I'd be trying to ride the Crockett, but surely you could get some guards in there with narrower slick tyres.
That or the fixed, but having done a fair few winters of fixed riding I find it kind of limiting after a while, but I'll probably use my pompino with guards at some point this winter.
I really hate cleaning bikes, so for me guards are a must, although I've discovered a nearby Jet Wash which might make things a bit easier this winter.
Alternatively, don't ride your bike on wet days and turbo instead.
