Many people don't even think of the concept because it's not available for cars on the basis of being illegal, but it's perfectly fine to use for bicycles and can be freely purchased.

Yeah I just change them as needed (a spare rear wheel is pretty expensive when the wheel has a big motor in the center of it), but I also live somewhere where "as needed" works out to be: put them on in november/december, and then take them off in like, april, so I'm not swapping on the fly

Maybe it's because nobody wants them in 26"x2" size but apparently they're on sale for like $65/tire rn. even cheaper than I got them at my local bike shop last year
