Hi guys!
I started to "winterize" my little four wheeler. I got a set of chains from a snowblower and put them on the rear wheels. Chains are mandatory with these tires. I tried without them and the wheels would just keep spinning with the bike standing still! Now it has tons of traction, but since I have no fenders it is throwing snow all over the place :lol:
I have another set of chains that will be modified to put on the front wheels (they are too large as is).
For those of you who have mechanical disk brakes, be careful if you plan on riding in the snow. Make sure the snow is not "wet" because the brakes will lose all their power. I learnt that the hard way and ended in a snow bank... Do not make the same mistake!
