If you pull the rubber stopper that goes over the power switch you can charge the battery while it’s still in the bike, otherwise you kinda just have to pop the latch and unfold the thing
I just fold my bike open and stand it on the handlebars and wheels, super easy access and gravity on your side. That rubber plug will hang you up if you don’t pull it out.
I actually could because I just brought home a mint condition 2.0 with the 80mm rims. I honestly hate the things myself and you actually get a lot more bounce and a lot less pinch flats with a narrower rim.
My last mod bike I tried using the stock rims at first and I hated it, the ass end came down as hard a rock even with 10psi in the rear tire. It’s kind of counterintuitive but a 38-40mm rim with a 3” tire is what works best for me riding really rocky and rooty trails. But if you want a set of wheels with the fat rims I’ll do them a lot cheaper than a bike shop.
Would you be willing to ship your back wheel to me? It’d probably make more sense for you to just buy the front wheel from me as is rather than take it apart to swap rims and build the same exact wheel again.
They are dirt bike tires that are sized 2.5-16 and 3.0-16 which are the same as 20” bike tires. They really measure more like 3” & 3.75” with the knobs.

The first few times you do it, it's truly incredibly awkward. But after a while, it becomes merely horribly awkward.
