With the forecast for more snow I saw this via the Edinburgh Bicycle Cooperative and was certain there'd be someone on here mad/keen enough to give it a go and feed back... You'll need disc brakes and not care about what you look like though so may rule out a few!

LOL might have to try that as today was the only day so far this winter that I've left the bike at home - in the 300yds leaving my street I was almost off half a dozen times. Snow is no problem, ice however...

Thats pretty cool, just hope they dont get a puncture out on the trail. Having to cut through all the cable ties could be tricky...

Anyone know if you are more or less likely to puncture in the cold ice/snow?
