Riding a bike equipped with Nokian Hakkapeliitta W106 studded tires, I headed out into the snow. Shot with an Oregon Scientific ATC-2K camera.

  • I have the same tires (W106) They work better riding, when the streets are cleared of snow and on icy roads, or where no cars have driven...

  • @oppohoppa Definitely true. The W106 tires aren't very good at climbing out of ruts, but show them some flat ice or compacted snow, and they have tons of grip!

  • Awesome video! I've never tried riding my bike in the snow. It's a good thing there weren't any cars driving to screw up your safety. At least it shows that it can be done, riding a bike in the snow.

  • Bike Nashbar has studded 700c tires for way less!

  • I like your homemade tire wiper. I didn't know if anybody still used those. I used to do winter rides on an old 80's road bike turned fixed wheel bike, with cheap gumwall tires. I was surprised what I could do with the bike but I wore a BMX helmet anyway.

  • How much better is the 2k camera vs the 1k camera?
