nope, bad idea. Make a studded tire or 2 like I did. They work really good. I used 3/4" sheet metal screws through panaracer fire xc pro tires.
Pretty good idea..thanx, i bet it'll be cheaper too.:D
If you want to see one of those things in action, check out the Beatles movie HELP! .
Coincidently, they featured the so-called "new" ski bike on Good Morning America about two months ago. I couldn't see much difference between those and the old ones. Anyway, after you see people trying to ride them it becomes pretty obvious why they never catch on.
I hope so. What do you'all think about the studded tire in the rear and ski in front? Or would the studded in front be better?
