To be honest my yearly process is I toy with the idea of spiked winter tires - think nah too expensive for a weeks riding, then catch the tube for 4 days until the UK "winter" dissapears.
Would never ride this set up in ice or snow. Rain is fine and hail is ok. It's my winter bike because winters are just wet and minging now and my summer bike is white and a bitch to clean. Just wanted a build that didn't look like shit after a wet or post rain ride. Vanity meets laziness.
