I believe in colder temps they can be problematic, but do not have personal experience, just more that I dont want to find out that in cold there are issues. I ride as soon as the snow, ice and salt is gone and ride until it arrives, so ride in 0c and colder often--not the time to find out a patch has come loose...a real pain in the keester.
