Yep. Just for S&G's I built my Surly 1x1 back up with the spare 700c wheelset that came with my cross bike. It's now running 700x42's,and still has room for fenders. The cross bike also came with a set of 700x40 studded tires,so if we get another Snowpocalypse this year this may just turn out to be my new snow bike.
