I am thinking of getting the Continental Nordic Spike tire for my winter cyclocross commuter bike. The Nordic Spike is a 700 x 42 tire and you can get it in either 240 or 12 hardened steel studs. http://www.conti-online.com/generator/www/de/en/continental/bicycle/themes/tires/city/nordic_spike/nordic_spike_en.html

I would get the 240 studded tire. I live in Winnipeg, Canada and I ride a lot on ice and snow with some asphalt at times.
I have looked at the Nokian W240 tire but it is more expensive and not available where I live.
Has anybody tired or heard anything about the conti Nordic Spike?
Thanks
