+1 on the above!! I went from a 32mm Schwalbe (700cc) to the 35mm Nokian Hakkela(Whatever 106 studs) and holy guaccamole! Talk about winter training!! This in addition to my work place is moving and I will now have to traverse the Manayunk section of Philadelphia twice a day. (Think the WALL hill climb from the annual bike race here) This on my bike that weighs 36lbs before
my gear. It is going to be an interesting winter.....
