If I took an old 27" front wheel and put a studded tire on it and put it up front and just left the 700x23 on the back, do you think that would get me by alright for a short 3 mile c'mute? Its a heck of a lot more convenient than swapping out tubes n' tires every time the weather gets ugly... would it work or make for a really bad ride?
