Yeah my winter bike (thank god winter is over) is so out of true that the tire rubs on the frame (this happened last day of winter). It's also a suicide hub, and it has two brakes but I still threw down some winter skidding (on snow and ice) it doesn't take too much force to skid on snow. Also I put on new axle bolts and stripped the axel (so I added some washers as spacers where it wasn't stripped (yet)). It worked well though! I was very proud of her making it through the winter.
