I am buying a second cheaper wheel set for my commuter (2016 Diamondback Haanjo) 700c - I can take up to 45mm tires. I plan on putting some studded tires on them and have rotors on em and ready for an easy swap. I would prefer to go tubeless but might need to run tubes since the wheels will probably be cheaper and not tubeless ready. My roads and bike paths I take only get ice later in the winter when we get snow built up and then it gets ridden/packed down then thaw/freeze turns it into slabs of ice. Anyway, I am wondering what some good quality studded tires are out there for commuting that folks have that are in the 700x45 category. Thanks!
Schwalbe Marathon Winter are available in 700 x 40mm and also in 700 x 50mm.
