Been having a blast living car-free with my Jones SWB, embracing the low-tire-pressure lifestyle. Also, hello lemmy / fedi bikers!

But it makes it harder to roll, so you spend more energy pedaling. Especially in the city on a pavement you can roll much easier with higher pressure.

That's why I just pump them up when I'm on (decent quality) pavement.

In England I always low pressure my ebike, so much better on slippery roads. Harder to push, yes, for the motor not for me
