inflate. Would much rather have an easy fix without removing the tire to get home to then replace the tube.

Tuffy Lines
Also I plan to use Tuffy liners. These are great I have used them before and never got a flat.
