my brake on my bike is already pretty worn by 2 months and end up needing to adjust it (and clean the rims).
This is why my next winter bike will have discs. my rims can start the day clean, get covered in sticky ice paste (salt melted snow at around -10) in the morning, then have an abrasive layer of dry salt in the evening.
Disc brakes + belt + hub gear = much less hassle.
Ideally I'd like a cycloX frame, as I'm a competitive nodder.
