1) Do you know if it's possible to fit studded tires (Schwalbe Marathon Winters) and fenders on the Mini? Is there enough clearance?
2) I've seen a few photos with fenders--are the Planet Bike 20" (like those for a Dahon Boardwalk) the way to go?
3) Any other thoughts on winterizing this bike?
Thanks,
JG
The rear rack I have works well as a fender, so I don't get too wet, but fenders will definitely keep the bike cleaner. Here in Seattle my Nano is currently coated with leaves, tree bits and road grime.
I think the $30 fenders mentioned above would be a great upgrade.
