Who has a winter xc bike and what is it?
I'm looking for ideas for something for all weather xc rides to keep my Mega all nice.
No fat bikes please :-)

    Have something like eleven bikes. Obviously N+1 so I can have one for each month.
    They all get used whenever.

  • I have xc skis for the winter - does that count?

  • Nope. Normal people would just clean it. Only really matters where you ride a lot on the road with salt.
