The most tire Hiboy fits to anything
The Hiboy P6 Fat Tire Electric Bike runs 26 by 4 inch tires, the largest combination in the entire Hiboy catalogue, electric scooters included. Only the EX11 matches them, and the EX11 costs $430 more and weighs 34 lb more. If what you want is tire, this is the cheapest way to have it.
26×4 tires · 1000W peak · 28 mph Class 3 · 65 lb · 20% climbing
Drawn at six pixels to the inch from Hiboy's published tire sizes, so the relative diameters and widths on this page are true rather than illustrative.
Diameter and width do different jobs. Diameter decides what you can roll over; width decides how much you float on top of something soft. The P6 is the only model here that maximises both.
Four surfaces where a narrow tire stops being fun
Sand
A narrow tire cuts down and digs in. A four-inch one spreads the load and stays near the surface, which is the whole reason fat tires exist.
Snow
Same physics, plus grip. Packed snow and slush are where riders in New York notice the difference most, roughly from December onward.
Gravel
Loose stone moves under a thin tire and steers you with it. More contact patch means the front wheel goes where you point it.
Broken asphalt
The everyday one. A 26-inch wheel drops less far into a pothole than a 20-inch wheel, and four inches of air absorbs what is left.
The cost is energy. Big soft tires have more rolling resistance than narrow hard ones, so every mile on smooth tarmac is drag you are paying for and not using. That shows up directly in the range figures below, and it is why we steer riders whose route is entirely paved toward the EX9 instead.
Hiboy publishes a range, so we quote the range
This is the only model in the line where Hiboy gives a span rather than a single figure, and that is honest of them. Big soft tires make consumption vary more than a narrow tire does, because tire pressure and surface change the drag so much. We print the band as published. We are not going to quote the top of it as the number and we are not going to average it into something tidier.
Both distance bands are measured by Hiboy with a 143 lb rider. Where you land inside them comes down to pressure, surface, weather, load and how much you pedal. Correct tire pressure is the single biggest thing you control, and on a fat tire it matters more than on any other kind, which is why we set it at every service.
The pack lifts out with a key so it charges indoors. At 48V 11.6Ah it is the same size as the EX9's, and the P6 gets less out of it for exactly the reason this whole page is about.
Enough motor to make the tires worth having
Fat tires without power is a bad combination. All that rolling resistance has to be overcome by something, and on an underpowered machine the tires simply make it slow. The P6 gets 750W rated and 1000W peak, which is the joint-strongest rated motor in the range.
That buys a Class 3 rating: 20 mph on the throttle and up to 28 mph on pedal assist. It also buys a 20% climbing figure while carrying 265 lb.
At 65 lb it sits in the middle of the range for weight, well under the EX6F's 71.43 lb and nowhere near the EX11's 99.2 lb. For a machine with wheels this size that is genuinely light, and it is the practical argument for the P6 over the flagship.
- Motor — 750W rated, 1000W peak
- Class — Class 3, up to 28 mph on assist
- Climbing — rated to a 20% grade
- Max load — 265 lb
- Weight — 65 lb
A conventional frame, and what that means for you
Unlike most of this range the P6 has a normal top tube rather than a step-through, so getting on means swinging a leg over the back. Hiboy sizes it for riders between 5′3″ and 6′4″, and that lower limit is the highest in the range.
If lifting a leg over a saddle is awkward for you, this is the wrong model and we would rather say so here than sell you one. The EX6 is the step-through with fat tires; it gives up wheel size and gains a much easier life.
What you get in exchange is a stiffer frame. A top tube is structure, and it is part of why this model carries a stronger motor and a higher climbing rating than the folding EX6F does on the same kind of tire.
Front shocks handle the fork end. There is no rear suspension, which is what separates it from the EX11 and most of the price gap between them.

What a fat tire electric bike asks of you
Two things, and neither is difficult once you know about them.
The first is pressure. A four-inch tire runs at a far lower pressure than a road tire, and the usable window is wide: softer for sand and snow, firmer for tarmac and range. Riders who never touch it end up either sluggish or bouncing, and both feel like a fault with the machine rather than a setting. We check and set it at every service, and we will show you where yours should sit for the riding you actually do.
The second is width. Four inches at each end is wider than most people expect, and it changes what fits. A standard bicycle rack, a narrow shed doorway, a hallway with a radiator in it: all worth measuring before delivery day rather than after. It also needs a fatter tube if you ever puncture, so it is worth carrying the right one.
Beyond that it is a straightforward machine. There is no folding hinge to maintain, no rear shock to service, and a single frame with no colour or configuration decisions attached to it.

The tire, the fork and the shifter
Most of what the P6 costs sits in three places, and all three are things you can put a hand on in the shop rather than read about.
The tire
26 by 4 inches, and the tread is aggressive rather than the smooth centre strip you find on a road-biased fat tire. That is a decision about where this machine is meant to go, and it costs a little rolling speed on tarmac to make it.
The fork
A sprung fork at the front, with four inches of tire doing the rest. There is no rear suspension on this model, which is the single biggest thing separating it from the EX11 and most of the price gap between them.
The shifter
A thumb shifter on the right bar working a rear derailleur. Worth setting up properly, because gears that hunt under load is the most common complaint we hear about any electric bike, and it is almost always cable tension rather than a fault.
What we check before it leaves
Tire pressure set for the riding you actually described. Gear indexing run through every ratio under load rather than on a stand. Brake levers pulled to the bar to confirm they bite where they should. Spokes tensioned, because a wheel that arrives boxed rarely arrives true.
None of that is exotic. It is the difference between a machine that feels right on the first day and one you slowly stop trusting.

For the same tire size with suspension at both ends and a far bigger battery, the EX11 is the flagship. For fat tires on a frame you step into, the EX6 trades wheel size for an easier life and a bigger battery. Here is every fat tire electric bike we stock.
On the brakes: Hiboy lists this model as having front and rear disc brakes and describes them as "hydraulic or mechanical". That wording is theirs, and it means we cannot promise you which type arrives in the box. Call any shop before you order and we will check what is actually in stock rather than guess.

Hiboy P6, answered
How big are the tires on the Hiboy P6?
26 by 4 inches, which is the largest combination Hiboy fits to anything they make. The EX11 matches the size; nothing else in the range comes close.
What are fat tires actually good for?
Soft and broken surfaces. Sand, snow, gravel and bad asphalt, where a narrow tire cuts in and gets steered around by whatever is underneath. The width spreads your weight; the diameter decides what you can roll over.
What do they cost me?
Range and effort on smooth ground. A big soft tire has more rolling resistance, so a fully paved commute uses more battery than it would on a narrower tire. That is exactly why the P6's range figures sit below the EX6's despite a similar battery.
How far does it go on a charge?
Hiboy publishes a band rather than a single number: 25 to 31 miles on the throttle, and 50 to 62 miles with pedal assist, both with a 143 lb rider. We quote the band as published rather than the top of it.
How fast does it go?
20 mph on the throttle, and up to 28 mph on pedal assist, which makes it Class 3.
Are the brakes hydraulic or mechanical?
Front and rear disc brakes, and Hiboy's own sheet says "hydraulic or mechanical" without committing. We are not going to guess on your behalf. Call any shop before you order and we will check what is actually in stock.
How much can it carry?
265 lb for rider and cargo together.
How much does it weigh?
65 lb. For a machine on 26 by 4 inch tires that is genuinely light, and 34 lb less than the EX11.
What size rider does it fit?
Hiboy quotes 5′3″ to 6′4″. That is the highest lower limit in the range, so shorter riders should look at the EX6F, which starts at 4′9″.
Does it have a step-through frame?
No. The P6 has a conventional top tube, so mounting means swinging a leg over the back. If that is awkward, the EX6 is the fat-tire model with a step-through frame.
Does it have suspension?
Front shocks only. Four inches of tire does a lot of the rest. If you want a sprung rear wheel as well, the EX11 is the only model in the range with it.
Is the battery removable?
Yes. The 48V 11.6Ah pack lifts out with a key so it can charge indoors. Six to seven hours from empty.
What colours does it come in?
One. Hiboy builds this model in a single finish, so there is no colour to choose.
Can it be ridden in the rain?
It is IPX4 rated, so rain and wet roads are within it. One safety point worth stating plainly: never charge an electric bike that is wet, or one whose battery looks swollen or damaged. Bring it straight in to us instead.
How does it compare to the EX11?
Same tire size, different machines. The EX11 adds a 4-link rear suspension, a 48V 18Ah battery against this one's 48V 11.6Ah, 35 lb more payload and a torque sensor. It also costs $430 more and weighs 34 lb more. The P6 is the fat-tire ride for people who want the tires without the flagship.
Who services it, and what warranty comes with it?
Our own technicians, at all six shops, with express service available at every one. Hiboy is a brand we carry, so it comes with a year of warranty cover and we handle the claim with Hiboy for you. We service any brand, whether you bought it from us or not.
