If there's a lot of frozen ruts of varying widths or if the snow is too deep to cut through
ok so in your experience what would be too deep to cut through?
I use 35mm studded tires and so far this winter they have been unstoppable.
I see you live more or less where I do (hamilton). Where/what do you ride in? streets/ploughed/salted/icy?
Also we barely had any winter this year... so were they good the last few years?
If skinnies are so good, then why do most commuters have fat MTB tires? are they confuzed? or just becuase they are available?
