Learn when studded bike tires help on ice, how to choose a compatible winter tire, and how to set up, inspect, and ride them safely.

Set winter bike tire pressure from the tire and rim limits, then make small changes for load, tire volume, snow, ice, temperature, and riding control.

Clean a bike after a wet or salty winter ride with a low-pressure rinse, bike-safe cleaner, careful drying, chain lube, and a safety inspection.
