42mm Conti Nordic spike. The fully stuuded version (240 spikes). They do a version without central studs, which is lighter and rides far better (I assume) on bare asphalt.
They dont look anything like Conti's though, and are made in Finland. So are probably rebranded Nokians, which is a good thing. I've built some new, lighter, yet stronger wheels since. Which have centerlock hubs. For a future upgrade to disc's and a new frame. But I also have front low-riders now*. So I'm basically left with the Salsa Vaya, or a possibly a Singular, as viable framset upgrades.
(*people keep assuming I cant transport stuff, because I'm on the bike. So of course I must carry everything)
