* I have a 2009 Jamis hybrid, that has fitted with Shimano 105, Mavic Equipe's, brooks saddle, etc,,, I'm very happy with the setup, but want to ride through the winter,,, I live in South Jersey so we don't get that much snow,, (most of the time) if we do it's usually gone it a couple days,, or the roads are clear,,,, I don't want to ruin my bike with salt or other things the winter and cold weather can throw at you,,,,, So I was thinking,,,,,,,,,
Should I,,,,
A. Get a winter set of wheels,,, I can pick up a set of Mavic Open Pro's (used) for around $100.00
B. Just get a cheap single speed to ride for the winter months,,, not alot of maintenance
C. Just ride my Jamis as is and don't worry about it,,, everything will be fine and in the spring,,, get a good tune up,,,,,,,,,,
D. other thoughts,,,,,,,,,,
here is a pic of my bike,,,,,,
thanks
