Many of us have long fantasized about a studded version, but I doubt we'll ever see one.<BR/><BR/>I keep a studded bike for ice, and the Pugsley for snow. Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be one perfect bike for all winter conditions. You'll have a ton of fun on your Fatback, though.Timhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13230350513417318151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15336507.post-87522718156459705122009-01-06T06:06:00.000-09:002009-01-06T06:06:00.000-09:00Hey, I get the impression that you love the sub-ze...Hey, I get the impression that you love the sub-zero temperatures! In fact, you've been a huge inspiration in getting me out into the cold on my mountain bike this winter. I used to think that it was simply impossible to stay warm at temperatures below 20 deg (above zero). I know - what a wimp. But, you've set me straight so I've now ridden in zero deg for hours.<BR/><BR/>One question: How do the wide endomorph tires do on icy roads? I'm about to get a Fatback. I've got great confidence in how it'll do on the trails but my worry is about the sections of sometimes icy road that I ride between trails. Any insights? Any word of studded endomorphs coming out?<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the inspiration!KBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16885661679762446456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15336507.post-52027056333607635072009-01-05T21:05:00.000-09:002009-01-05T21:05:00.000-09:00yeah... sorry about the cold. there was really not...yeah... sorry about the cold. there was really nothing any of us could do about that.<BR/>(did someone say 20 below at the science center!?)bikegirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05774265628828868112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15336507.post-80854998397366560402009-01-05T18:02:00.000-09:002009-01-05T18:02:00.000-09:00What a great trip!
