Here's the current incarnation of my winter commuter:

(might change pic if I get access to better camera)



Of note:

On-One Il Pompino (gift from wife for my birthday!)
Nokian W106 700x35 (excellent in winter on compact snow and ice)
Avid BB7 Disc Brake (again excellent when snow/ice starts to stick to everything including bike)
Bontrager Grippy Tape (always grippy even when wet!)
Surly Dingle, 17t/19t (for those days when conditions change while at work, my derailleur is a 15mm wrench)
Crank Bros. Smarty Pedals (were cheap, but I can tell these will die quickly)
NiteRider BlowTorch HID (people seem to take me a bit more seriously with the 40W of light)
Planet Bike SpeedEZ fenders (a little too small for tires, but do the job...)
Surly hubs laced to Salsa Delgado Cross rims (my first wheel build!)
