Contrasts and new tires

Olov.S

Finally got my hands on VEE rubbers Snowshoe. The snowshoe is supposed to be 4.7" But the only measure around 4.3. Which suits the Mukluk just fine since it´s made for 4.0" tires. They fit fine in the frame but the chain line is a bit to tight with just 5 millimeter left to the… Continue reading Contrasts and new tires

Ice ice baby

Olov.S

Since temperature has dropped to comfy -16°c(?) I took a little spin up river today. A damp warm beginning of winter. Followed by a few super cold weeks and no snow dumping has made the ice perfect for riding. You can literally ride any where you like. Go in one direction and just, hey! I… Continue reading Ice ice baby
