• dutchman, but yeah thats why i appropiate an existing build instead of getting a designated frame.

    plus itll look and ride rad.

    which tyre should i take?

  • I got through last winter on a 40c Schwalbe CX Comp. They're available in 35c also.
    I managed to fall down only twice (during the two days we had ice on the streets) and the little snow we saw didn't bother them either.

    They are reasonably light for knobby tires, I haven't had a single puncture on them (now using them for polo) and they don't slow you down to much on the street.

    YMMV though.

  • i accidentally ordered cx pro's, which are 2,5x more expensive.. ah well, they are much lighter, and i think 35 wouldve been pushing it with the caliper brake i want to use. looking fwd to the adventure, the purists will poke their eyes out
