Tires came with the bike.
Tire performance is highly dependent on tire pressure, rider weight & conditions.
It's hard to say how a tire would perform from one rider to another.
The cold temperature certainly affect the tire performance, on motorcycles I tend to ride conservatively for a few miles before pushing the limits.
I would imagine the same would apply to heavier ebike with heavier rider.
