Regarding the tires. I don't know if it messes with how you ride or anything, but we have the tire slime in all of our tires and we keep a portable Ryobi electric bike pump with us when we go on trails.
Brakes suck. For maintenance I actually enjoy the regular brakes instead of the hydraulic ones. You have to realistically change your break pads every month or two and it's difficult to do with the hydraulic ones by comparison.
