They work well, really. The falls were really in most difficult conditions where there were deep ruts from car tires that had frozen solidly, and were covered and concealed by deep, freshly fallen snow. Two of the falls were within a dozen feet of each other....just tough to steer and keep the rear end underneath me. The tires performed well other than that one day that I should have stayed home, I suppose.

On this trike, the left rear tire is the only driven wheel from the coaster brake hub. Likewise, the coaster brake only affects the same wheel. The right rear spins freely in either direction, and is not driven or affected by the coaster brake. The front axle is equipped with a drum brake and provides steerage, hence is a natural for a studded tire. Thus, my thoughts that I could get away with my two studded tires. That right rear wheel just holds one side of the back end off the ground.
