Mountain bikes do not work that well on the road- They are for offroad. I now have a road bike and the MTB as well as the mountain Tandem. If it is snowing and the roads have snow on them- I will not ride on the road. Too much fear of ice. But if it is snowing- Out comes the MTB or the Tandem and we are off to the hills. Snow riding is Fantastic. Slow and cold but fantastic.
