I haven't had mine freeze yet, but when it's really crappy, I don't need to ride at all. When we got snowed in for a week this past February, I just walked.

It can depend on the mechanism, too. Some have close tolerances and small parts that don't like dirt (Speedplay), and some seem impervious to just about everything (CB, Time).
