What? 
Highly doubt that. Putting a hub motor on the front wheel is not an easy job. Especially with all the weight at the back I canāt understand how a front wheel can possible get the traction to pull the scooter. Heās done something else with the hub motor mounted a bit differently between the 2 rear wheels.

its possible when you dive in design and doing prototype you can see the things without that everything look its impossible
It is not impossible, yes. But it is going to hurt to ride. It might also be dangerous at high speeds when the motor braking engages. But given this is a slow scooter, testable.

its the design magic cant able to disclose the matrix in public but its possible to make and ride successful
Has anyone tried or explored this TPMS product? Reviews looks decent, but not cheap.
If we can get even half of the battery life claimed (3.5 years), the internal one looks better as no chance of theft.
Though external one is hassle free in replacement, it is not theft-free. (Anti-theft nuts are given, but will be a hassle every time when filling air)

I have a generic brand external tpms. App is in indecipherable english, and connectivity is a hit or miss. But when it does connect (no indication to show connected or not!) the reading is pretty accurate.
However, I ripped it out since removing it every time to fill air was a headache. I know when acceleration is poor, that my air pressure is below acceptable levels and just top up at the petrol bunk.
Would end up going for an internal sensor sometime in the future.

Right, does fitting an internal sensor void warranty?

Should definitely not!. You basically replace the valve cap with the sensor!

If changing the tyre or tyre valve is allowed, then an internal sensor that basically slides into the valve fitting on the inside - should not break any warranty clauses. There is no material change to structure, electronics, performance of the vehicle.

I have not decided yet, but the internal one is in my wishlist. Btw, what is the rim size of Ather 450?
Also, Is Ather TPMS (which is under development) going to fit Ather 450 as well?
I have tried with the external sensor, As @raghav.srinivasan have mentioned they are really a pain to remove when you want to top-up the air . I thought of buying this https://www.amazon.in/SensAiry-SEN2W-R17-R17/dp/B07C53FQC8/ref=pd_rhf_dp_s_ci_mcx_mr_hp_d_1?pd_rd_w=z0cNF&pf_rd_p=c73ae247-df22-4165-a0d3-8a44b3912d44&pf_rd_r=RZ6VZXVTJ8AV0HFR4Z0B&pd_rd_r=1d6c510e-09f0-43c7-88cd-ac4fdafd7d4d&pd_rd_wg=ICJUb&pd_rd_i=B07C53FQC8&psc=1
They needs to be installed at a good tire repair shop mostly because the tires needs to be removed completely and needs to be fixed in. But this is one time trouble I hope, and eliminates all the future troubles

Right, I was referring to the same Product. It has good reviews and many team-bhp owners have used it for their cars over last 2-3 years.
If their battery life claim is reliable, then doing it once in 2 years is much better than being a hassle for every refill.
Please post your feedback if you end up trying.
If I am not mistaken, the sensors will connect via BLE with the android dash. Unfortunately, since our 450s dot. Have any sort of wireless hardware, I doubt it would work for us.
Unless!, Ather decides to allow access to the sensors via the app as well.

Yeah - It wont be available in dashboard. But, if they can still link it thru app like any after-market TPMS works, then should be fine.
Technically, dashboard can still show it just like how Push Location from App works (TPMS -> App -> Cloud -> Dashboard). It will be delayed, but thatās better than not having at all.
@abhishek.balaji - Can you confirm if TPMS is planned to be available for Ather 450 as well? If so, then we would not need to go for a 3rd party one.
This is available at Madhus tyre care at langford road. The last time I had been there, they had offered me to install this (internal TPMS) , but i chose to skip for now. Pockets were tight! š„²
I feel the mi portable tyre inflator gives the current tyre pressure and the convenience of topping up the same time!

Like @raghav.srinivasan said, we can live without any of these accessoriesā¦ Just need regular top-up in home or nearby petrol pumpā¦ Thatās what we did all these years 
We are trying to get the missing TPMS (which is going to be there for 450X).

Mi Air Pump is in my wish listā¦ If not for Covid, I would have got it long backā¦ Because, I was not even using 100 km per month in the past 1 year, did not want to buy and waste my warranty without even using it

This comes at the same price as the TPMS. I recommend you get this.
These Tons will only tell you that your air pressure is low. But the mi compressor is so much more practical.
