TE/TC TE150 winter mode

My old spare set of Husaberg blue DID rims, with studded tires mounted and I'm ready for winter!

I don't use screws anymore. These tires have "Rally Studs" 3-4 mm long installed. These are shorter than "Trelleborg" style with 7-8mm studs. These tires hold up well in varied conditions, where you would kill a pair of long studded tires. I sometime use the longer stud tires in deep snow. New England riders will also have a pair of tires with near flush"Car Studs" installed, for bare ground and rocks. I'm not that cool though!

My Rally Stud tires have multiple seasons on them and are still holding up. Mike Costa in Rhode Island builds them and does a great job. You can ride without them, but they really help you stay in traction!

Rims look good on there! Brrrrr! I'm staying in the warm shop!

What is that white stuff on the ground Here is sunny So Calif we do not know what that is Today it was like 80

I guess it’s time dust the cobwebs off of the old Trelle friction tires, the wife and I were laying out some new trail in our woods today.

Been running studded bikes for past few winter it is a lot of fun. We just use screw in studs and they works good just need to replace couple studs after a each ride. Use to tear apart bike in the winter but last two winter and very low snow we have been running bikes like 11 month of the year and no time to do bike winter rebuild .

Oh, that stings!
