Last year I inherited this bike from a cousin and I always stopped riding in the winter time due to icy conditions. This year I decided to spring for studded tires finally and I had the confidence to change them out myself without needing any tutorials! It took me a few hours but I feel like I learned a lot about my bike in that time lol. I even managed to keep the chain attached! (The last 2 times I took the rear tire off I accidentally took the chain off with it!)
My next project for this long-running DIY bike will be to attach a pannier to the rear and a fender for the front! This is exciting for me as I’ve never been confident in fixing things before!
(And I did a test-run on the bike – it rides just fine! It handles snow wayyy better than the old tires!)

I like that bike. What brand and model is it? Is it adaptable with road tires?
