Description

For many of us who live in more temperate regions, the likelihood of a midday thaw followed by an overnight freeze means that ice may be frequently encountered.

Whether off-road or on-road this is where studs come into their own. They are not failsafe, and you still need to treat ice with due respect, but studs do offer a big improvement in control to the extent that you can easily be lulled into a false sense of security, only to slip straight onto your backside soon after stepping off the bike.

Studs are available as off-road tyres with wide spaced lugs, or on road tyres with a much closer spaced tread. It should be noted that compared to regular tyres, there is increased rolling resistance (making pedalling harder), and the studs can be pretty noisy on bare roads.

In climates where snow and ice persist through the winter, riders would tend to use studs throughout the season, whereas in regions such as the UK where ice is a more sporadic event, a quick change of tyres or even better a spare set of wheels made up ready seems to be the more efficient approach.

Schwalbe Schwalbe Snow Stud Performance Kevlar Rigid Road Tyre 5 5 2 2
good value for the money Those tires work like a charm in canadian winter road conditions. 04 January 2013
Really Work Purchased some of these last year and proved their worth in snow and ice. Using on my mountain bike so I can continue commuting to work as normal. Been going on ungritted roads and hills on purpose just because you can! Really confident with them and great fun. Only problem was getting them on as quite stiff, but might be my rims and/or technique. Managed to damage a couple of inner tubes in the process but worth the hassle in the end. Going to keep them on a spare bike over the winter so won't have to keep swapping. Also quite heavy, but not such an issue when ploughing through snow anyway. Good quality and looking to be durable. Not lost any of the studs as yet 01 December 2010

Answer: 
Here is a quote from an article I read recently:

People often ask me if one studded tire in front is sufficient. Well, one studded tire in front will help keep you from crashing hard and breaking your collar bone or your pelvis. When the front tire slides, you go down quite fast and without warning. If the rear tire slides you can still go down, but not as fast, and the results are usually not so calamitous, since you usually have enough time to get a foot out of the pedal. But with just a front studded tire, you can still crash. You can still not be able to climb a hill with black ice. You can still not be able to get out of an icy rut. You can still spin on a downhill curve. You can still lose control in a busy intersection with lots of traffic. And you can still spin during hard braking. So, for the life of me, I can't see any reason to use a single studded tire in front, except to save a few dollars.

I do occasionally sell a single tire to someone who's been told by a friend that you only need a front studded tire. Similarly, there are many folks who think you can get away with snow tires just on the drive wheels of an automobile, which leads to cars spinning out of control because the front or rear has so much more traction than the other. Invariably I get a call a week later from the same customer ordering a second tire. He ends up with no cost savings, since he has to pay twice for shipping.

If you are buying tires for riding single track in winter, and you need to save money, there is a way to do it. Get a very aggressive tire for the front, an Extreme 294 or Ice Spiker, and then use an Extreme 120, Mount & Ground or Snow Stud in the rear. You won't get quite as good grip while climbing a steep trail as you would by having aggressive tires front and rear, but if your trails aren't too steep, you should be just fine. The more aggressive front tire will still be there to get you through icy ruts. For the commuter riding paved roads, there really is no alternative to having the W106 or A10 on both wheels. So unless you're riding to work on rail trails, I strongly recommend you use studded tires on both wheels, not just the front.

Answer: 
Might be able to get away with just a back one but the front may be a bit twitchy with just a normal tyre, particularly if ice rather than snow. To be honest I'd get a pair and then no worries in my experience.

Answer: 
I would recommend purchasing 2, as if you only have one on the front you will get no power from the rear wheel and if you only have one on the rear you will have no traction on the front.

Answer: 
You will need to measure the clearance between your current tyres and the frame/fork. If you have enough clearance to go larger you should be fine with these tyres but give yourself enough clearance for the tyres/wheels to flex a little and for mud clearance too.

Any idea on the availability of these tyres?

I have been trying to track down some 700mm snow tyres for my CX bike for quite a while and it seems they never come to the UK.
Will Wiggle be getting some stock in any time soon?

Answer: 
Snow/Ice studded tyres have been in huge demand this year due to the weather we have had over the past 12-14 months. The supply for the UK hasn't been big enough so there have been some long wait times, we do hope to receive stock soon though. Sorry for the wait.

Answer: 
Although 29er and 700c road tyres share the same bead diameter, you may find some compatibility issues with regards to the width of you current rims.
