MTB tires on Road
OK here's the scenario. I have two road bikes, one is a beater. Just got 20 in. of snow here and I want to keep riding. I live in a nice small town so the roads are not plowed as well but there's also not that much traffic. Now this is my first real winter and was just wondering if I could put MTB tires on my beater road bike? I really don't want to sit inside with a trainer or anything. Would the fatter tires change anything at all? Thanks in advance.
